Disrupt-X and Imdaad

Imdaad Group has announced its recent partnership with Disrupt-X, a Dubai-based IoT development company, to introduce IoT technology to enhance FM services in the UAE by monitoring the indoor air quality (IAQ) as well as the water quality of swimming pools and tanks.

Disrupt-X’s IoT cloud solution, Ignite Shield, aims to manage swimming pools and ensure high indoor air quality in buildings conveniently through a cloud platform and mobile app. The full-stacked IoT solution can be scaled from a single asset up to the city level which makes it a beneficial tool for FM companies across the country. Disrupt-X’s Ignite Shield features an impressive portfolio of multiple solutions, namely, Smart Outdoor and Indoor Air Quality Monitoring, Smart Water Infrastructure Monitoring (water leakage with data breakdown), swimming pool monitoring, SPA monitoring, water tanks monitoring, industrial assets monitoring, and water pressure monitoring from single homes to buildings and communities. It also includes a Portfolio Dashboard up to the city level where alarms can be raised for government authorities, facility management companies, operators, or individual end-users. These solutions use long-life battery devices (up to 7 years) with the latest communication protocols such as Sigfox, 5G, 4G, LoraWAN, Wi-Fi, etc.

These IoT cloud-based solutions have a robust web platform and Mobile Applications supported on both iOS and Android devices which are hosted on AWS using Intel Architecture using AI, machine learning and deep learning algorithms to compute the data and provide beneficial Analytics.

Moreover, it is ideal for facility management companies like Imdaad Group to save effort and time in taking readings to ensure good quality of air and water for their customers by adopting the cutting-edge IOT technologies.
