Fritzing diagram: gps-GP-20U7.fzz
Run this example from the command line with:
node eg/gps-GP-20U7.js
const { Board, GPS } = require("johnny-five");
const board = new Board();
board.on("ready", () => {
const gps = new GPS({
pins: {
rx: 11,
tx: 10,
}
});
// If latitude, longitude data log it.
// This will output zero until a valid
// GPS position is detected.
gps.on("data", position => {
const {altitude, latitude, longitude} = position;
console.log("GPS Position:");
console.log(" altitude : ", altitude);
console.log(" latitude : ", latitude);
console.log(" longitude : ", longitude);
console.log("--------------------------------------");
});
});
