Abstract:
Car rentals are a business that has seen high demand in current times. The
need to experience comfortable transportation without spending a huge amount of
money to own and maintain an individual transportation unit in addition to paying for
its taxes are the main driving factors behind the success of the car rental business.
Like any other business, it is not exempt from the risk of failure. Several
factors can cause disadvantages in running this business. One of the main challenges
faced is the risk of car theft. Losing a car creates significant financial and operational
losses for car rental businesses. Another factor that can become a risk to car rentals is
non-compliance with rental regulations which could result in car unit damage,
ultimately leading to a decrease in the quality of the car unit that is owned by the car
rental.
Our Smart Car Rent Management System will help car rentals in monitoring
the location, temperature, and smoking presence of their currently used cars using
location tracker module, smoke detection sensor, and a temperature sensor.
Additionally, our system also offers functionalities to manage car units, create
bookings, manage customers and track revenue from each car unit. Through various
testing and evaluation, the system has proven to solve the potential problems that
endangers car rental businesses.
