The document discusses future opportunities and trends for sensors, including moving from MEMS sensors to combining MEMS and other sensors; from physical sensing to soft sensing that can infer information; and from human-machine interactions to machine-to-machine communication. It also discusses shifting from collecting all big data to only reasonable data needed, and making the transition from open data to secure data and systems. The overall trends focus on collecting and analyzing more diverse data to derive higher-level insights.
