Lots of different ways...
1. expose an API using Node.js for your PHP web app to call (e.g. build a REST API around the GPS module) 2. if node and PHP are on the same physical server, and it is a low use (e.g. under 20 concurrent users) system, you could write a file in PHP and have Node look (directory watch) for that file to read and execute whatever commands are in the file. 3. you could use a 3rd party cache, like ehCache, to store commands from PHP and read (poll for) them from Node. 4. you could also do that with a database (store record in PHP, read (poll for) the record in Node. 5. Ditch PHP altogether and build the webapp in Node. That's just 4 off the top of my head :) If it were me, I'd build a REST API in Node and call it from PHP - it's the cleanest of the solutions if you're tied to PHP for your webapp. Otherwise, just write the webapp in Node as well.
