Digital Matter Launches New Tracking Solution
New Remote Monitoring Solution: Accuracy, Performance and Longevity
Digital Matter, a leader in low-power GPS and IoT hardware development, has launched the Manta Fusion, an exciting advancement to their battery-powered solutions that combines the company’s best technology into a single, powerful unit.
Building on the legacy of Digital Matter’s best-selling Oyster devices, the Manta Fusion is engineered to deliver reliable and highly accurate location updates with a remarkable battery life of over 10 years through movement-based tracking.
The Manta Fusion features both a true GNSS module and a Wi-Fi scanning module, ensuring precise outdoor tracking and accurate positioning indoors. Additionally, the device features cell tower location fallback, allowing for continuous tracking even when other positioning methods are unavailable. With an integrated Bluetooth Gateway, the Manta Fusion serves as a hub for numerous BLE tags and sensors, enhancing its functionality for diverse applications.
“We’re excited to deliver a solution that offers superior outdoor location accuracy while maintaining the same exceptional indoor performance as our highly regarded Edge device range,” said Ken Everett, CEO of Digital Matter.
Designed with a low-profile form factor, the Manta Fusion allows for discreet installation, while its rugged IP68 housing, constructed from durable nylon glass material, ensures exceptional protection against environmental challenges. The battery holder is now integrated into the housing, providing improved heat resistance and a lower cost, while the new design allows for easy activation and tamper detection using a magnet.
Key features of the Manta Fusion enabling the next development in our tracking solutions include:
Multi-Mechanism Location Determination: The device utilizes a combination of true GNSS, Wi-Fi scanning, and cell tower positioning to achieve excellent outdoor and indoor accuracy.
Ultra Efficient Low-Power Technology: Featuring a low-power Sony GNSS chip similar to that used in smartwatches, the Manta Fusion optimizes battery life without compromising performance.
Flexible Monitoring Capabilities: Users can prioritize location technology based on their specific use cases, ensuring the most effective tracking method is utilised.
Additionally, the upcoming Cat 1bis version of the Manta Fusion will offer global roaming capabilities with low power consumption and satellite fallback options. A further innovation, Energy Saving Protocol (ESP) will provide significant battery life improvements with on-demand location and recovery mode features, further enhancing the device’s utility.
The Manta Fusion represents a significant development in tracking technology available on the market, ideal for businesses that prioritize location accuracy, without having to compromise on performance or longevity.
