To enhance their security offerings, The Awareness Company required reliable and flexible tracking solutions for large sites, supporting vehicle and drone patrols. Their focus was on real-time data accuracy, ease of installation, and durability in diverse and harsh environments to ensure seamless asset monitoring and situational awareness.
To meet their client’s unique security needs, The Awareness Company utilized a range of Digital Matter devices, each adapted for specific use cases:
These devices play a critical role in real-time situational awareness for The Awareness Company’s security operations, enabling prompt response, secure perimeters, and enhanced overall operational efficiency. Each has been rigorously tested and proven effective in varied and demanding security environments.
To overcome unique challenges in deployment, The Awareness Company adapted Digital Matter tracking devices to better align with specific operational needs:
This flexibility in adapting the devices ensured that the most specific operational requirements could be met, optimizing performance in diverse environments.
By integrating Digital Matter devices into their solutions, The Awareness Company has been able to achieve significant outcomes for their clients:
The data collected is integrated into HYDRA, which uses AI to transform raw information into actionable insights. Unlike basic reporting tools, HYDRA offers an interactive, user-friendly experience, empowering users of all technical levels to make informed decisions and respond quickly to emerging situations.
“For us, the more data we get, the better HYDRA becomes. The reliability and flexibility of Digital Matter devices allow us to gather more data without downtime, which is an immense value add for our customers (which isn’t always the case with IoT solutions). The flexible setup and configurable firmware enable us to tailor the devices to specific use cases, delivering precise and reliable insights to our clients.” — The Awareness Company Team
The collaborative approach between The Awareness Company and Digital Matter has facilitated the adaptation of tracking devices to new use cases and the integration of additional sensors. This cooperation has contributed to the successful implementation of their projects, supported by high-quality devices and a reliable OEM server to meet their data requirements effectively.

Informal Recycling in South Africa Currently, more than 90,000 people in South Africa are making a living from collecting, sorting, and selling recyclable waste. According to the United Nation’s Industrial Development Organization, these ‘waste pickers’ collect between 80% and 90% of the country’s post-consumer plastic and paper packaging. The economic impacts of this are significant. In 2014, reclaimers saved municipalities R750 million in landfill space.
