Sensing & Data The physical world, made measurable.
Sensing and digitalisation of spaces, assets and movement: what is where, how busy it is, how it moves, captured privately and in real time, then turned into data people can act on. It comes out of REKA’s applied R&D and lives in Harmonik, REKA’s sensing division.
It began with the sensors and edge computing we built for our 2016 self-driving car. The rule has not changed since: count what matters, never who it is.
What we work on
Roads, buildings, warehouses and the devices that read them, with privacy designed in from the sensor up.
With Murata, a traffic-counting system localised for Malaysia: vehicle class, count and CO2 within each sensor’s coverage, analysed in real time. It counts vehicles and never detects the people inside them.
The case study →How many people are in each space, and never who they are: no faces, and no video ever exists. Our crowd analytics work across Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam was recognised by Frost & Sullivan (Best Crowd Analytics, 2022).
Property & facilities →A warehouse or yard drawn as it really is, from zones down to spaces, with cargo, bookings and movements on top. This became PLExyz Grid, now an AntaraX product, free for one facility.
PLExyz →Low-power location inference that runs on the device: dead-reckoning fused with GNSS, built for sites where connectivity drops and privacy is not optional. The Lab proved it, and it became PLExyz.
The Lab’s record →When no product fits, we design the sensors and edge devices with you. Our open IoT dev board, now on its third revision, is how a sensing idea becomes a field prototype.
Custom Build →Sensing is only the first step. The data feeds applied AI that makes sense of it, and automation that acts on it, with a person in the loop.

Over 32,000 active vehicles counted each month in Cyberjaya, with the data prepared for the Sepang Municipal Council.

How to work with us on it
Sensing and data are what we work on. These are the three ways in.
Let the readings trigger the work, with a person in the loop. PLExyz Crowd runs as a Managed AI pilot: we set it up on your site, keep it running and improve it with you.
Service Consulting & AdvisoryWork out what is worth measuring, and what the data must never capture, before a single sensor goes up.
Service Custom Build & R&DThe sensing work no product covers: sensors, edge devices and the data platform behind them, designed with you and owned by you.
