Hello,
I was looking at the indoor navigating system starter set w/ case & IMU (433 MHz). I am currently working on a project to map out a temperature measurements of an object. In that case, a temperature sensor is needed to measure temperature, as well as a position on that object is also needed. Now I know that this navigation system maps out the position, is there a way to match the position with the temperature measured at teach point on that object?
Thank you for your time
Hello @Mkifar2 and welcome to the forum
Could you be a little more specific about the object you are referring to? I’m guessing it has to be a pretty big object if you are planning on using an IPS system. Also, could you give more details about what device are you going to use to move from point to point? And how precise the temperature measurement has to be?
Hello,
Yes the object is about 15ft by 15ft. Using a drone to move from point to point. And the temperature measurements has to be within +/- 8 cm.
Hi again,
I was checking the documentation on the Marvelmind Indoor Positioning System and I found these:
Marvelmind libraries provide an example of building the system for receiving coordinates from Marvelmind mobile beacons via virtual serial port by user’s software running on supported operating systems:
So you can get the positional data and pair it with the extra data that you would have to measure using a temperature sensor, you can find some here:

You will also need a microcontroller to either store the temperature data with some sort of time stamp or get the data and send it (through Bluetooth/Wifi/Radio) to the same device where you are receiving the positional data.
Thank you very much for your help.
