Abstract

A complete IoT solution for outdoor traceability of mobile things is presented. ?e system is composed of a mobile embedded system with a GPS/GPRS module (also referred in the article as tracking device) and cloud services. ?is embedded device has been designed using design for manufacturing, assembly and testing, with low power consumption and low cost in the scope. ?e cloud service, called Red Panda, is a publishedWeb page developed by the authors in order to allow users easy remote access, and see the map with the data acquired from the tracking device. MQTT (Message ?eue Telemetry Transport) is used to communicate the embedded device and the cloud service. First test show promising results of the complete solution. A position accuracy of 10- 20 meters is obtained using raw data of the GPS module without post processing.
