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

Now that tinkering has finally come to fruition with [Phang]’s TraLog shield, a single Arduino shield that combines GPS tracking with a GSM and GPRS transceiver.

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.

In conclusion, Jaymis Loveday’s Arduino-powered VR camera tracker is a remarkable project that showcases the potential of combining Arduino with virtual reality technology.

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.
