GPS and Wifi shileld on Arduino UNO/Freeduino

[adfan]

My project requires both GPS and Wifi shield on Arduino UNO/Freeduino

Can both be stacked at same time on Arduino UNO/Freeduino.

GPS data can be sent over wifi to internet ?

What components I need to purchase?

I already have Arduino Freeduino

Just buy a CC3000 shield and a GPS shield. You will also need to use stacking headers on the CC3000 WiFi instead of the regular pin headers which come with the shields, so that you can stack the GPS on top of it.

Thanks for your reply.The board we have is freeduino. Can you confirm if all these components work with that also.what part is needed for providing power supply and on/off switch for this freeduino board.

We don't sell of support the Freeduino. I know nothing about it. If it is equivalent to an Arduino Uno, then the shields should work.
We recommend using a 9V 1A supply with most Arduinos

HI
I see your website sell Arduino UNO, is there any soldering required, if buy this? Can I stack GPS and wifi shiles without any soldering using header pins ? Does Arduino UNO come with powr supply/battery capability ?

What accessories/parts need to use on the Arduino UNO my project requires when I press a switch/button it should send GPS coordinates over wifi to internet? Any other accessories I need to buy other than Arduino UNO, GPS and Wifi shield ?

Please advise.

thanks

You will need to solder header pins onto the GPS and WiFi shields. No soldering of the Uno is required.

In addition to the Uno and the shields, you will need a 9V 1A power adapter or a 6xAA battery pack.

You will also need a set of Stacking Headers. These would be installed on the WiFi shield, so that you can stack the GPS on top of it.

Hi Thanks for getting back.

Few questions :

1. What part I need to install on Arduino UNO like Switch/button when I press it send coordinates using GPS over wifi to internet?
2. Is GPS and wifi available on wearable electronics like Gemma or Flora ?
3. Is there an enclosure available for Arduino UNO with GPS and WiFI to give a finished product look ?

thanks

We have lots of different kinds of buttons in the store. You can use any of them.

This tutorial explains how to program buttons on the Arduino:

We have a wearable version of the GPS module. For WiFi, you can use our CC3000 breakout

I think this box is a little too small for stacking 3 boards, but I don't know for sure.

We also have a larger one:

We also have the Otterbox:

thanks for the response, this is very helpful

I'm planning to buy wearable electronics, is there a button for Gemma to be used with GPS and Wifi modules ?

thanks

The Gemma is not powerful enough to run GPS and WiFi. You'll have to use a FLORA.
We don't have any buttons specifically designed for wearables.

I believe this one has been mentioned in some wearable projects:

Good find! I hadn't seen that one before

thanks, this is good information

Hi I bought Arduino UNO and CC3000 from you website, now I got it and trying to run example program "connectwithWEP"
Program compiles and uploads with message Binary sketch size: 6,816 bytes (of a 32,256 byte maximum)
and says Done Uploading.

No other output where should I see the println output.
