"Good luck with your project. Phones can certainly handle it, but the problem lies with the providers - many block anything other than HTTP (especially WAP APNs). I'm uncertain whether this limitation exists on the "Internet" APNs that carriers are…"
"I'll be watching your efforts intently - I am very interested in hooking stock cellphones up to MCU boards. I use bluetooth to connect between the phone and the board, then GPRS to connect to the remote server. One obstacle I ran into was that…"
"I wish. I bought a c168i off ebay but I found it didn't support AT command GPRS data over serial, and SMS is too expensive, too small, and too slow. In any case, I wanted to develop a relatively phone-agnostic solution so this was the only way. I…"
"The cellular link will eventually be able to issue commands but for now it is just telemetry. I'd appreciate suggestions on a command set for the base station. See my previous blog post for more details on the Google Earth live FPV simulator I…"
The emulator running some demo data, and showing the result.The Bluetooth/GPRS application I've been working on is now functional enough that it might be of use to someone. Feedback and suggestions are appreciated. Currently, the application has…
This post is about a live (simulated) FPV system using Google Earth, relaying data over a cellular GPRS/3G network. A while ago I saw a commercial OSD setup that used Google Earth to simulate an FPV display. Needless to say, I was immediately…
"Sounds like a neat project, though I think your goals may be set a tad high. I'd love to collaborate on UAV stuff, I'm in the general area. I'm just starting with UAVs but I have robotics experience.
