Digital Matter Griffin Air – Global asset tracker for air freight and logistics
The Digital Matter Griffin Air is a robust GPS tracker specifically designed for the global tracking of valuable assets, containers, and air freight. Thanks to the combination of 4G connectivity, GPS, Wi-Fi positioning, and Bluetooth®, the Griffin Air provides reliable location determination both indoors and outdoors.
What sets this tracker apart is the automatic flight detection. During a flight, wireless transmissions are automatically disabled to comply with aviation regulations. Sensor and location data are still stored and automatically sent immediately after landing. This makes the Griffin Air extremely suitable for international air transport.

Smart energy management
The Griffin Air is designed for long-term use without external power. Thanks to intelligent energy-saving features and adaptive tracking, additional reports are only generated when an asset is actually in motion. As a result, the tracker can operate for years on a single set of batteries.
Robust design
The compact housing is resistant to harsh conditions. With an IP67 rating, the Griffin Air is protected against dust, rain, and temporary immersion. This makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Integration with Telematics Guru
The Griffin Air can be fully integrated within the Telematics Guru platform from Digital Matter, allowing locations, movements, and sensor data to be clearly displayed in one dashboard. Notifications, geofencing, and reports can be easily set up and linked to existing business processes.
