Hi
I have a arduino nano and i'm making a gps speedometer for my bike and i need help wiring and programming the 1575R-A gps module to the nano. My speedometer is old school where it uses a needle to show your speed and the needle is driven by a servo. Speedometer will be in MPH and the scale is 0 to 40 mph. Now i'm completely new to this and anythings helps. Thanks
for €10/h i can help you.
Sorry noelvissers, they haven't posted in Gigs & Collaborations....
You have essentially two parts. First, connect the gps up to the Arduino and figure out how to get the speed. The TinyGPS+ library will do that and I suspect that NeoGPS will do too. Then connect up the servo so it will point to the correct position on the scale when you enter a value. Finally join the two together.
You can configure my NeoGPS library to parse only the speed. This saves lots of RAM, program space and execution time. Here are several NeoGPS speedometer projects:
GPS Nixie Speedometer
GPS Speedometer, problems when still
GPS 7 Segment Speedometer Working But With Issues
[GPS Speedometer] Slow display updates on Mode 3 Fix.
Gps speedometer
Trinket Pro speedometer (most recent version of a long-running thread)
NeoGPS is available from the Arduino IDE Library Manager, under the menu Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Libraries. Even if you don't use it, there is lots of information on the Installation and Troubleshooting pages.
If you have further questions, be sure to post the code you are trying (in code tags, as described in How to use this forum).
Cheers,
