Every space is full of signals. A cooler drifting warm. A cart that moved. A room nobody checked. Locate Node is designed to listen for them, so you do not have to.
Design
Matte black.Quietly brilliant.
A device made to be seen, in places where most hardware is hidden. Refined enough for a dining room. Tough-looking enough for a factory floor.
01
A light bar that speaks
One horizontal RGB bar is designed to show operation, connectivity and system status at a glance.
02
An antenna with intent
An external antenna, out in the open, where a radio belongs.
03
One cable
USB-C power. That is the whole installation diagram.
04
On the wall, out of the way
Designed for wall mounting, with a serviceable enclosure and premium fasteners.
The whole idea, in three numbers.
- 4
- kinds of Bluetooth devices it is designed to hear
- Temperature, humidity, environmental sensors and asset tags.
- 3
- ways to connect what it hears
- VexaOs, MQTT and HTTP/HTTPS.
- 1
- cable to power it
- USB-C.
How it works
From a whisperto a decision.
Sensors
Supported Bluetooth sensors and asset tags broadcast nearby.
Locate Node
Designed to collect those broadcasts and pass them on.
VexaOs Cloud & AI
Where readings become history, alerts and plain-language insights.
Your phone
The VexaOs apps for web, iOS and Android.
Cloud services, alerts and analytics may require a separate software subscription.
See it in a building
One building.Every signal, in its place.
A walk-in, a kitchen, a dock, a machine room. Point at anything to see what it measures, which Locate Node hears it, and what it could tell you.
Hover or tab through the markers.
An illustration, not a floor plan of a real site. Readings are examples. Ripples show a zone, not a measured range. Locations are estimated per room and depend on where nodes are placed. Locate Node is in development: supported sensor types are confirmed at launch.
What it is designed to do
One device.A building full of answers.
It listens to your sensors
Collects wireless broadcasts from supported Bluetooth Low Energy sensors: temperature, humidity, environmental and more.
It notices what is nearby
Identifies nearby Bluetooth asset tags. Place several nodes around a building for room-level and zone-based location estimates.
It keeps you aware
Connect readings and observations to monitoring platforms for visualization, alerts, history and analysis.
It speaks your language
VexaOs, MQTT, HTTP/HTTPS. Use the platform you have, or the one you are building.
It tells you how it is doing
A precision light bar, designed as a calm visual signal for operation and connectivity.
It belongs
Compact, matte black, with refined branding. Made to sit in a professional space without apology.
Made for real places
Front of house.Back of house.Everywhere in between.
Designed for
- Warehouses and distribution centers
- Manufacturing and industrial facilities
- Restaurants and hospitality
- Medical offices and healthcare operations
- Commercial offices and campuses
- Retail and inventory management
- Equipment storage and maintenance
- Smart buildings and connected workplaces
Two ways to run it
Choose how it connects.

The old way, and this way
Stop walking the floorwith a clipboard.
| The old way | With Locate Node |
|---|---|
| Someone walks the building and writes readings down. | Designed to collect readings wirelessly from supported sensors. |
| You hear about a problem after it has happened. | Connect readings to alerts and history in your monitoring platform. |
| “Where is that cart?” Ask around. | Room-level and zone-based estimates with several nodes. |
| Your data lives in one closed box. | VexaOs, MQTT and HTTP/HTTPS: your data goes where you need it. |

Compatibility
Plays well with others.
Sensors and tags
- Temperature sensors
- Humidity sensors
- Environmental monitors
- Bluetooth asset tags
Supported Bluetooth Low Energy devices only. Compatible devices and supporting software are required. Ask us about yours.
Connectivity
- VexaOs (Standard edition)
- MQTT (Open Integration)
- HTTP / HTTPS (Open Integration)
What it is not
- Not GPS.
- Not guaranteed precise indoor positioning: location estimates depend on where nodes are placed and on the environment.
Questions. Answered straight.
Can I buy it today?
Not yet. Locate Node is in development. The first production units will be offered after hardware validation and software compatibility testing. Leave your email and we will tell you the moment it is available.
Does it track things with GPS?
No. Locate Node listens for nearby Bluetooth tags. With several nodes it supports room-level and zone-based estimates, which depend on node placement and the environment. It does not provide GPS or guaranteed precise indoor positioning.
What else do I need?
Compatible Bluetooth devices and supporting software. Advanced analytics, notifications and cloud services may require a separate software subscription.
Will it work with my sensors?
It is designed for supported Bluetooth Low Energy sensors, including compatible temperature, humidity, environmental and asset-tracking devices. Tell us what you use and we will tell you where it stands.
Do I have to use VexaOs?
No. The Open Integration edition is designed for MQTT and HTTP/HTTPS, for third-party systems and your own software.
Is this the VexaOs Edge Gateway?
No. Locate Node is a separate, compact device that is still in development. The VexaOs Edge Gateway is a different product, available today.
