Getting a rig for some servers is easy. Figuring out a range of hardware to test and support for a range of different types of possible users with different budgets, from some tiny hobby user at home to the entire global economy... have very different needs and hardware budgets. :)
- denimnerd 9y agoAnything that has PPS and is compatible with GPSD will work..
- dfc 9y agoThe entire global economy? Maybe you should narrow your market focus a little. NTPD and or GPSD support anything with NMEA and PPS. You should be able to satisfy a large range of users with any ublox 6, 7 or 8T.
- Veratyr 9y agoYep, you can buy a Neo-6M with breakout board and antenna for $5 and hook it up to a Raspberry Pi without much trouble. Software can be fiddly but I found this guide to be helpful: http://www.satsignal.eu/ntp/Raspberry-Pi-NTP.html http://www.satsignal.eu/ntp/Raspberry-Pi-NTP.html Hell, you can hook it up to a NodeMCU as well: https://blog.squix.org/2016/05/esp8266-peripherals-ublox-gps-module.html https://blog.squix.org/2016/05/esp8266-peripherals-ublox-gps... Bam, $10 wifi enabled GPS.
