        abstract = {People who travel often or people on vacations would always expect their vacation to be filled with good memories but this travel can be a traumatic memory too when the baggage which has all the essential items of the travelers is lost. As the baggage is the most essential item for a traveler it is important to ensure its safety to prevent the loss or theft of the same. Therefore, the IoT Based Baggage Tracking System proposes an enhanced technology through which an IoT based device is built and the same is installed in the baggage of the passengers and giving real time access to the location of the baggage to its users throughout the travel. The device achieves this possibility of getting the location of the baggage through the GPS Module that is installed in the device. The Motion detector used in the device ensures to notify or alert the user about the movement of the baggage far from the user along with the location to prevent theft if someone tries to steal the baggage. The device proposed to be built comes into use in various locations such as the airports, railway stations, bus stops, cruise ships and other public places too. The device also integrates the BEACON technology to ensure the user could access the location of the baggage even when the baggage is passed through the conveyor belt. As this challenged the previous existing system the above-mentioned drawback is also solved through this proposed technology. },
