Raspberry Pi Pico GPS Tracker Tutorial: Complete Guide ppt
- 2. Raspberry Pi PicoReal-Time GPS Tracker Project Build a real-time GPS tracker with Raspberry Pi Pico Uses SIM800L GSM module (for data transmission) and Neo-6M GPS module (for location) Sends live location to the cloud using GeoLinker API Cost-effective IoT solution for tracking vehicles, assets, or pets Build Time: 4–6 hrs | Cost: $30–50 | Difficulty: Beginner–Intermediate 2
- 3. Required Components 3 Raspberry PiPico / Pico W (microcontroller) SIM800L GSM/GPRS Module Neo-6M GPS Module + Antenna 2G SIM Card (for GSM) Breadboard & Jumper wires Power Supply: 3.7V–4.2V (LiPo or buck converter, ~2A) LEDs (status indicators)
- 4. Neo-6M GPS →Provides latitude & longitude via satellites Raspberry Pi Pico → Reads GPS data, processes it, and prepares payload SIM800L GSM → Sends data to cloud (HTTP request) GeoLinker API → Stores & shows data on live map Offline Mode → If no network, data is buffered locally and synced later Working Principle 4
- 5. Applications 5 Vehicle tracking &fleet management Asset and parcel monitoring Pet tracking beacon Emergency SOS button with location Delivery & logistics tracking
