Â
Â
The internet of things can be loosely
defined as:
1. what happens when we
embed connectivity in everyday objects.
2. what happens when those objects
are designed with an understanding
of the affordances of the web.
4. the
 shape
 of
 the
 conversation
Â
Hardware
(open/closed)
Standards
Connectivity
Privacy
What things?
(wifi, zigbee/radio,
GSM)
Security
Battery life
5. Products
 as
 part
 of
 an
 ecology.
Â
Smart cities
What things?
Smart cars
Home automation
6. 3
 approaches.
Â
1. Design to extend.
2. Design to comfort.
3. Design to disrupt.
7. Design
 to
 extend.
Â
Your product extends the
capabilities of an existing device.
It’s tethered to a screen.
If connectivity is lost, the object
becomes unusable because
its control interface is inaccessible.
Non-objects, more like accessories.
12. Design
 to
 comfort
Â
(or
 trouble).
Â
Piggy-back on an existing product
and augment it with connectivity.
Technology is invisible so everything
looks normal.
This is Big Brother territory.
You may be redefining a user’s
assumptions about a product.
15. Design
 to
 disrupt.
Â
Develop a design language that is
unique to users’ interaction with
a new technology.
Developing a new visual
language consumers.
Develop a new space in retail.
23. It’s
 hard
 work
 but...
Â
Retail spaces aren’t ready.
The corporate world is catching on.
The investment world isn’t quite ready.
But consumers are.
It’s about being able to tell
the right stories.
24. It’s
 hard
 work
 but...
Â
It’s not about slow technology.
It’s about soft products.
Products that delight.
Products that engage.
Products that are thought
through differently.
25. Thanks.
