Technology company Hunan Global Messenger Technology has launched a wildlife tracker designed for use by scientific research organisations and national parks around the world. Weighing just 2.2 g, the ultra-lightweight ‘HQBG1202’ can be attached to fauna weighing less than 100 g, making it suitable, for example, for tracking smaller bird species’ without burdening them. The device allows for precise location tracking through the Nordic nRF9160 SiP’s combination of cellular network location data and GNSS trilateration.
The HQBG1202 collects a wide range of multi-dimensional data including latitude, longitude, speed, acceleration, altitude, Horizontal Dilution of Precision (HDOP), Vertical Dilution of Precision (VDOP), activity level, body temperature and Overall Dynamic Body Acceleration (ODBA). The HQBG1202 can collect 1440 bits of data, and 12,000 sets of acceleration data each day, using the nRF9160 SiP’s powerful 64 MHz Arm® Cortex-M33 processor with generous 1 MB Flash and 256 KB RAM.
“We have supplied wildlife satellite tracking equipment, technology, and data support to over 300 scientific research teams and management units worldwide,” said Chen Zhengrong, the technical director at Global Messenger. “Our efforts have successfully tracked and monitored more than 20,000 individual animals, collecting over 80 million data points.”
Using the nRF9160 SiP’s multimode LTE-M/NB-IoT modem with integrated RF Front End (RFFE), this device transmits the collected data to the Cloud, where it can then be accessed by scientific organisations through the corresponding website, relevant software (for PC), or smartphone app.
