GPS GSM Development Tools

The GPS/GSM Development kit provides a convenient platform for learning of two major technologies-GPS and GSM. It combines the essential hardware for these two technologies together with essential software for accessing and controlling them. In addition, the kit supports realworld interface through ADC and digital I/O, which facilitates development of many meaningful applications.

With the GPS/GSM Development Kit, it is possible to simulate applications in real time. The kit essentially consists of two boards. This arrangement enables one board to serve as the receiving device and the other board as the transmitting device. For example, if an application is developed to track vehicles, then board1 could be connected to the computer through RS232 interface and board2 can be installed in the vehicle. Should the application that is being developed support monitoring of The heart of the kit is the GPS receiver interconnected to a GSM modem controlled by a Microprocessor. The GPS technology provides positional information while the GSM technology serves as the communication link, the GPS/GSM Development Kit enables design, development testing and simulation of a whole new range of applications where positional information is a key input, thus opening the flood gates of a whole new range of business opportunities.
