Learn to implement dual-core GPS data processing on the Raspberry Pi Pico W by dedicating one core to continuously reading NMEA sentences from the Adafruit Ultimate GPS while using the other core for parsing operations. Master the configuration techniques needed to prevent UART buffer overflow that can lead to corrupt and stale location data. Explore the practical implementation of multi-core programming for GPS applications, understanding how to efficiently manage data flow between cores to ensure reliable GPS tracking functionality. Gain hands-on experience with NMEA sentence parsing algorithms and buffer management strategies essential for building robust GPS tracking systems using the Pico W's dual-core architecture.
