BlazeTrak - ESP32 with GPS, IMU, Altitude Sensor, USB and Data Logging

[sukeshak]

Just curious... what happened to this project?
No updates... I am interested to get some samples for testing. I don't need GSM/3G

Hello,

What is the status of the blazetrak? Are there any intentions to make the board commercially available and in what timeframe. I'm interest in it as it would suite my project very well.

Many thanks in advance

Filip

I would back this project and assist in hardware design as well. Here is my use case: https://www.hackster.io/whatnick/xadow- ... imu-f552e0 .

I will manufacture these for all Nikon and compatible cameras for live AHRS use.

Hi,

I'm sorry for blatantly hijacking this post, but I recently came across this in my own research. I feel less bad since BlazeTrak seems to be inactive since ~ 2018.

I developed a similar device for my own use case.

- small form factor of 43 mm x 32 mm
- high quality ublox GNSS receiver with integrated antenna
- NFC
- 3 axis accelerometer for power saving features
- SD card
- onboard single cell Li-ion charging

The crowdfunding will launch this year on crowdsupply:

Hi Kevin,

nice project!
I'm also interested to know if it has a battery charging circuit and what GPIOs are exposed, if you would like to add an epaper display or similar, to have a readable screen.

Would you mind sharing the circuit (KiCad or just a PDF) so we can take a more extensive look?

I have a project with similar hardware guts : GPS+IMU+Data logging, but for a different application - gps altimeter/variometer for gliding .

Ublox gps, MPU9250 IMU, MS5611/BMP388 barometric pressure sensor, logs high speed sensor data or GPS track data to SPI flash, can transmit NMEA sentences via bluetooth, configuration / data log downloads via Wifi.
