Pet GPS Collar Tracker Kit v3
Arduino Pet GPS Collar Tracker Kit v3 – Build a Mobile GPS Data Logger
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 equipping your pet’s collar with a custom GPS tracker that logs exact routes, speeds, and elevations onto a microSD card — no internet required. This kit turns an Arduino Uno and NEO-6M GPS module into a mobile data logger you can wear on a dog, carry on a hike, or mount on a bicycle. It’s the perfect project for understanding satellite navigation, data storage, and real-world embedded systems.
What You'll Build
You’ll assemble a compact, battery-powered GPS tracker that records latitude, longitude, speed, and altitude to an SD card. The 16×2 LCD displays live coordinates, satellite fix quality, and file write status. You can remove the SD card, plug it into a computer, and visualize the path on Google Earth. With a 4GB card, you can log weeks of movement data.
What You'll Learn
- Interfacing NEO-6M GPS with Arduino via UART serial communication
- Parsing NMEA sentences to extract location, speed, and altitude
- Writing sensor data to a microSD card using SPI and the SD library
- Displaying real-time telemetry on a 16×2 LCD over I2C

Who This Kit Is For
This intermediate kit is ideal for CBSE Class 11-12 students exploring GPS and data logging in computer science or physics practicals, B.Tech ECE/EEE students working on embedded systems mini-projects, and participants of Smart India Hackathon building animal tracking or fleet management solutions. ATL Tinkering Labs will find it a ready-made module for environmental monitoring and geotagging experiments.
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?
The AI companion guides you through every connection, and you can send a WhatsApp message for direct help from our engineers if something still feels off.
Can I attach this to a real pet collar?
Yes, the electronics are compact. You’ll need a 9V battery and a small protective case (not included) to make it wearable.
Does this require a SIM card or internet connection?
No. The NEO-6M receives satellite signals directly; all data is stored locally on the SD card without any mobile network.
How do I view the GPS track on a map?
The logger saves a CSV file. Import it into Google Earth or any GPS mapping tool to see the complete route with timestamps.
Pet — NEO-6M GPS module on Arduino logs location, speed and altitude to SD card — mobile tracking system.
