Learn to build an advanced GPS tracking system using dual-core processing on the Raspberry Pi Pico W with an integrated OLED display. Master the implementation of multi-core programming by dedicating one core to continuously reading NMEA sentences from the Adafruit Ultimate GPS module while using the second core for data parsing. Configure proper UART buffer management to prevent overflow issues that can cause corrupt or stale location data. Integrate an SSD1306 OLED display to show real-time GPS location information, creating a complete standalone GPS tracking device with visual feedback.
