VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A vehicle security system for monitoring a vehicle and notifying a user based on the occurrence of an event, the vehicle security system comprising:
- at least two image capture devices positioned at predetermined locations of a vehicle for capturing and transmitting images of a target object;
a plurality of sensors configured to generate a plurality of sensor data variables based on a detection of the target object;
a global positioning system tracking module for generating and transmitting signals based on a position of the vehicle to a monitoring device;
a control module for receiving the captured images of the target object and the generated sensor data variables, the control module configured to analyze the received images and the received sensor data variables based on predefined criteria to trigger a plurality of auxiliary units, wherein the control module transmits the received images and the sensor data variables based on the predefined criteria to the monitoring device; and
the monitoring device configured to receive the transmitted images and the sensor data variables from the control module, wherein a graphical user interface of the monitoring device displays the images and the sensor data variables for monitoring the vehicle and notifying the user based on the occurrence of the event.

Abstract
A vehicle security system for monitoring a vehicle and notifying a user includes at least two image capture devices (ICD), sensors, a global positioning system tracking module (GPSTM), a control module (CM), and a monitoring device. The ICD are positioned at predetermined locations of the vehicle for capturing and transmitting images of a target object. The sensors generate sensor data variables based on a detection of the target object. The GPSTM generates and transmits signals based on a position of the vehicle to a monitoring device. The CM receives the captured images and sensor data variables. The CM analyzes the received images and sensor data variables based on predefined criteria to trigger auxiliary units. The CM transmits the images and sensor data variables based on the predefined criteria to the monitoring device. A graphical user interface displays the images for monitoring the vehicle and notifies the user.
