It’s getting harder to steal a car. They’re difficult to start without the proper key and if someone was able to do so, a thief may not get far as cars these days can be tracked, and even remotely disabled. So thieves are changing their tactics. They’re now stealing parts of cars rather than the car as whole. One of the more popular items to steal is the wheels as they tend to be untraceable.
This is where Project Overlord comes in. With their new Wheel Anti-Theft Tracking Device & Mobile App, RimTech will alert vehicle owners when their wheels have been tampered with, and will track the owner’s wheels to the theft location within 10ft.
In short, the RimTech system is made up of a wheel tracking device with a corresponding mobile app. If your wheels get stolen, you can track them down (presumably with the help of the police). RimTech is currently under development and is being crowdfunded at IndieGoGo.com. The company is looking for support of the IndieGoGo campaign to help launch the RimTech device in October 2015. It sounds interesting so it may be worth a look.
