Analysis and Implementation of a Satellite Tracking System applied to pets using free software with GPS and GSM technology
Main Article Content
Abstract
The project aims to implement a satellite tracking system for pets, using GSM and GPS technology, free software and a VPS server. An analysis will be carried out to select the best GPS device. In addition, a mobile application will be developed that will allow users to see the geographic location of their pet and place virtual fences to prevent its loss. The application will also include additional options, such as the ability to configure the intensity of satellite tracking, call the device, and access a video tutorial and a menu of pet tips. The VPS server will host and route the satellite tracking software, and the mobile application will allow users to view their pet's location in real time and receive alerts if the pet leaves the geofence boundary. In summary, the project's main goal is to prevent pet loss and provide a useful tool to keep pets healthy and happy.
