Using External GPS Device w/ Android via Bluetooth
- by jeremynealbrown
Hello,
I am writing an Android 2.0 application that is going to be used in a
somewhat remote location. There will be no internet connection
available and it will be used outside of the U.S. I am considering the
option of using an external Nokia or similar GPS device as a
receiver/transmitter and connecting to it for use in my application
via the bluetooth API.
I am looking for opinions on whether or not this is even possible, if
anyone has attempted it or if someone has a suggestion for
some other external device or approach that would be more fitting.
