At Pulse IoT Technologies, research and development is not a department — it is the foundation of everything we build. Our technology is born from rigorous scientific inquiry, multi-year university partnerships, and real-world field validation across the UAE and the wider region.
We believe that corrosion monitoring for critical infrastructure must be grounded in independent evidence, not just commercial claims. That is why every component of the Pulse IoT100 system — from the electrochemical sensing elements to the data acquisition hubs — has been designed, tested, and refined through structured academic and laboratory programmes.
Every claim we make about sensor performance is backed by independently conducted testing, peer-reviewed research, or documented field trials. Our investors, clients, and partners can trace every capability to a verifiable source.
Pulse IoT maintains active R&D collaborations with leading regional and international universities. These partnerships ensure our technology is scientifically rigorous, independently validated, and continuously advancing.
Pulse IoT commissioned ISAC at AUD to conduct a rigorous, independent 6-month experimental programme evaluating the Pulse IoT100 sensor under controlled corrosion conditions. Led by Dr. Mohamad Nagi, Ph.D., the programme tested sensor response to chloride-induced corrosion in reinforced concrete specimens, producing quantitative electrochemical data across multiple sensing depths.
Pulse IoT collaborates with AUS on the development and refinement of sensing technology, sensor geometry, and field deployment methodologies for embedded corrosion monitoring in concrete structures.
Pulse IoT works with corrosion specialists and engineering laboratories in Jordan and across the GCC to test sensor performance under varying environmental conditions including humidity, temperature extremes, and high-chloride marine environments.
The Pulse IoT100 is not an off-the-shelf sensor. It is a purpose-engineered electrochemical system designed from first principles for embedded, long-life deployment inside reinforced concrete structures in harsh environments.
Two sensing elements positioned at 15 mm and 33 mm from the rebar provide a layered view of chloride ingress through the concrete cover — enabling staged alert levels before corrosion reaches structural steel.
The sensor measures electrochemical potential between each sensing element and the rebar — producing quantitative corrosion rate data and cumulative metal loss figures continuously over time.
Sensors are manufactured using advanced 3D-printing technology, allowing precise geometry control, consistent cover depth positioning, and durability in high-chloride, high-humidity GCC environments.
A metallic strip on the underside of the sensor provides direct electrical connectivity with the steel rebar, ensuring accurate reference measurements and stable long-term data continuity.
The sensing elements are only part of the system. Pulse IoT has developed a complete data acquisition and connectivity stack that transforms raw electrochemical signals into actionable infrastructure intelligence.
Wireless IoT data acquisition hubs collect, process, and transmit sensor readings in real time
Secure cloud transmission enables continuous monitoring from any device without site visits
AI-powered analytics layer processes electrochemical data streams to generate corrosion probability scores, service life predictions, and maintenance alerts
The platform supports portfolio-level monitoring — multiple structures, multiple sensors, single dashboard
