A $150-cost technology founded by a young Tanzanian investor helps to stop a wave of car thefts, which are fueled by the black market for stolen parts in the country.

A young inventor has created Tanzania's first locally-made car alarm system.
Some say that the system could help stop a wave of car thefts, which are fueled by the black market for stolen parts.
The system uses sensor and microchip technology and costs $150 and it alerts the owner with a call, if the car is tampered with or stolen.
