Vehicle Tracking

We're all familiar with live GPS tracking; it tells us where a vehicle or device is right now. But what if the system could do more than just show the location? That's where geofencing using IoT comes in.  Imagine receiving an instant alert the moment a vehicle leaves home, reaches college, enters the office, or moves into a restricted area. Instead of…

This project involves creating your own GPS tracker using the Xiao-ESP32-S3 microcontroller. Usually, making a GPS tracker needs extra parts like a SIM card, a GSM module, and other communication tools to send location data to a phone or computer. Building a GPS tracker with Seeed Studio XIAO has never been easier. But that’s not an issue anymore. At Circuit Digest,…

Valtrack V4 by Valetron Systems is a GPS vehicle tracking device designed for 4G-LTE CAT1 networks with global band support. The device is built around the Espressif ESP32-C3FH4 RISC-V chipset. It helps log routes, track locations in real-time, and prevent theft through an onboard LIS3DH 12-bit, 3-axis accelerometer motion sensor. 

It connects directly to a vehicle’s 12 V lead-acid…

In the present world of interconnected devices, there is a lot happening in IoT. Tracking assets, monitoring movement, and analyzing routes are some of the most essential tasks, and they have never been easier, at least on the front end. While basic solutions that you can see in prior projects, such as this Arduino Vehicle Tracker using ESP8266 and IoT-Based GPS…

In an era where digital privacy has become a major concern worldwide, India has seen a rise in incidents where personal data, including sensitive information, is being easily accessed, misused or exposed. This issue has sparked debates about the safety of citizens private details, particularly related to vehicle registrations and driving licenses. The growing reach…

The main objective of this project is to simplify the parking system by connecting all the parking stations of any city or town via the internet and make the data accessible to the users. This helps the users to know the parking slot left in real time and also helps them to find the best closest parking station for them. This reduces the time consumption in finding…

A GPS tracker is one of the most simple and interesting projects in the field of electronics, and for one of our projects we needed to track the position of a vehicle, so we started looking for circuits on the internet and were very surprised to find out that there were not a lot of modules available online that can do both GSM and GPS at the same time. On top of…

When starting a project, the first challenge is to select the best parts for it. In the case of a tracking project, the main parts would be the GPS and GSM modules are the main components. This article will help you find the best ones from the choices available in the market. We will discuss the features or specifications you should check before sourcing these parts…

GPS modules are widely used in electronics applications to track the location based on longitude and latitude coordinates. Vehicle tracking system, GPS Clock, Accident Detection Alert System, traffic navigation, surveillance system etc. are few of the examples where GPS functionality is essential. GPS provides Altitude, Latitude, Longitude, UTC time…

Knowing the whereabouts of a particular object/person has always been comforting. Today, GPS is being extensively used in asset management applications like Vehicle Tracking, Fleet Tracking, Asset monitoring, Person tracking, Pet Tracker etc. For any tracking device the primary design consideration will be about its battery expectancy and monitoring range. Considering both,…
