GPSjälgimisseade

GPSjälgimisseade, also known as a GPS tracker, is an electronic device that uses the Global Positioning System (GPS) to determine and transmit the location of an object or person. These devices typically consist of a GPS receiver, a microcontroller, a power source, and a communication module. The GPS receiver acquires signals from satellites to calculate its precise coordinates. The microcontroller processes this data, and the communication module, often a cellular or satellite modem, transmits the location information to a designated server or directly to a user's device.

GPSjälgimisseadmed are employed in a wide variety of applications. In logistics and fleet management, they are used to monitor the movement of vehicles, optimize routes, and ensure timely deliveries. For personal safety, they can be attached to children, elderly individuals, or even pets to provide peace of mind and aid in recovery if they become lost. In the realm of asset tracking, these devices help secure valuable equipment, vehicles, and cargo against theft. Security companies also utilize GPS trackers for surveillance and recovery operations. The data collected by these devices can be accessed through dedicated software platforms or mobile applications, often providing real-time location updates, historical travel data, and geofencing alerts. The battery life of a GPSjälgimisseade can vary significantly depending on its size, power consumption, and the frequency of location transmissions.
