I must be missing something. I have looked on iTunes store and on the apple apps store and I cannot find the collisionaware app anywhere.
Can someone please give me a hint as to where to go to find it as I would like to use the iPad GPS rather than the gps dongle in the raspberry pi.
Many thanks

Hi Peter,
My iOS developer license expired in January, and hence Apple remove your apps from the store.
Using a GPS dongle is the preferred method, but there is an alternative if you wish to share your iPAD GPS
There is a utility called 'NMEA GPS' on the iTunes store
https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/nmea-gps/id590868529?mt=8
The settings are as follows
NMEA WIFI SERVER (Enable)
Server Protocol : UDP no broadcast
Server Port: 2001
Target Ip for UDP: 192.168.1.1
If there are any iOS developers who want to take CollisionAware and put it back on the iTunes store, I am quite happy to donate the source.
Thx

Thank you. I was beginning to doubt my ability to navigate around the Apple systems. I was only attracted to using the iPad GPS as I thought it would reduced the power requirements by not having a GPS dongle on the Pi.
However as the system has been running for 6 hours on a battery pack this may not be an issue. I will have a go with the NMEA system just to see how it works.

GPS NMEA doesn´t work with UDP. It does´ receive any GPS data. With TCP/IP it works, but SkyDemon doesn´t connect

Hi
Have you used the exact settings I describe below ?
Although my recommendation is still for a usb/gps
Thx

I talked a friend of mine with an iPad through setting up NMEA GPS the other night, given the settings in the instructions. It worked for him using UDP.
