I love DIY projects, though it always seems as though I never have enough time to sit down and do them. When you finish this next project you will have your own GSM GPS tracking device. I’m pretty sure that most people out there haven’t built one of those before.

This project isn’t for the novice as it requires a good amount of skill to complete. In the end you’ll have a device that will receive SMS messages that will return a set of GPS positions.

The project isn’t cheap either, it will set you back around $280. The most expensive part is the GM862-PS module that will run you $183. If you just happen to have one of those lying around, then it’ll be a fairly cheap project for you.

    Interesting, I just checked it and it seems to be working fine. Navigadget must have been having some troubles, but all seems to be well.
