GPS positioning requires a large amount of power consumption, and battery capacity restricts the development of many industries, such as cars and mobile phones. In practical operation, you may find that if the GPS positioning function is enabled, the phone may run out of power in a few hours. GPS positioning trackers generally use larger capacity rechargeable batteries, but real-time operation still cannot meet the power consumption needs. The device volume and usage time are contradictory

　　For this reason, GPS has built-in 3D motion sensors, which determine whether the vehicle needs to be positioned by detecting body vibrations on the device itself. When the vehicle is detected to be stationary, it enters standby mode without positioning and communication, thus greatly saving battery power. Therefore, when the vehicle is stationary, it will appear offline

　　When the vehicle is in motion, the motion sensor detects body vibration and immediately wakes up the communication and positioning functions of the GPS positioning tracker, uploading the vehicle's position status in real-time to ensure data continuity

　　Through this method, combined with a large capacity rechargeable battery, it can be used for a longer period of time without installing a GPS positioning tracker to charge once (household cars can be used for about 1-3 months)

　　However, due to this characteristic, the usage time of the device will vary with the frequent changes of the vehicle, that is, the vehicle consumes a lot of electricity while driving, and the electricity consumption is very small when the vehicle is stationary.
