The Server starts streaming video/ audio and location data, which application receives and renders in real time. This enables authorities to watch video and listen to the activities in the vehicle and observe changing vehicle locations on map, speed and direction of travel of the vehicle. The application allows necessary action to be taken at an appropriate time such as locking the doors and switching off the vehicle ignition prior to apprehending the offenders.
