Today marks a major leap in connecting physical assets to the digital supply chain.
announce the launch of its first product variant: the ThinxGrid OBD Interface
Device.
This isn't just a tracking device; it's a powerful, compact Smart IoT Gateway for
Vehicle Telemetry & Logistics, designed and manufactured right here in
Bengaluru, India, to unlock granular data and drive predictive intelligence across
modern fleets.
Our core commitment remains: “Connecting Assets, Enabling Intelligence.”
Introducing the ThinxGrid OBD Interface Device (TG-OBD18F6K
Series)
The logistics and transportation sector is undergoing a massive transformation,
driven by the need for real-time visibility, cost efficiency, and improved safety. Our
new gateway is engineered to meet these demands by providing reliable, high-
fidelity data directly from the vehicle's heart.
The TG-OBD18F6K-H / TG-OBD18F6K-M models are designed for quick integration
and immediate data capture, making fleet digitalization accessible and highly
effective.
Key Features Driving Intelligence:
• Real-time GPS & Vehicle Diagnostics: Provides instantaneous location
tracking alongside vital vehicle health metrics, including engine status, fuel
consumption, and performance codes. This moves fleet management from
reactive repairs to proactive, predictive maintenance.
• Integrated GPRS (2G & 4G) Connectivity: Leveraging widely available and
robust 2G and 4G networks, the gateway ensures consistent data
transmission, minimizing coverage gaps and maximizing uptime, particularly
for fleets operating across vast geographic areas.
• CAN Bus Support for Fleet Integration: This is a crucial differentiator. The
device natively taps into the vehicle’s CAN Bus (Controller Area Network),
the vehicle’s internal nervous system. This allows fleet managers to access
deep operational data—from throttle position to brake usage—enabling true
driver behaviour analysis and detailed fuel efficiency monitoring.
• Dual Data Channel: HTTP / MQTT: Supports flexible and efficient data
transmission protocols. MQTT is ideal for large-scale IoT deployments,
ensuring lightweight, reliable data transfer even over intermittent networks,
which is essential for massive logistics operations.
• Compact 12V Operation: The plug-and-play design ensures simple
installation into the OBD-II port, requiring minimal power and installation
expertise, leading to lower total cost of ownership.
The Frugal Scientific Advantage: Intelligence Meets Engineering The launch of the ThinxGrid OBD Gateway is a direct extension of our parent
company's expertise in deep technology and efficient engineering.
robust, Frugal AI solutions—achieving maximum impact with minimal resources. The
data collected by the ThinxGrid gateway is the lifeblood for these advanced
systems:
1. Enabling MLOps: The high-quality, granular data captured via the CAN Bus
feeds directly into our MLOps pipelines, allowing us to train AI models that
predict vehicle component failures, optimize dynamic routing, and accurately
forecast demand.
2. Driving Sustainability: By providing accurate metrics on fuel use and idling
time, the gateway is the hardware foundation for our Reverse Logistics and
Carbon Credit Management solutions, helping clients measure and reduce
their environmental impact.
3. Scalable Product Engineering: Our commitment to embedded systems
expertise (including NXP, ST, and ESP32 models) ensures the ThinxGrid
device is engineered for rugged reliability, performance, and long-term
security in demanding logistics environments.
Connect Your Assets, Empower Your Decisions
The era of simple GPS dots on a map is over. Modern logistics demands context,
prediction, and optimization powered by deep vehicle intelligence. The ThinxGrid
OBD Interface Device delivers just that.
