Abstract: ABSTRACT The present disclosure relates to tamper detection for packages during transit. The system (100) detects package tampering using a hall-effect magnetic sensor (106) that monitors a magnet element (102) affixed to a package seal boundary (202), generating a seal-state signal indicating intact or breached seal conditions. An inertial measurement unit (108) measures linear acceleration and angular velocity along three orthogonal axes. A hardware processor (104) receives the seal-state signal and measurement data, deriving acceleration and angular velocity magnitudes. When a seal breach transition coincides within a predetermined time window with acceleration magnitude exceeding a first threshold or angular velocity magnitude exceeding a second threshold, the processor (104) energizes a GNSS receiver (112) from sleep state to acquire geographic coordinates. The processor (104) then generates a tamper alert data packet (120) containing the position coordinates and transmits it to a remote receiver (118), discriminating genuine tampering from normal transit-induced disturbances.
