In this article, the construction and experimental behavior of an Internet of Things (IoT)-compatible steel health monitoring system are examined. Falling under the general category of nondestructive testing, this new sensor is combined with an energy harvester to produce an autonomous automated device that can measure, store, and transmit measuring data without any need for human intervention. Based on common principles like the Hall effect, the monitoring system is put to use, and its results are presented.
