We emulate the TDG series remote controls using the GSM Shield. It’s not been long since we presented our GSM shield for GSM/GPRS modules SIMCom, QUECTEL, FIBOCOM etc. that was born to be incorporated in Arduino-based projects involving cellular connectivity; now it’s time to move on to the first practical application, which in this case…
One of the strongest trend we have seen this year at CES2015 is, as you can imagine easily, the IoT (Internet of Things) development. Consequently, the most important component needed is the “connection and communication” module that enables the remote interaction between the device and “the community” via internet. Here we will sum up the…
A few days ago we showed you how to use the Raspberry GSM shield using the arduPi library created by Libelium and available under the GNU General Public License that you can download from Cooking Hacks. Now we’ll see a further functioning mode, one that allows you to interact directly with the serial port using…
Today we present an expansion shield for Raspberry Pi to control the very effective GSM/GPRS SIM900 and SIM908 (with GPS) modules: in this way it is possible to extend the functionality of Raspberry Pi for mobile applications (eg: remote control) and, by employing the SIM908 module, even the GPS functionality. Even if we will describe…
Once again we have prepared some examples related to the GSM/GPRS & GPS shield. In previous posts we have seen how to handle SMS, make calls and use the GPRS connection to send email or download data from Internet pages. The shield has been developed to accommodate both forms of SIMComs: SIM900 and SIM908: the…
After having shown several examples regarding the use the GSM/GPRS & GPS shield with calls and text messages we are now going to present some applications that involve GPRS data. Thanks to the inet.h class the shield can indeed connect to the internet and its various applications. We ‘ll see how to use the Arduino as…
This post is one in a series showing you the main features of the GSM /GPRS/GPS shield and of its related library. The examples are great to have inspiration and reuse the material to create your own solutions. We already talked about how to use the shield to make calls, send DTMF tones and…
A few months ago, we presented a powerful shield that can enable devices from the Arduino family (Uno and Mega) to interface with the SIMCOM modules SIM900 and SIM908. Such modules provide integration with the world of GSM, GPRS and GPS and all is achieved through very simple Arduino commands thanks to the open-source dedicated…
Shield for Arduino designed and based on the module GSM/GPRS SIM900 or the GSM/GPRS & GPS module SIM908, to make calls, voice and data connections via GPRS. HARDWARE INNOVATIONS This new version (old Arduino GSM shield) has several new hardware features, that allow maximum customization and provide many configurations. We begin with the…
This is a very low cost and simple Arduino GSM and GPRS shield. We use the module SIMCom SIM900. It’s the cheaper module now avalaible in the market. The module is not simple to mount by an hobbyst, so we use the Breakboard TDGGSM_900 that we presented in this post. You…
