Case Studies Asset Tracking * Case Studies * Asset Tracking Challenge The asset tracking system required solar modules that could: Withstand power washing, hail, and debris impact Operate across wide temperature ranges Integrate with onboard GPS, cellular, and sensor electronics Deliver stable output at a defined operating voltage Maintain low profile and minimal added weight The system needed reliable energy input across varied weather conditions and transport environments. Approach We engineered the enclosure, mounting system, and solar module to align with the device’s voltage and environmental requirements. The final assembly integrates electronics, battery, and solar module into a sealed, low-profile housing mounted flush to the trailer roof. Solution The integrated solar assembly delivers defined power output, structural durability, and environmental protection for long-duration field deployment. Thousands of units are deployed across semi-trailers, cargo containers, and rail assets worldwide.
