BraveJIG Wins the 2026 Good Design Award

Recognized for its unique approach of “turning IoT implementation into a jig-like system”

Braveridge Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture; Representative Director: Yasunari Kobashi) has received the 2026 Good Design Award, organized by the Japan Institute of Design Promotion, for its general-purpose IoT/DX modular device, BraveJIG.

BraveJIG was recognized for providing a system that standardizes the elements required for IoT implementation in a jig-like manner, enabling anyone to repeatedly deploy IoT solutions using the same procedures and with consistent quality.

Award Overview

Awarded Product : General-purpose IoT/DX modular device BraveJIG

Product Overview :
BraveJIG is an “IoT implementation jig” designed to repeatedly enable IoT deployment with the same procedures and consistent quality at any worksite. By combining modules according to the intended application and simply retrofitting them to existing equipment, it enables rapid visualization of on-site operations.

Evaluation Comments from the Good Design Award Jury

This product enables flexible IoT configurations tailored to on-site needs by freely combining standardized sensors, routers, power supplies, and mounting bases as modules and retrofitting them to existing equipment. Since operation can begin using only a LAN without an internet connection, it can also be introduced in factories with strict security requirements, while pairing is completed simply by touching the modules together. The enclosures are based on black and color-coded according to functions such as routers, batteries, and sensing, creating an enjoyable visual appearance. By applying the concept of a “jig”—a manufacturing support device that allows skilled techniques to be reproduced quickly and repeatedly by anyone—the product lowers the barrier to IoT implementation and represents an excellent design.
