The Ferret is a high-altitude balloon tracking hardware package. Created by [Adam Greig] and [Jon Sowman], it uses an Arduino to gather NMEA data from a GPS unit, format the data into a string ...

This makes the Arduino GPS data logger not just a simple tracking device, but a comprehensive tool for data analysis and research.

The system uses an Arduino Uno, a GSM shield, a GPS module, and a few other smaller parts. The idea here is pretty simple: you hide the Arduino somewhere in the car, hook it up to the battery, and ...

That said, it’s pretty easy to build using an Arduino, a GSM shield, a GPS system, and a handful of other components. The whole system is strapped and locked to the bottom of the saddle.

John Boxall, author of the new book Arduino Workshop, shares a few of the projects from his book on how to get started with the microcontroller. (Click the links to see PDFs of the complete ...

The device includes a GPS for tracking its position, an accelerometer for motion sensing, a GSM card for wireless communication, and an Arduino to control it all.
