Engineering Intelligence for Africa's Future
Sensorit Group develops advanced technologies that help governments, enterprises, and communities understand, optimise, and modernise the systems that power society. From intelligent infrastructure and industrial AI to digital payments, mobility, and sensing technologies, we build solutions that create measurable impact at scale.
Building Africa's Next Generation Technology Infrastructure
Sensorit Group is an African deep technology company focused on solving large-scale infrastructure, mobility, financial inclusion, and industrial intelligence challenges.
We develop technologies that help organisations move from reactive operations to intelligent, data-driven decision making — combining disciplines that rarely sit under one roof.

Ten Disciplines, One Operating System
Each capability is built to integrate with the others — sensing feeds analytics, analytics informs payments, payments inform identity.
Where Research Meets Real-World Impact
Intelligent Road Condition Monitoring
Successfully piloted on public roads and transportation networks, automatically detecting potholes, cracks, road markings, and road furniture using AI and edge computing.
Automated Asset Detection at Scale
Computer vision and edge computing identify road markings, signage, and furniture across entire networks — turning routine surveys into continuous, automated monitoring.
Financial Inclusion at Continental Scale
Digital payment technologies enabling access to banking and merchant services — wallets, card issuing, and social grant disbursement built for first-time digital users.
Predictive Analytics for Industrial Environments
Optimisation systems that monitor plant performance continuously, surfacing anomalies before they become downtime.
Where Research Meets Real-World Impact
Research Is Our Competitive Advantage
Sensorit works closely with researchers, engineers, universities, and industry experts to transform emerging technologies into deployable solutions.
Artificial Intelligence
Applied models for detection, prediction, and decision support.
Infrastructure Intelligence
Monitoring and optimising the systems that keep cities running.
Smart Mobility
Understanding how people and goods move across networks.
Radar Systems
Sensing that performs in heat, dust, and darkness alike.
Digital Finance
Rails built for the realities of African payments infrastructure.
Advanced Materials
Materials science for sustainability and industrial resilience.
Built and Led by Operators
Sensorit Group is led by a team with deep technical, financial, and commercial experience across African infrastructure, technology, and academic research.
Aubrey Mnisi
Aubrey is a South African technology entrepreneur and founder of Sensorit Group. He built his first company while studying at CPUT, before founding Data-Set Connection UG in Germany and co-founding Swissmic in Switzerland, working alongside research partners Fraunhofer IPK and Freie Universität Berlin. Today, he leads Sensorit's innovation across AI, fintech, intelligent sensing, and industrial technologies, while maintaining active research collaborations with the University of Cape Town.
Ntokozo Mdlalose (CA) SA
Ntokozo brings 16+ years of experience in corporate governance, public finance, and audit — beginning his career at Deloitte and serving as Chief Internal Auditor at the Independent Police Investigative Directorate before becoming CFO of the 83 Group. At Sensorit, he applies that institutional rigour to financial strategy, reporting, and governance across the group.
Dr Stephen Paine
A professor at the University of Cape Town, Dr Paine brings peer-reviewed research in sensing and applied AI directly into Sensorit's engineering roadmap — closing the gap between academic frontier work and production-grade systems deployed at national scale.
The future belongs to organisations that can see, understand, and optimise the systems around them.
Sensorit exists to build those capabilities — for governments, infrastructure operators, financial institutions, and industrial organisations across Africa and beyond.
