Stamp - GPS as speedo...

superoo

Hello stampers,
I'm new to the forum,
Does anybody have any links to·using a stamp to link with GPS and use the data as a speedo ?
I will need a GPS which can do the miles / k's travelled, and can supply the data to the stamp. The code shouldnt be a problem, its just finding the right GPS engine that is hard for me where we are located. If anyone has a brand of GPS engine they can recommend,it would be appreciated.


Cheers, Chris,

I don't think a GPS will work well underwater or in underwear - Google speedo for more info

I built a supplementary digital dash using a GPS -- here's a link to the article:

I use the Rikaline GPS-6010, available from www.stargps.ca·for Stamp-GPS projects.

It can send the $GPRMC sentence (as well as others) --·constituents of which are "course over ground" (0-360) and "speed over ground" (knots).

It has NMEA (4800, 8N1, RS-232) output.
