The Company offers a full suite of engineering, installation and security management solutions to industries and governments. Coupled with our patented BOTDA dark-pulse technology (the “DarkPulse Technology”), DarkPulse provides its customers a comprehensive data stream of critical metrics for assessing the health and security of their infrastructure. Our comprehensive system provides for rapid, precise analysis and responsive activities predetermined by the end-user customer.
Historically, distributed sensor systems have been too costly, slow and limited in their capabilities to attain widespread use. In addition, Brillouin-based sensors have been plagued with temperature and strain cross-sensitivity, i.e. the inability to distinguish between temperature and strain change along the same fiber. The loss of spatial resolution with an increase in fiber length has also limited the use of distributed sensor systems. Due to these shortcomings, existing technologies are unable to succeed within today’s dynamic environments, and needs for more advanced sensor technologies have remained unsatisfied.
By contrast to existing technologies, the DarkPulse Technology is a distributed-fiber sensing system, based on dark-pulse Brillouin scattering, which reports in real-time on conditions such as temperature, stress, strain and load, initially for pipeline and mining installations.
DarkPulse Technology’s differentiators from and advantages over existing technologies:
· Real-time Reporting: Higher data acquisition speeds allowing for structural monitoring of dynamic systems
· Cost to Customer: Significantly lower acquisition and operating costs
· Precision: A greater magnitude of precision and spatial resolution than other systems currently available
· Applications: Wider range of capabilities than other systems currently available
· Power consumption: Lower power consumption than existing systems allowing for off-grid installations
· Integration: Capable of integrating with existing systems
· Central station monitoring
We believe that these key advantages should allow the Company not only to enter existing markets, but more importantly, to open new market opportunities with new applications. The Company intends to leverage new applications to target clients that have been unable to make use of distributed fiber optic technology to date.

· Recurring subscription fees paid by enterprise/government users for access to our 24/7 monitoring services of their critical infrastructure;
· Recurring subscription fees paid by enterprise/government users for access to our applications by enterprises/governments;
· Recurring subscription fees paid by enterprise users for access to data stored in the cloud that may be integrated into large, third-party providers such as Oracle, Google Cloud; and Microsoft; among others;
· Recurring subscription fees paid by enterprise/government users who subscribe to bundled service offerings.
Our Market
Current uses of fiber optic distributed sensor technology have been limited to quasi-static, long-term structural health monitoring due to the time required to obtain the data and its poor precision. Our DarkPulse Technology allows for the monitoring of highly dynamic environments due to its magnitude of increased resolution and greater accuracy. The resulting high speed, real-time monitoring capabilities of our DarkPulse Technology should satisfy a broad range of existing and emerging requirements. Use of the DarkPulse Technology by our customers should result in lower production costs with increased sensing capabilities that can integrate with existing technology and be upgraded cost effectively.
Due to the characteristics of the fiber used in fiber optic sensing, the uses of our DarkPulse Technology are wide ranging. Optical fiber is hard-wearing, which allows it to be used in environments where other technologies fail (for example, at temperatures ranging from -40°C to 300°C and 1000psi). Additionally DarkPulse Technology’s sensors allow for live sensing due to the speed at which the analysis takes place.
The Company’s management team is continually identifying markets in which our DarkPulse Technology may be readily applied. Once these markets (as described below) have been addressed, our DarkPulse Technology may be adapted and applied to new markets.
