The Internet of Things is transforming industries across the UAE β from smart buildings in Dubai to connected healthcare facilities and industrial automation in Abu Dhabi. At GeneralSoft, we design and build electronic systems that bridge the physical and digital worlds. Our expertise spans IoT architecture, embedded systems, sensor integration, and real-time data processing.
We work with the full IoT technology stack: from firmware and edge computing to cloud ingestion, data lakes, and analytics dashboards. Our team has hands-on experience with LoRaWAN, 5G, BLE, MQTT, and multiple cloud IoT platforms.
End-to-end IoT solutions from sensor selection and device management to cloud ingestion and analytics.
Firmware development for microcontrollers, Raspberry Pi, and custom embedded hardware with real-time processing.
Connected building systems including asset tracking, environmental monitoring, and predictive maintenance.
OPC-UA integration, industrial sensor networks, and real-time monitoring for manufacturing and logistics.
Our IoT portfolio includes clinical asset tracking, cloud IoT platforms, and connected mobile applications with real-world deployments.
Integrated IoT asset tracking with Azure IoT Hub for real-time medical equipment monitoring in a clinical environment. Used LoRaWAN and BLE for device connectivity, with 5G for high-bandwidth data transmission. The system tracked equipment location, usage patterns, and maintenance schedules, sending automated notifications for preventive maintenance. Integrated with HoloLens (AR) for immersive equipment data visualization.
Built IoT proof-of-concept systems across multiple cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP, IBM). Implemented IoT device management via MQTT protocols connecting Azure IoT Hub, Facebook, and AdaFruit IO. Worked with both virtual and physical IoT devices for sending and receiving notifications. Integrated SigFox and LoRaWAN for low-power wide-area network connectivity. Used Raspberry Pi with LTE for edge computing prototypes.
Integrated IoT sensors with a mobile recycling application for smart bin connectivity. Sensors monitored bin fill levels, temperature, and location, transmitting data via MQTT to the cloud. The mobile app displayed real-time bin status and guided users to the nearest available recycling point.
Implemented zero-touch continuous deployment for IoT device firmware and configuration. Built automated CI/CD pipelines using TFS 2015 Release Management that deployed IoT software updates across device fleets. The pipeline handled device provisioning, configuration management, and over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates.
Common questions about our electronic systems and IoT services.
We support a wide range of connectivity options including Wi-Fi, BLE, LoRaWAN, 5G, LTE-M, NB-IoT, and SigFox. The right choice depends on your use case β power consumption, range, bandwidth, and cost requirements. We help you select the optimal connectivity for your specific application.
Yes. IoT data is most valuable when it connects to your business systems. We integrate IoT data streams with ERP systems (SAP, Dynamics 365), CRM platforms, and analytics dashboards so that sensor data drives real business decisions and automated workflows.
We design and prototype custom IoT solutions using off-the-shelf hardware (Raspberry Pi, Arduino, ESP32) and can coordinate with manufacturing partners for custom PCB design and production when needed. Our focus is on the full system β hardware selection, firmware, connectivity, cloud, and application layers.
