ESP32 GPS Location Logger Kit with ESP32 + LED
ESP32 GPS Location Logger Kit — Turn Real-Time Coordinates into a Live Tracking Dashboard
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
What if your child could carry a small device outdoors and watch its path appear live on a map, moments later? This kit teaches exactly that. Using the ESP32 and NEO-6M GPS module, the builder wires up a location logger that broadcasts coordinates over WiFi to a Google Maps web page. The 0.96-inch OLED adds a handheld readout of latitude, longitude, and fix status, making outdoor experiments immediately visual.
What You'll Build
By the end of construction, you’ll hold a working GPS tracker that captures real-time location data, shows it on a tiny display, and streams it to any browser on the same network. Walk around your campus, park, or neighbourhood and watch your path update automatically on a Google Maps embed. The entire project feels like a mini vehicle tracking system—just in a breadboard-friendly form factor.
What You'll Learn
- Parse NMEA sentences from a NEO-6M GPS module to extract latitude and longitude
- Set up an ESP32 as a WiFi access point and web server
- Embed a live Google Maps view into an HTML page served by the microcontroller
- Display real-time GPS data on an OLED screen using I2C communication

Who This Kit Is For
This kit is perfect for CBSE Class 11–12 students exploring IoT concepts, B.Tech ECE/EEE first-years needing a hands-on project for mini-projects, and ATL Tinkering Lab participants looking for a location-aware build. It also suits Smart India Hackathon teams prototyping asset tracking ideas quickly on a budget, and young makers aged 10+ who have completed basic Arduino or ESP32 starter kits.
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 code on the kit box to chat with an AI trained on every step of this exact GPS logger. It can explain wiring, code snippets, and troubleshooting in real time. If you need a human, reach out via WhatsApp and we’ll jump in within a few hours.
Does this kit work without an internet connection?
The ESP32 creates its own WiFi hotspot, so no external internet is needed to view the map on a phone or laptop nearby. The GPS module works independently outdoors.
Can I log the location data to a SD card or cloud?
The default build streams live coordinates to a browser. To log data, you can modify the code to write to an SD card or upload to a free IoT platform—our AI companion can guide you through both variations after you complete the core project.
Is soldering required?
No soldering at all. Everything connects via the breadboard and jumper wires. The kit is entirely plug-and-play for a solderless build.
NEO-6M GPS feeds coordinates to ESP32. Posts live location to Google Maps embed via WiFi on browser.
