Keys to Success
Owa450A+ deployed with LTE, GNSS and 9-axis MEMS capabilities.
Selection of industry-standard programming in Debian and Python.
Seamless CANbus integration for real-time drivetrain data capture.

Results
Data visualised via Grafana and EV Portal on cloud.
Owa450A+ met all technical and operational requirements for EV integration.
Plug-and-play, CAN-compatible system with instant data logging upon connection.
Magtec, a leading UK-based manufacturer of electric vehicle platforms, sought to enhance its standard EV offering with a versatile telematics solution, providing customers ranging from bus to rail operators with instant access to real-time vehicle data.
Hubit supplied and supported the Owasys Owa450A+ hardware, pre-configured with LTE, GNSS and a 9-axis MEMS sensor. Integrated directly into Magtec’s EV platform, the device captures data from onboard CAN systems and GPS sensors. The system buffers data when connectivity is lost and synchronises it with a secure cloud environment once restored, ensuring no data is missed during transit.
Data is visualised through two platforms: Grafana for technical diagnostics and system performance analysis, and the EV Portal, a user-friendly tool offering real-time insights into vehicle status, location and energy consumption. Supporting the full deployment, Hubit provides hardware configuration, technical consultancy, stock holding and drop-shipping services, ensuring Magtec’s projects run smoothly from prototype to production with a future-proof, scalable upgrade path.
