The Pulse

Arizona State University

Connect to the life of the building and its inhabitants in real time.

Unified Field partnered with Arizona State University’s Beus Center for Law and Society and Ennead Architects to create the PULSE, a location-aware communication platform and mobile app that provides dynamic access and connections into the life of the building and its inhabitants. The PULSE system aggregates user-generated, live data that encourages students, faculty, and guests to connect with each other, and allows them to navigate the building, receive alerts, form groups, schedule events, book spaces, and access the school’s vast storehouse of knowledge and information in real time.
