Wio Tracker (Wireless Input Output) is an open-source gateway that enables faster IoT GPS solutions. It is Arduino and Grove-compatible development board that helps you track nearly any moving thing on the planet and then upload that data wirelessly. The Wio LTE is the LTE version of Wio Tracker, so now we’ve got 2 versions of Wio Tracker and the LTE (4G) version will make some differences.

If your project is using the 2G version, it would be very easy to update to the LTE version because we have prepared a transplantable and expansible AT command library. The Arduino and Grove compatibility allows for quicker development through numerous libraries and a supportive community. Simplifying the prototyping and development phase is our goal. If you are going to build projects like a bicycle sharing service, tracking pets or livestock, locating a vehicle, or even keeping track of a child, the Wio LTE is the best solution.

Highlighted Features

• There are three main updates comparing the Wio LTE to the 2G version:
• The Wio LTE supports a total 4 different GNSS – GPS, Beidou, GLONASS, and Galileo, the QZSS is also supported as a bonus
• With more GNSS support, the positioning will be more accurate
• The Wio LTE‘s MCU is upgraded to STM32F405RG, which is based on Cortex-M4, making the Wio LTE 5 times faster than the 2G version. What’s more, the flash and RAM have also been raised to 1Mbytes and 192+4k bytes
• The GPS library which will be available with the board is not just limited to Arduino – it can function just as well if you chose to develop in C/C++
• With the onboard 6 Grove connections, developers can create any combination of our 180+ sensors and actuators to build projects and solve any problem
• The Wio LTE is well suited for outdoor projects where the device can connect to GPS satellites and provide a real-time location of the item it is attached to
• The LTE provides a wide bandwidth which allows much faster interaction between the user and the device
