+// gps.hpp — u-blox NMEA GPS reader over UART

+// Hardware pins (THE TRUTH):
+//   GPIO14/TXD0 → UBLOX_TX line  (/dev/serial0)
+//   GPIO15/RXD0 → UBLOX_RX line
+//   Default baud: 9600
+//
+// Enable UART: sudo raspi-config → Interfaces → Serial Port
+//   "login shell over serial" = No, "serial port hardware" = Yes
