Turn Every Walk or Ride into a Visual Journey – GPS Track Visualiser Kit with Arduino Uno

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 a small gadget that rides in your pocket or backpack and draws the exact path you travelled on a tiny screen — no maps, just your unique trail of dots. This kit lets young builders create that device, a GPS track visualiser that auto‑scales its display to fit any route, whether you walk a park loop or ride a bicycle to school. It’s a data‑visualisation project that feels like magic the first time you see your real movement turn into a glowing dot trail on a TFT display.

What You'll Build

You will assemble a handheld GPS receiver that continuously reads your location from satellites, processes latitude and longitude, and plots your journey as a connected dot path on a 1.8‑inch colour TFT screen. The route auto‑scales as you travel — a short walk fills the screen, a long drive shrinks to fit perfectly. The final build is a battery‑powered tracker you can take anywhere outdoors, turning a simple Arduino Uno and GPS module into a personal route mapper.

What You'll Learn

• Decode NMEA sentences from a GPS module to extract real‑time latitude and longitude
• Convert geographic coordinates into pixel positions on a TFT display
• Implement an auto‑scaling algorithm that adjusts the plotted path to always fit the screen
• Assemble a complete electronic circuit on a breadboard without any soldering

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

This beginner‑friendly kit is designed for school students (age 10 and above) who want a real‑world electronics project for a science exhibition or ATL Tinkering Lab. CBSE Class 11‑12 students exploring data visualisation will find it a perfect fit for practical records, while B.Tech first‑year students from IIT, NIT, VIT, or BITS can use it as a quick hackathon prototype. It’s also an engaging weekend build for any young maker curious about GPS and display technology.

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.
