Wio Tracker - GPS, BT3.0, GSM, Arduino Compatible

“I like how easy it is to use with the Arduino IDE and Grove ecosystem.” – Lisa Li, Product ManagerThe Wio Tracker (Wireless Input Output) is an open source gateway based on the ARM Cortex-M0+ and Arduino M0 MCU which enable faster IoT GPS solutions. This Arduino and Grove compatible development board helps you track nearly any moving thing on the planet and then upload that data wirelessly. By integrating Bluetooth 3.0 and GPRS (an LTE solution is planned for release in Q3), the Wio Tracker allows for flexible communication solutions. While there are GPS/GPRS shields available for Arduino and other development boards, Seeed believes that having a single board solution is the best approach to your project. The Arduino and Grove compatibility allows for quicker development through numerous libraries and a supportive community. The GPS library which will be available with the board is not just limited to Arduino – it can function just as well if you chose to develop in C/C++. With 6 Grove connections available developers can plug in any combination of out 180+ sensors and actuators to make any project and solve any problem. Simplifying the prototyping and development phase is our goal.The Wio Tracker is well suited for outdoor projects where the device can connect to the GPS satellites and provide a real-time location of the item it is attached to. The GPRS provides a moderate bandwidth which allows immediate interaction between the user and device. Some example projects could be a bicycle sharing service, tracking pets or livestock, locating a vehicle, or even keeping track of a child.We mentioned earlier the Wio Tracker is a gateway to faster IoT solutions — and we meant it! Does your project need a few extra sensors, say a temperature sensor and maybe an accelerometer to tell the object's orientation? Our Grove sensors easily plug into our boards and allow you to quickly prototype and provide your project with a proof of concept. Next we can help you go from a prototype to an engineering sample, working with you to customize your own version of the Wio Tracker. Finally, if you decide to take your project to market we can help you with manufacturing, and even selling your product through our website and channels!From making a fun GPS based project at home, to manufacturing and selling a GPS product to consumers, Seeed is here to help you succeed.Note:Please always plug a 3.7V Lipo battery in case USB power supply is not sufficient.Key FeaturesConnects with GPS + BeiDou + QZSS – Allowing for Higher Precision Location Around the Globe99 Channels Allows for Quicker Lock TimesGLP Mode - 40% Power Consumption for Normal ModeLOCUS Technology – Records Navigation Data AutomaticallyGPS, GSM, and BT Antennas IncludedGSM AT Commands: GSM 07.07, 07.05 and enhanced AT CommandBluetooth 3.0 with SPP Profile and HFP-AG Profile6 Grove Connectors (2x Digital, 2x Analog, 1x UART, 1 I2C)Arduino IDE CompatibilitySmall Form Factor (54.7mm x 48.2mm)Nano SIM and microSD 2-in-1 SocketHardware OverviewSpecificationsItemFunctionValueMicrocontrollerProcessorATSAMD21G18A-MUARM Cortex-M0+48MHZMemory256K Bytes Flash32K Bytes SRAMGSM/GPRSGSM850/900/1800/1900MHz:Class 4 (2W @850/900MHz)Class 1 (1W @1800/1900MHz)AT Command:GSM 07.07, 07.05 and enhanced AT CommandLow Power Consumption:1.2mA@DRX=5VGPRSGPRS Multi-slot Class 12:Down to 85.6kbpsUp to 85.6kbpsProtocol:TCP/UDP/FTP/HTTP/PPP/SSLSMSPeer to Peer MessageSMS broadcastText and PDU modeAudioEcho cancellationNoise eliminationBluetoothBluetooth 3.0:SPPHFP-AGGNSSSystemGPS L1 1575.42MHzBeiDou B1 1561.10MHzPrecision
