Trackonomy, a global pioneer in the miniaturization of advanced sensing and automation technologies, has announced a strategic partnership with Cellular Tracking Technologies (CTT) to accelerate the creation and deployment of next-generation miniature tracking systems. This collaboration seeks to deliver groundbreaking, ultra-light tracking solutions designed to transform operations across the defense, healthcare, environmental research, and logistics industries.
Through its subsidiary InPlay, Trackonomy contributes cutting-edge semiconductor innovations that are integral to CTT’s latest breakthrough, the solar-powered BlūMorpho tracker. Among the smallest wireless tracking devices ever used on a flying insect, the BlūMorpho is powered by InPlay’s flagship NanoBeacon SoC (IN100), an ultra-compact, ultra-low-power platform that enables unprecedented levels of miniaturization and energy efficiency.
“CTT technology is elevating our platform to unprecedented levels of miniaturization, power efficiency, and performance- achievements previously deemed unattainable,” said Dr. Erik Volkerink, CEO of Trackonomy. “This partnership underscores our capability to embed intelligence and connectivity into virtually any object, anywhere, even in the most demanding environments, delivering substantial value across diverse market segments.”
As part of the partnership, Trackonomy and CTT have developed a joint technology roadmap dedicated to further reducing the size and weight of tracking devices, building on the success of the BlūMorpho tracker. This roadmap outlines the creation of next-generation devices that are even smaller, lighter, and more energy-efficient, enabling deployment in environments and applications where tracking was once unfeasible.
By merging Trackonomy’s global deployment ecosystem and deep electronics expertise with CTT’s leadership in wildlife and micro-tracking innovation, the collaboration aims to broaden the capabilities and impact of a new generation of ultra-miniature sensors. Coordinated access to both organizations’ networks and distribution channels will help accelerate adoption across industries. Guided by Trackonomy’s vision to make electronics naturally integrate into the world, a journey “from labels to butterflies”, this initiative represents a significant step toward truly seamless, intelligent connectivity.
Michael Lanzone, CEO of CTT, added: “Our BlūMorpho transmitter represents a major scientific breakthrough. With Trackonomy’s support, we’re now able to scale this technology and accelerate the next wave of miniaturization.'”
Both organizations have already begun work on next-generation prototypes and pilot deployments, with continued emphasis on extreme miniaturization, ultra-low-power operation, and seamless integration into real-world environments.
