Asset Location Tracker Kit
Build a Long-Range LoRa Asset Tracking System with Dual Arduino Nanos
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Transform two Arduino Nanos into a self-contained asset tracking network that reports real-time location every 30 seconds over LoRa. Whether you’re prototyping a fleet monitor for your B.Tech capstone, building a theft-recovery module for a Smart India Hackathon entry, or deploying a surveillance tool on a remote site, this kit delivers a production-grade wireless link straight out of the box.
What You'll Build
A battery-powered remote tracker that reads location from a NEO-6M GPS module and beams it kilometres away using an RA-02 LoRa chip, plus a gateway receiver that scrolls live coordinates on a crisp OLED display. The entire chain is portable, rechargeable, and ready for real outdoor testing—no cloud, no Wi‑Fi, just pure RF communication.
What You'll Learn
- Configure LoRa SX1278 modules for point-to-point 433 MHz communication
- Interface the NEO-6M GPS with Arduino Nano to parse real-time NMEA sentences
- Design a solar‑free mobile tracker with LiPo battery and TP4056 charging circuit
- Build a standalone gateway receiver that displays location data on an OLED

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately
| Factor | Sourcing Separately | Compoden Kit |
|---|---|---|
| Compatibility checks | You verify every part | Pre-tested as a system |
| Build support | Forums and scattered tutorials | AI companion trained on this exact project |
| Time to first working build | Days of debugging | Hours, with step-by-step guidance |
| Shipping coordination | Multiple sellers, multiple delays | One shipment from Bengaluru in 3-5 days |
Who This Kit Is For
Advanced students and makers working on real surveillance applications. B.Tech ECE/EEE undergraduates will find this ideal for a capstone project or a LoRa‑based IoT thesis. Smart India Hackathon teams can integrate the tracker into a larger security prototype, and ATL Tinkering Lab mentors will appreciate the end‑to‑end soldering and debugging experience. If you’ve already worked with Arduino IDE and are ready for RF design, this is your next step.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR inside the box to start a conversation with the AI companion trained on this exact tracker. It walks you through each line of code and every connection. If you need a human, our WhatsApp support team responds within hours.
Can I extend the range beyond typical LoRa coverage?
Yes. With a directional antenna and correct spreading factor settings, the SX1278 pair can cover several kilometres in open air. The AI companion will guide you through optimal parameter tuning.
Is this kit durable enough for outdoor Indian conditions?
The electronics handle normal outdoor temperature ranges, but we recommend a 3D‑printed or IP65 enclosure for rain and dust protection during prolonged deployment.
Can I forward the gateway data to a cloud dashboard?
Absolutely. The gateway Arduino can also connect to an ESP8266 or a serial‑to‑USB bridge, and the AI companion includes sample code to push coordinates to Blynk, ThingSpeak, or a custom MQTT broker.
Asset — Arduino Nano + RA-02 LoRa transmits GPS coordinates every 30 seconds from asset to gateway receiver.
