Disrupt-X, a Dubai-based IoT development company, has launched a water and air quality monitoring platform in partnership with Intel and Amazon Web Service (AWS).

Ignite Shield is hosted on AWS using Intel architecture. It is a full-stacked IoT product that can be scaled from a single asset up to city level.

Ignite Shield includes smart outdoor and indoor air quality monitoring, smart water infrastructure monitoring for water leakage with data breakdown, swimming pool monitoring, spa monitoring, water tanks monitoring, and water pressure monitoring.

It can be used for single homes and buildings, up to communities, and has a dashboard that can handle installations up to city level where alarms can be raised for government authorities, facility management companies, operators or individual end-users.

The system uses battery-powered devices with up to seven years life and works with communications protocols such as Sigfox, 5G, 4G and LoRaWan.

The IoT cloud-based offering includes a web platform and mobile application supported on iOS and Android devices. This is hosted on AWS using Intel architecture with AI, machine learning and deep learning to compute the data and give analytics.

“We strive to provide Disrupt-X with what they need so they can focus on their success with their customers and business,” said Adib Rajji, Intel’s enterprise and public sector manager for the Gulf region. “At Intel we enable an early development engagement so partners can take advantage of Intel’s leading-edge technology and edge to cloud offerings.”

Disrupt-X CEO Yaseen AlJaizani added: “It’s exciting to be at the forefront of IoT based technology, with our new products offering real practical life optimising uses such as air quality monitoring and water monitoring. Backed by Intel power enables seamless processing power and facilitating city wide rollout.”
