# GPS Tracking System
## Overview
A robust GPS tracking system designed for embedded applications, featuring real-time location tracking, building proximity detection, and user interface capabilities. This system is built with a layered architecture following embedded systems best practices.
## Features
- Real-time GPS location tracking
- Building proximity detection and identification
- LCD display interface for user interaction
- Buzzer notifications for proximity alerts
- UART communication for GPS module interface
- GPIO control for peripheral management
- System timer management
## Project Architecture
The project follows a layered architecture pattern:
### Application Layer (App)
- Main application logic
- Building location management
- System initialization and control
- User interface handling
### Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL)
- **GPS Module**: GPS data acquisition and parsing
- **LCD**: Display interface for user information
- **Buzzer**: Audio feedback system
- **PORTF**: Port configuration and management
### Microcontroller Abstraction Layer (MCAL)
- **UART**: Serial communication interface
- **SPI**: Serial Peripheral Interface
- **GPIO**: General Purpose Input/Output control
- **SysticTimer**: System timing management
## Hardware Requirements
- Microcontroller (MCU)
- GPS Module
- LCD Display
- Buzzer
- Required power supply
- Supporting components (resistors, capacitors, etc.)
## Software Requirements
- Embedded C compiler
- IDE supporting embedded development
- GPS parsing libraries
- UART communication libraries
