Build an Automatic Antenna Tracker with Arduino Nano & NRF24 — Keep Your Signal Locked on a Moving Target

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Imagine aiming a high‑gain antenna at a drone, balloon, or rover without ever touching the controls. This kit makes that possible by building a two-part system: a GPS‑equipped target unit that broadcasts its precise coordinates over NRF24L01, and a base station that instantly points a pan‑tilt servo assembly straight at it. Perfect for long‑range video links, telemetry reception, or your next Smart India Hackathon prototype.

What You'll Build

A fully functional antenna tracker with two Arduino Nano brains. The target device reads latitude and longitude from a NEO‑6M GPS module and sends them wirelessly. The base station receives the data, calculates the bearing and elevation angles, and drives two SG90 servos mounted on a pan‑tilt bracket to track the target continuously. An OLED display shows live heading and distance readouts, so you can verify the system’s accuracy in real time.

What You'll Learn

• Configure and send data packets over NRF24L01 wireless modules with reliable error handling
• Parse NMEA sentences from a NEO‑6M GPS to extract real‑time latitude, longitude, and altitude
• Program servo motors for smooth pan‑tilt motion and understand pulse‑width modulation (PWM) techniques
• Integrate a 0.96‑inch OLED display for telemetry feedback and system debugging

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

Students working on CBSE Class 12 physics practicals or B.Tech ECE minor projects will find a ready‑made wireless communication demo. ATL Tinkering Labs can use it for advanced robotics workshops, and Smart India Hackathon teams tackling agriculture or surveillance themes can build a rugged, real‑world tracking system. Hobbyists aiming to learn NRF24L01 networking and servo kinematics will appreciate the structured learning path.
