Beacon Technology: What Brands and Marketers Need to KnowBBDO
Beacon technology has the potential to disrupt the way brands–particularly retail brands–think about the intersection of the physical retail experience and the mobile experience. Using beacons wisely, retailers will be able to play the part of a gracious, individually attentive host, combining the users’ interests, intent and physical location.
iBeacon and IoT: Where We're At, Where We're GoingDoug Thompson
iBeacon and Bluetooth LE technology has seen rapid adoption since Apple announced support last summer. This presentation at the IoT Waterloo meet-up summarizes a few of the key success factors, myths and questions surrounding iBeacon and Bluetooth LE deployment.
Introduction
Beacons are small wireless devices that broadcast signals using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), or Bluetooth SMART technology. Mobile apps on compatible devices are able to listen for signals from beacons placed in the physical world and then trigger an experience via the app.
Beacon enabled apps are notified when the device enters or exits the range of a beacon, and are also able to monitor the distance from the beacon as it changes, often referred to as 'ranging'.
Bluetooth Low Energy
BLE or Bluetooth Smart is an intelligent and power friendly version of Bluetooth wireless technology and exchanges data over short distances using radio transmissions. The power of BLE is in its ability to work with an app on a smartphone, tablet or any other compatible mobile device.
The Beacon System
The Beacon system from Apple can be broken down into two parts:
• A piece of hardware – the “Beacon”, which constantly broadcasts a Bluetooth Low Energy signal. This transmits a unique identifier (UUID) and two further identifiers; major and minor (unsigned 16 bit integer values), which can be used to identify the beacon.
• Application Programmable Interface (API) - An API to search for beacons with a certain UUID and optionally a specific major and minor value. iBeacon adds the possibility for the developer to subscribe to beacons like you would subscribe to geolocations. This enables the app to get notifications (whether the app is currently running or not) when the user gets within range of a specific beacon.
Importance
• High degree of accuracy
• Low impact on battery life
• Low cost of entry
• No Internet connection required
Security
Some of the most common beacon security myths:
• Beacons are transmitting personal data:
Beacons don’t transmit any personal data. In fact, beacons don’t receive any data at all.
• Beacons are tracking my location:
Beacons can’t track your location. The only thing they can do is let your mobile device know that you’re nearby.
Compatibility
Beacons work with both Android and iOS. They were initially introduced in iOS7 and are compatible with every Android version > 4.3
This puts beacon functionality in 300 million + devices.
Conclusion
Beacons transmit a low energy signal from a device with a radius of 0-50 meters to broadcast static pieces of data within short distances.
In a nutshell, our basic requirements for an operational beacon are:
1. Beacon enabled mobile app
2. Network of deployed beacons
3. Bluetooth switched on and relevant permissions
Without a doubt, the Beacon is a useful convergence device that can be given a shot at, which is for sure a revolution in technology
At space150, we work at the intersection of physical and digital; connecting the touchpoints of a brand's experience, from its physical presence to online channels. A popular technology in this space right now is Apple's iBeacon. As we've started several iBeacon projects with our partners and potential partners, we’ve done our research, created a simple way to think about iBeacon, and wanted to share it.

2. Validate If Beacons Are Needed
3. Know Your Operating Systems
4. Understand BLE Background Modes
5. Convey Value During Onboarding
6. Handle Bluetooth Off States
7. Provide Privacy Settings
8. Ensure User Interface Matches Beacon Accuracy
9. Utilize Beacon Cloud Management
10. Deploy with Interference in Mind
11. Aggregate Analytics Centrally
What are Beacons and how do they work? What are their different uses? How does it compare to other technologies? What are Golden Gekko's recommendations regarding the use of Beacons?
Beacons are the missing link between the offline world and the digital space. They bring to life a new way of interaction by adding a context to the physical world. Here's how retailers, museums, events, smart cities, banks, and offices leverage proximity to grow their businesses and engage their audiences.
We have been doing some work with Beacons (iBeacon’s) at the moment and there where many preconceptions we had to overcome before getting to grips with the technology. We have compiled this presentation to help explain the landscape and explore some possibilities.

Creating and selling mobile apps is almost an industry unto itself today. There are thousands that consumers are willing to pay a dollar or two to get on their phones, and many others that they'll happily add to their phones for free. This session will take a quick look at the universe of apps that apply to selling merchandise, tickets or travel accommodations and project their development over the next few years. Then it will dive deep into examples of mobile apps that are available now. Our expert—and opinionated—speakers will demonstrate apps and explain why each one hits or misses. The app industry is young enough that standards are yet to develop, so be prepared for lively debate among our presenters as they share opinions about what they like and don't like.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

2. Anywhere from 60M to
300M Beacons deployed
worldwide by 2018.
Currently, 1-2M, excluding
Apple iOS devices.
We are here
3.
4. Pure Play Hardware Companies with standalone Beacons
Marketing Automation Companies using Beacons for indoor, place-based signals
Place / Location Analytics companies using Beacons for indoor & place-based signals
Vertical Solution Provider using Beacons for features (Events, Museums, Enterprise, Real Estate)
Shopper Marketing Platforms using Beacons to trigger engagement, understand context
General Purpose Proximity Platforms offering PaaS to everyone else
Indoor Location Providers using Beacons as part of the Indoor Location arsenal
Hardware Companies with embedded Beacons (Lights, Sockets, Wearables)
Lots of different players in the Beacosystem
Ad Networks / DSPs linking to Beacon networks for re-targeting, offline to online (O2O)
5. And of course, two companies
that matter more than most in
this ecosystem :-)
7. Not only about these…
Bluetooth Low Energy Device
Battery powered, mains powered, solar powered, passive powered
Transmits a message in an agreed way
All iOS and all new Android devices can “see” this message
(Standalone Beacons)
Range: 10M / 30 feet on average
8. Embedded use of Beacons will likely drive the real long term volume in deployments
But very much also about these…
Lights Sockets Wearables Locks
9. Embedded Volume beacon shipments match standalone volume by end 2015
Successful deployments outside retail: events, gigs, conferences, real estate, tourism
Enterprise use cases start to emerge: meeting rooms, staff location, building security
Privacy policy becomes a key differentiator for suppliers
Do not track (DNT) equivalent policies become formalised for Beacon use cases
More M&A in the Beacosystem
More options emerge for App-free experiences (Retailers crying out for browser solution)
Many poor consumer experiences launched - mostly in retail context (pestering, spam)
Some expectations for 2015
10. Right now : Investment, Structuring,
Consolidation / Acquisition
29. In no particular order…
Issues and hurdles
Android Consistency vs iOS
Over Hype Bring on the trough!
Bad Behaviour Just because you can - doesn’t mean you should!
Backlash Privacy, Nordstrom, NSA, “black” phones…
Scaling Management at scale, refresh, better APIs,…

Some considerations
Proximity Location
Nearness Accurate Position
Easy Setup Complex
All Devices Some / future
No infrastructure Installation req’d
Background alerts App front / b/ground
“App free” App Required
Before deploying - some tradeoffs to consider…
