In 2008 Internet-connected devices that can communicate with physical world without human involvement outnumbered those still require human operator. Internet of People became Internet of Things (IoT). How does it shape our world and what IT industry should be prepared for? Talk from IT Arena 2015: http://itarena.lviv.ua/

23. Internet of Things is all about
making conventional things
smart and connected.
And creating new categories of
devices with these traits.

26. So, what’s wrong with this picture?

28. Humans are too slow and inefficient
for this job

30. In 2008 number of connected
devices exceeded number of
people.
By 2020 there will be more
than 50 billion connected
devices in the world.

31. Internet of Things is already here

32. Why should we care?

33. - General Complexity of Systems
- Hardware Development
- Connectivity and Resources
- User Experience
Key changes

34. General complexity

36. - Linear development cycle
- Longer production and delivery cycle
- You can’t change actual hardware after
you released it
- Economy of scale: the more items you
produce, the less is the price of
individual item (and vice versa)
- Despite of all recent developments you
still have to have electronics expertise
in your team
HW development is hard

37. - Battery
- Limited processor and memory
- Various connectivity protocols
and poor standards
- Wireless networks and async
context
Connectivity and
Resources

38. - Display. Or no display
- Physical sensors as a data and
control input
- Contextual awareness
- Code running on different
devices
User Experience

39. Some not-so-obvious findings and
side notes

40. Internet of Things is all about
making conventional things
smart and connected.
And creating new categories of
devices with these traits.

41. Internet of
Industrial Things
will be much
bigger than
Internet of
Consumer Things

43. - More than 50 million (43%) of US
households already have
smartmeters
- 6+ million telematic units installed
on commercial fleet vehicles
- 175 million units: projected sales
of wearable devices in 2015
Sometimes it is closer
than you think

44. Security

45. Startup costs

47. Value

49. What’s next?
