Overview
The SenseCAP Card Tracker T1000-E is a high-performance tracker designed for Meshtastic, as small as a credit card, effortlessly fitting in your pocket or attaching to your assets. It embeds Semtech's LR1110 (Supports 863-928 MHz range), Nordic's nRF52840, and Mediatek's AG3335 GPS module, providing Meshtastic users with a high-precision, low-power positioning and communication solution.
Meshtastic is an open-source communication project designed to create a mesh network-based communication system using low-power, long-range radio like LoRa.
If you are in an environment without mobile signal or internet connection, such as during hiking, camping, emergency rescue, or other outdoor activities, as long as you and your companions each have a T1000-E and are paired with your phones, you can communicate and locate each other using the Meshtastic app.
The T1000-E is the same size as a card and is only 6.5 mm thick, making it very portable.
Charging and Connectivity
The T1000-E comes with a 4-pin charging cable that supports:
- Charging
- Device Firmware Upgrade
- Log Viewing
Multi-protocol support: Featuring nRF52840 and LR1110, it supports LoRa (global ISM bands in the 863-928 MHz range). After purchasing the T1000-E, you can freely choose your region in the Meshtastic app. It also supports Bluetooth 5.0, Thread, and Zigbee, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices and networks.
Powerful Positioning Capabilities: Integrated with the Mediatek's AG3335 GPS chip, it provides high-precision positioning services.
Expandable Interfaces: Designed with four pogo pins, it supports USB interface for DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade), serial logging, and API interface, simplifying device management and debugging.
Open Source Support: Compatible with the Meshtastic open-source mesh networking protocol, suitable for long-range and low-power communication needs.
If you've got a IP65 rating Meshtastic device with GPS, temperature, lightness and motion (3-Axis Accelerometer) sensors, numerous potential applications await. Use the Meshtastic APP to communicate with low-power, long-range LoRa® devices via your phone. Connect with nearby nodes, participate in group chats, and share geographic locations—all in areas without cellular coverage.
Recommended Use Cases:
Asset Tracking: Track the movement and location of your assets and monitor environmental and moving conditions in real-time where the asset is located for better management.
Outdoor Adventure: Use this ready to deploy Meshtastic device for off-grid communication with your hiking or camping group. The GPS can help track locations, while temperature and motion sensors can provide real-time environmental and movement data to ensure safety.
Environmental Monitoring: Collect and transmit environmental data. Deploy the device in remote areas to monitor and log temperature and lightness over time, contributing to local weather data collection. Use the device to track and monitor environmental conditions in wildlife habitats, aiding in research and conservation efforts.
