NEO-6M GPS Module
The NEO-6M GPS Module is a high-performance positioning device that receives signals from GPS satellites to determine precise geographic coordinates. It is widely used in navigation, vehicle tracking, and autonomous robotics.
How It Works?
The module communicates with a microcontroller (like Arduino) via UART serial communication. It sends NMEA sentences containing latitude, longitude, time, and satellite data. With libraries like TinyGPS++, you can easily extract and use this information.
Key Features
- High-sensitivity GPS receiver
- Supports UART communication (9600 bps default)
- Built-in EEPROM & backup battery
- Integrated ceramic antenna
- Compact design ideal for robotics projects
