Signal is picked up by ground-based receivers and published on Open\nGlider Network, so that aircraft position can be found on  various aircraft\ntracking systems, like http://glidertracker.de/ or\nhttps://www.flightradar24.com/. It is also received by other OGN tracker\ndevices in the vicinity and can be used to improve pilot' situation awareness.\nSee http://wiki.glidernet.org/ for more information.\n\nKed Tracker is designed using [KiCad](http://kicad.org/) electronic schematic and PCB design software.\n\n## Features\n\n* Can be powered from onboard 12V power supply (or any 9-24V power\n  supply for that matter).\n\n* Standard NMEA output.\n\n* Uses FLARM NMEA sentences to report detected nearby aircrafts for\n  interoperability with existing hardware and software.\n\n* Communication via standard IGC RJ45 socket.\n  Allows to re-use existing equipment like FLARM viewers or cables.\n\n* Communication via USB interface. Device is visible as virtual COM port\n  when connected to a computer. Requires no special cables other then standerd\n  micro-USB cable. Device can also be powered by 5V from USB interface.\n\n* Communication via Bluetooth. For hassle-free wireless connection with\n  phone or tablet.\n\n* Barometric sensor onboard for more precise altitude measurement.\n\n* Slot for SD-card. Currently for logging device activity. Firmware for IGC\n  flight logger is pending.\n\n* Beeper to provide sound feedback for important events.\n\n## Schematics\n\nCurrent schematics can be also downloaded in\n[PDF format](hardware/render/kedtracker.pdf?raw=true).\n\n![Schematic Page 1](/hardware/render/kedtracker-0.png?raw=true \"Schematic Page 1\")\n![Schematic Page 2](/hardware/render/kedtracker-1.png?raw=true \"Schematic Page 2\")\n\n## Setting Up Development Environment\n\nYou will need to install additional packages for development. Packages for\nubuntu are specified here; other operating systems might have similar\nrequirements.\n\n### Building Firmware and Flashing MCU\n\n```\nsudo apt install gcc-arm-none-eabi openocd picocom\nsudo add-user `whoami` plugdev\nsudo add-user `whoami` dialout\n```\n\n### Developing Hardware\n\n```\nsudo apt install kicad\n```\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fkedder%2Fkedtracker","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fkedder%2Fkedtracker","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fkedder%2Fkedtracker/lists"}
