Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0132479A1] A vehicle anti-theft device (10) comprises an on-board cellular phone transceiver unit (14) that provides a two-way communications link, via a GSM-based telephone network, with an authorised user of the vehicle fitted with the device. The device (10) includes sensing means (72) for sensing a condition, the condition typically either being an alarm condition such as the unauthorized entry into the vehicle or an alert condition informing the user of a status of the vehicle or unit. The device (10) further includes a plurality of vehicle immobilizing devices (22) for immobilizing the vehicle. The transceiver unit (14) is arranged to transmit an alarm signal or an alert signal to the authorised user so as to inform the user of the condition, with the unit (14) in turn being responsive to a remote command signal emanating from the user. Typically, the device (10) includes a voice module (54) for providing voice prompts to the user via the telephone network, with the user then providing the command signals in response to the voice prompts.
