Smarter Movement-Based Tracking

Digital Matter’s battery-powered GPS trackers are engineered for long-lasting, maintenance-free asset visibility, ideal for trailers, containers, tools, and remote equipment. These devices deliver intelligent tracking without the need for external power, using smart behavior-based logic to optimize battery life and data usage. Key features include:

  • Periodic Tracking – Automatically reports the asset’s location at regular intervals throughout the day

  • Adaptive Tracking – Increases reporting frequency when movement is detected for more detailed journey data

  • Movement-Based Tracking – Sends real-time alerts the moment your asset is moved, helping prevent theft or unauthorized use

  • Sleep Mode – When stationary, devices enter a low-power state to conserve battery and reduce cellular data usage

With years of battery life and ultra-rugged enclosures, these trackers offer a powerful “fit and forget” solution for even the harshest environments.

Asset Tracking Software FAQs

 

Can I Configure The Devices To Work For My Use Case?

Yes! Our devices are fully configurable via our Device Management Platform. Here, you can access a comprehensive library of device parameters and make updates over-the-air without physically plugging into, retrieving or replacing devices.

What is a battery-powered GPS tracker?

A battery-powered GPS tracker is a self-contained device that uses GPS technology to determine its location and transmits this data wirelessly, operating solely on battery power for extended periods.

Can I integrate these devices with my platform?

Yes, all of our asset trackers are integration-ready. You can securely send data to any end platform. Learn more about device integration here.

How is my data protected?

We utilize military-level AES-256 encryption from our devices to Device Manager to protect the integrity and confidentiality of your data. Data forwarded to third-party systems, including location data, is sent via HTTPS for end-to-end security.

What types of assets can I track with these devices?

Any asset, anywhere. We offer the largest range of battery-operated GPS devices across a range of locations (indoor/outdoor) and connectivity technologies to best fit your use case. We have devices deployed on elephants, rhinos, bins, boats, pallets, returnable packaging, and much more. From trailer tracking to exotic animals, we have the asset tracker to track it!

How long will the device perform before I need to change the batteries?

Many of our devices can last up to 10 years before they require a battery change! However this is of course dependent on how you have configured the device, how often your asset is moving, and many other factors (like temperature, installation and orientation of the device, network coverage, sensor integrations, peripherals, accelerometer settings, and more).

Explore our device range and download the tech specs available to see battery life estimates per product. Warranty information is also available, just ask.

What type of batteries do your devices utilize?

This depends on what Digital Matter device you are deploying, however most of our devices support off-the-shelf AA or AAA Alkaline or Lithium (always recommended) batteries. Some also support Lithium Thionyl Chloride batteries. Please check the device's tech spec sheet on power consumption to confirm supported battery types.

What connectivity options are available?

Easily track your assets anywhere in the world across 2G, 4G, 5G, LTE-M/NB-IoT networks or LoRaWAN® networks.
