Wi-Fi module ESP8266’s Vcc and GND pins are directly connected to 3.3V and GND of Arduino and CH_PD is also connected with 3.3V.
ARDUINO ROYALTEK GPS HOW TO
Go through here to learn “ How to Use GPS with Arduino” and get the coordinates. 12 Volt adaptor is used to power the GPS Module.
ARDUINO ROYALTEK GPS SERIAL
By default Pin 0 and 1 of Arduino are used for serial communication but by using SoftwareSerial library, we can allow serial communication on other digital pins of the Arduino.
ARDUINO ROYALTEK GPS SOFTWARE
By using Software Serial Library here, we have allowed serial communication on pin 10 and 11, and made them Rx and Tx respectively and left the Rx pin of GPS Module open. Here Tx pin of GPS module is directly connected to digital pin number 10 of Arduino. This LCD is connected at 14-19 (A0-A5) Pins of Arduino. There is a 16x2 LCD optionally connected for displaying the status. The whole process is properly shown in the Video at the end.Ĭircuit for this ‘ Vehicle Tracking using Google Maps project’ is very simple and we mainly need an Arduino UNO, GPS Module and ESP8266 Wi-Fi module. Now by clicking this link user redirects to Google Maps with the coordinate and then he/she will get the Vehicle Current Location at the Red spot on the Google Maps. When user refreshes the webpage Arduino gets the GPS coordinates and sends the same to webpage (local server) over Wi-Fi, with some additional information and a Google maps link in it. That means, user needs to refresh webpage. After it Arduino initialize GPS for getting coordinates and the LCD shows a ‘Page Refresh message’. And then Arduino extract the required data from received data by GPS.īefore this, Arduino sends command to Wi-Fi Module ESP8266 for configuring & connecting to the router and getting the IP address. Then we need to send these coordinates from GPS to our Arduino by using UART. GPS module communicates continuously with the satellite for getting coordinates. To track the vehicle, we need to find the Coordinates of Vehicle by using GPS module. In this Vehicle Tracking System using Google Maps, GPS Module is used for getting the Location Coordinates, Wi-Fi module to keep send data to computer or mobile over Wi-Fi and Arduino is used to make GPS and Wi-Fi talk to each other. When you click on that link, it takes you on Google Maps, showing your vehicles location. In this project, we will send the location coordinates to the Local Server and you just need to open a ‘webpage’ on your computer or mobile, where you will find a Link to Google Maps with your Vehicles Location Coordinates. Here we are building more advanced version of Vehicle Tracking System in which you can Track your Vehicle on Google Maps. Previously we have built similar project in which Location coordinates of Vehicle are sent on Cell Phone, check here ‘ Arduino based Vehicle Tracker using GPS and GSM. If you have GPS system installed in your vehicle, you can track you Vehicle Location, and its helps police to track the Stolen Vehicles. Vehicle Tracking System becomes very important now days, especially in case of stolen vehicles.
