Tony Maddison , the man behind the popular WiTi anti-theft system .

The Australian-made RV security system WiTi has been named as a finalist in the 2023 Western Australia Innovator of the Year Awards . The awards , which have been celebrating ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit since 2006 , showcase and support outstanding achievements of individuals , businesses , and creative minds across Western Australia .

“ WiTi ' s inclusion as a finalist in this esteemed awards program serves as a testament to the company ' s commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation and revolutionising the technology landscape ,” WiTi company director Tony Maddison said . “ This acknowledgment reaffirms our team ' s dedication to driving innovation and making a positive impact on our community and beyond .”

WiTi is , essentially , an anti-theft system . Designed for caravans and trailers , it uses a highly sensitive gyroscope to detect theft attempts , engaging the trailer ’ s brakes to prevent it from being towed . The caravan / trailer lights will flash and a 105db alarm will draw attention to any activity . The system can offer a host of other benefits , too , including a wireless towing interface which controls the van ’ s tail-lights without a hardwired connection .
