You can build a Minecraft-inspired compass with GPS.

Inspired by summer camp adventures, this compass saves and loads waypoints so you always know the way back.

The menu lets you pick previously saved locations and points you toward them as you explore outdoors.

This feature-packed compass has plenty of settings.

There are light and dark modes for any lighting, a marine mode, and adjustments for magnetic declination and units of measurement.

Powered by an Adafruit Feather RP2350, this project pairs a mini GPS module with a gyroscope and accelerometer.

The boards work together to sense the Earth's magnetic field and gather your GPS location.

Sensor calibration is handled right on the device, with a step-by-step walk-through that needs no computer.

Powered by CircuitPython, the code lets you rename the preset waypoints, set your local magnetic declination, and switch between miles and kilometers.

You can fine-tune the feel by editing the needle smoothing, the button hold time, or the case-fit offsets for your own enclosure.
