    This document describes a project to track a college bus using an Arduino Uno, GPS receiver, and BoltIoT device. Key components include the BoltIoT unit to connect to WiFi and transmit sensor data, a GPS receiver to get location data, and an Arduino to read GPS data and send it to the BoltIoT unit. An Android app is created to get GPS data from the BoltIoT cloud and display the bus's current location, allowing students to see when the bus arrives at their stop.

    Bus Tracking Using BoltIoT

    by Monika mane

    Every day I have to call my friends to know about the status of my college bus.Where is it? When I know that the
    bus is near to my stop then I will go to my stop.

    After learning about the BoltIoT I got an idea that if my mobile app has the option to know where my bus, By that I
    started doing this project.

    Step 1: Components Used :

    1) Bolt Unit 4)3 Battery's(4v)

    2)Gps Receiver & Antenna 5) Jumper Wires.

    3)Arduino UNO 6)Switch

    Step 2: Bolt Unit

    Bolt unit is an electronic device which has an integrated ESP8266 Wifi chip.It helps to connect to the internet and
    we can control or get the info from sensors. It works on a 5v power supply.

    It can communicate to other microcontrollers using UART communication.

    Bus Tracking Using BoltIoT: Page 3


    Step 3: Arduino UNO and Battery Cnnection

    Here we connect 4v battery in Series and from the +ve wire we will connect to the switch and from the other end of
    the switch we will connect it to the "+ve" terminal of the Arduino UNO

    And from -ve sign of the battery we will directly connect it to the Arduino -ve terminal.

    Then we can supply the power using a switch.

    Step 4: GPS Receiver

    GPS receivers use a constellation of satellites and the 12 visible satellites is to transmit information back
    ground stations to compute position and time almost to earth over radio frequency (ranging from 1.1 to 1.5
    anywhere on earth. GHz). With this information and some math, a
    ground-based receiver or GPS module can calculate
    At any given time, there are at least 24 active its position and time.
    satellites orbiting over 12,000 miles above the earth.
    The positions of the satellites are constructed in a MORE ABOUT GPS.
    way that the sky above your location will always
    contain at most 12 satellites. The primary purpose of

    Step 5: Connecting GPS to Arduino UNO

    We will connect the Arduino and GPS using jumper 2)RX pin - 2 pin
    wires
    3)TX pin - 3 pin
    the receiver has 6 pins we will connect
    4)3.3v - 3.3v pin
    GPS receiver - Arduino UNO
    SIM28ML
    1)GND pin - GND

    Bus Tracking Using BoltIoT: Page 7


    Step 6: Programming Arduino UNO

    From the GPS receiver, we will get all the GPS info in NMEA sentence.We will receive up to 19 sentences from
    the receiver but we need only 2 sentences because they are sufficient for Tracking and knowing the position.

    They are $GPGGA, $GPRMC

    $GPGGA - Global Positioning System Fix Data

    $GPRMC - Recommended minimum specific GPS/Transit data

    TO know more about NMEA sentence CLICK HERE

    For that we will program arduino to take only this 2 sentances and the reciver will communicate with 9600 baud rate.

    Add the below zip file in the arduino ide software

    After that open INO file and uplode it to arduino using arduino ide software.

    1)5v pin - 5v
    YourapiKey ---- give your device API key, You can
    2)GND - GND pin get it from "Developer Console"

    3) TX pin - 0 pin deviceName = give your device name, You can get it
    from "BOLTIOT app" in Google store or app store
    4) RX pin - 1 pin
    keep baud rate to 9600.

    Step 8: Creating App for Tracking

    Go to MIT app inventor WEBSITE in the above image.

    Then sign in with your Google account. In BUTTON1 block give the URL
    "http://cloud.boltiot.com/remote/YourapiKey/serialRea
    Then "START NEW PROJECT " d?till=10&deviceName=BOLTxxxxxx

    give name and drag and drop the components in YourapiKey ---- give your device API key, You can
    screen 1 get it from "Developer Console"
    deviceName = give your device name, You can get it
    You can see the components in the image and we from "BOLTIOT app" in Google store or app store.
    can change their properties
    In SCREEN1 block give the URL "https://rl.se/gprmc"
    after go to "blocks" and connect the blocks as shown
