MICRO GPS TRACKER

Quinten heeft onze allerkleinste GPS tracker gebouwd. Dit is écht de kleinste die we tot nu toe hebben gemaakt. Deze kan je online op de kaart volgen.

Deze doet het bijna, de laatste dingetjes worden nu geregeld.

Met hetzelfde idee gaan we vanaf 1 februari aan de slag om een spel te bouwen. In het spel gaan teams de binnenstad in, om gebieden in de stad te veroveren,  en tegelijk met milieu metingen de binnenstad in kaart te brengen.

Onze Junior IOT kanjers hebben vanalles geleerd over solderen, electronica, GPS, programmeren, meten, én ook over het verzenden van meetgegevens over het (gratis) draadloze netwerk van The Things Network.
De beschrijving hoe alles aangesloten wordt kan je vinden op onze github.
Hiervoor heb je genoeg aan een arduino, een gps module en een lora zend module. En natuurlijk de software van de github.

Junior IOT – Smart City Challenge 2018 – Fablab de Kaasfabriek

Inexpensive low-quality Lora32u4 GPS tracker for #juniorIOTchallenge 2018

Inexpensive low-quality Lora32u4 GPS tracker

    this set of folders is for #JuniorIOTchallenge - Smart City Challenge 2018
             met leerling teams bij fablab de Kaasfabriek in Alkmaar
                     deze software op het internet is natuurlijk geheim...
                                  ...anders kunnen ze makkelijk afkijken!
                                  
  previous iteration is Junior IoT Baloon Challenge february 2017
  so for ora location transmittor with GPS and rfm95 see

IOT TTN message format

    Important: bytes 0 to 8 (nine bytes) are agreed format for TTNmapper.org 
      who will ignore any further bytes. They expect SF7 signal, which is our 
      default choice also for other reasons.
