Van veld tot beheerkamer, in vier lae.
Field Nodes
Per-fitting smart nodes with sensors, comms and edge logic.
GSM / LoRa Gateway
Aggregates node telemetry over hybrid wireless.
LumaTrack Cloud
POPIA-compliant cloud with 99.5% SLA and regional redundancy.
Web + Mobile + Dispatch
Operator portals, contractor mobile, and armed response feed.
Van rand tot kliënt — intelligente datavloei
LumaTrack collects data from smart lighting assets at the edge, processes and classifies events on the platform, and routes real-time insights through role-based portals to the right teams and clients for action.

Edge
Smart devices and sensors on lighting assets capture real-time operational and environmental data at the source.
Platform
The LumaTrack platform classifies events, logs data and routes real-time insights through the event bus.
Portals
Role-based portals decode events, prioritise actions and assign tasks to the right teams instantly.
Client
Clients receive actionable reports, dashboards and incidents in the format they need, when they need it.

Rand-waarneming, wolk-gevalideer.
Every LumaTrack node carries a stack of low-power sensors that continuously sample the local environment and the electrical state of the asset it's bolted to. Detections are made at the edge (on the node) for instant response and validated at the cloud against historical baselines to suppress false positives.
| Detection | Sensor / Metode | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Lamp failure | Current draw vs. expected schedule | Auto-create fault, assign nearest contractor |
| Cable theft | Sudden current drop > threshold across two upstream nodes | Critical alert, GPS-pinpoint break, notify Risk + SAPS |
| Cable fault (insulation, joints) | Resistance / impedance mismatch between paired nodes | Standard alert with calculated GPS of fault midpoint |
| Kiosk / mini-sub door open | Reed switch + accelerometer | Tamper alert with photo (where camera fitted) + dispatch |
| Enclosure shake / impact | 3-axis accelerometer thresholding | Vandalism alert, real-time |
| Power loss to feeder | Loss of mains + battery hold-up | Mass-event alert, indicates upstream transformer/feeder issue |
| Comms loss | Heartbeat absence > 10 min | Offline alert, distinguishes from power loss |
| Energy anomaly | kWh trending vs. baseline | Highlights bypass / unauthorised tap |
| Unauthorised site visit | GPS of staff vs. logged work order | Risk Portal investigates |
Rand-tot-wolk-opsporing in drie stappe
Sample
Each node samples voltage, current, vibration, door state and GPS.
Decide
Local thresholds raise an alert in < 2 s — no need to wait for a server round-trip.
Validate
The cloud cross-checks the alert against neighbouring nodes and historical baselines, then promotes it to Info / Warning / Critical and routes it to the right portal.
Ernsvlak-gebaseer. Tydsensitief. Aksie-gedrewe.
Every alert is classified, prioritised and delivered through the right channels — with an SLA clock that starts the moment the event is detected. Critical events fire portal chimes, SMS and voice calls in under two minutes; warnings flow to portal alerts and email; informational events queue silently for the next visit.

End-tot-end. Tydgestempel. Verantwoordbaar.
Every event follows the same 10-step lifecycle — Detect, Validate, Notify, Acknowledge, Dispatch, Respond, Investigate, Repair, Report, Review. Each step records both the system action and the human action, is time-stamped, visible across all portals and measured against SLA. One flow. Risk, Admin and Contractor — aligned.
