Abstract
A vehicle theft-prevention apparatus can include at least one computing device coupled to a first sensor and a second sensor that are configured to sense a first and a second type of measurement in a vehicle, respectively. The at least on computing device can be configured to read a plurality of measurements of the first type of measurement from the first sensor at a predetermined frequency. In response to one of the plurality of measurements exceeding a predetermined threshold, the at least one computing device can read at least one measurement from the second sensor. Based on the at least one measurement from the second sensor, the at least one computing device can determine that a person has entered the vehicle.
