ARGOS has arrived

Introducing the Arribada Horizon ARTIC R2 Developer’s Kit.

Add ARGOS satellite connectivity to your own device or design, or use it as a ready-to-go stand alone GPS and ARGOS tracker.

9

Plug-and-play out of the box

We’ve interfaced our Horizon GPS board with our new Argos ARTIC R2 transmitter to get you up and running quickly, compatible with next generation ARGOS-4 satellites and the future Kineis constellation of nanosatellites.

9

Developer friendly

Configure and modify settings using our straight forward Python tools over USB, or use the built-in Bluetooth 5.0 to communicate with the tag wirelessly.

Integrate into your custom solution

After evaluating, connect the Argos ARTIC transmitter to your own custom device / solution and integrate with your own hardware and microcontroller without having to re-spin the board.

Tracking Plastic for National Geographic’s Sea to Source Expedition

Where does plastic waste in the Gange’s river go? It’s a question National Geographic’s Sea to Source Expedition team wanted to answer. Using Arribada’s Horizon tracking platform, 30 plastic water bottles were outfitted with our new Argos ARTIC transmitter to track their journey down river to the open ocean.

Supporting tomorrow’s generation
of conservation technologists

Club Arribada

We re-invest proceeds made through Arribada’s conservation technology development work to provide free after-school digital literacy workshops and STEM activities to <13 year olds, that we call Club Arribada!

Our first club was established on Principe Island and offers conservation technology activities and classes in a safe and supported environment, enabling the children of Principe to grow up with the skills they need to become tomorrow’s conservation leaders.

The Arribada Club program is designed to accompany students throughout the whole school year, offering two classes per week, which amounts to around 40 classes per year.
