GPS 4G HAT: The Raspberry Pi becomes a GPS Tracker
The GPS 4G HAT is an expansion board for the popular single board computer Raspberry Pi. Besides the recording of GPS positions, the product allows transmitting data via 4G and to detect motion by means of the integrated motion sensor. Furthermore, the GPS 4G HAT provides additional input and output connections. This makes it easy to integrate into existing projects and to create new solutions that go beyond pure GPS tracking. A software library is provided to support and supports the communication between the Raspberry Pi and the GPS 4G HAT.
What can you do with GPS 4G HAT?
The focus of the GPS 4G HAT is the freedom of implementation of own projects. If a project has additional or special requirements, this is no problem. The GPS 4G HAT can be integrated into any project. There are (almost) no limits.
Features:
4G module with support for NB IoT and LTE Cat-M1.
SIM card slot and therefore free choice of provider
Integrated GNSS module with use of GPS and GLONASS
3-axis accelerometer
3 built-in LED
2 LEDs to inform about the status of the communication module (power and network availability)
1 LED that can be freely configured by the developer
2 Buttons: One to reset the communication module, a second one, which can be freely implemented by a developer can be implemented
4 digital inputs (2 x optical isolated)
4 digital outputs (2x optical isolated, 2x max. 1 A)
Measurement at the signals RxD, TxD, SCL and SDA via separate pin headers
Operation in temperature range from -20 °C to 70 °C
The pin header of the GPS 4G HAT is pin compatible with the Raspberry Pi 3 / 4 / Zero
An open source software library to enable communication between the -shield and the Raspberry Pi
I²C connector for external sensors
