8. What if… everything is
interconnected in HEALTHCARE
@iminds
#imindsconf!

9. Connected hospital
tracking of medical staff & patients
@iminds
#imindsconf!

10. Connected hospital
TODAY
nurses waste
'an hour a shift'
finding equipment
tracking of medical equipment
@iminds
#imindsconf!

11. Connected hospital
TODAY
hand-washing
only occurs 55%
of the time
Monitoring of hand-washing
@iminds
#imindsconf!

12. Connected hospital
TODAY
lack of access to
patient info
➔ loss of
valuable time
➔ errors of
medication
up-to-date electronic health record
@iminds
#imindsconf!

13. Connected patient
remote monitoring
smart pill box
improved discharge management
@iminds
#imindsconf!

14. What if… everything is
interconnected in MANUFACTURING
@iminds
#imindsconf!

15. Connected factory
check tolerance variations
self-tuning
self-diagnosis
forecast maintenance
improved machine performance through local sensing
@iminds
#imindsconf!

16. Connected factory
The main reason for
inefficiency is the lack of
real time and coherent
factory floor data being
made available
@iminds #imindsconf!
improved manufacturing process through global data analysis

17. Connected factory
TODAY: 30%-50% of
maintenance euros are
wasted through ineffective
maintenance management
“if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”
@iminds #imindsconf!
build predictive models for maintenance

18. Connected factory
higher staff productivity
& job satisfaction
remote configuration & real-time decision making
@iminds
#imindsconf!

19. Internet of Things Landscape
Interoperability?
