dAISy FeatherWing AIS Receiver

The dAISy FeatherWing is a dual-channel AIS receiver with integrated low-noise amplifier (LNA). Thanks to its small size and low power consumption the dAISy FeatherWing is ideally suited for embedded applications. AIS (automatic identification system) is an automatic tracking system for ships. Ships broadcast their position and other information over VHF. The dAISy FeatherWing allows you to receive these transmissions, enabling real-time tracking of nearby vessels. The dAISy FeatherWing outputs the AIS data as a stream of ASCII messages, which are encoded in a marine standard format known as NMEA AIVDM sentences. This format is understood by applications and devices like chart plotters, marine traffic aggregators, and can be processed by many opensource libraries. While the dAISy FeatherWing is designed to be mounted directly on top of any Adafruit Feather development board, it can also be used with other microcontrollers and single board computers.
