About Velavu

Velavu is a real-time asset tracking system that gives mining operations complete visibility of their vehicles and equipment. The end-to-end solution combines versatile hardware — trackers in various sizes and capabilities — with intuitive web and mobile apps, providing everything needed to monitor assets effortlessly across an entire operation.

Underground mining demands tracking solutions that work where GPS can't reach. Velavu delivers this using a battery-powered mesh locating system that's quick to deploy — every kilometre of drift takes less than an hour to install, with no disruption and no infrastructure changes required. Track man-carriers, scoops, scissor decks, hand tools, and more from a single, easy-to-use dashboard.

Velavu has proven its reliability across rail, logistics, and facilities management. A CES Innovation Award winner, the platform helps operations reduce costs, improve asset utilization, and gain the visibility needed to run more efficiently.

Technology

Velavu's real-time asset tracking solution delivers near-real-time location visibility for underground mining operations. The system consists of wireless anchors installed on drift walls, forming a self-contained mesh network that automatically locates asset tags throughout the mine. All communication happens within the network itself — only the gateway requires an internet connection to sync data to the cloud. Tag devices mounted on assets such as vehicles, equipment, and hardhats are located automatically as they move through the mesh, eliminating the need to send personnel underground for manual equipment logs. This reduces search time, minimizes downtime, and gives operations managers the information they need to make faster, better-informed decisions that improve overall productivity.
