- 1. The Internet ofThings What it is, where it’s headed and its applications Justin Grammens IoT Educator / Entrepreneur / Leader
- 2. What We WillCover • About Me • What is the Internet of Things? • Hype Cycle and Current Trends of the IoT Today • Why Care? • Industry Segments • Local Success Stories & Community • Closing Thoughts
- 3. About Me • Entrepreneurand co-founder of Recursive Awesome & Code42 • Thought leader in emerging technology • Professor at the University of St. Thomas teaching on IoT • Mobile Twin Cities and Mobile March Conferences • Co-founder of IoTFuse : Non-Profit to promote IoT • Arduino.MN, IoTHackDay and IoTFuse Conference • IoTWeeklyNews - Newsletter covering IoT Trends
- 4. What is theIoT? • Formal: The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data. • Practical: Anything can be connected and communicate in an intelligent fashion. In other words, with the Internet of Things, the physical world is becoming one big information system.

- 12. Why Care? Investors aretaking notice in the IoT
- 13. Why Care? The costto compete is dropping every day
- 14. Why Care? • Google- Purchased Nest for $3.2 billion • Intel - $529 million revenue from IoT Division vs. only $51 million from mobile unit. • Apple - Homekit / HealthKit opportunities • Samsung - Purchased SmartThings for $200 million • IBM - Spending $3 Billion to build an IoT Division
- 15. Why Care? • Openhardware is having same effect as open source software • Arduino • Low Cost • Low Power • Well Supported • Excellent for LEAN prototyping
- 16. Why Care? • Majortechnology convergence occurring • Bigger than the explosion of mobile in 2007 • Cheap hardware and low cost of networks • Explosion of 3D printing for low volume runs • Low cost cloud infrastructure • Consumers appetite to track things • Standards starting to emerge - BLE, NFC, Zigbee • Ubiquity of mobile devices for data access

IoT Community Mission: This non-profit501(c)(3) organization, based in Minneapolis, helps align the world toward a vision of where the Internet of Things is today, where it is headed in the future, and how technology can improve the physical world in which we live. We accomplish this through a yearly conference, hackathons and meetups dedicated to enabling IoT startups and innovation.
- 32. Final Thoughts • Itmight take time before people are comfortable and embrace the IoT. • Driverless elevator invented in 1900. The public hated it and some people died. • Added elevator drivers until a strike in NYC in 1945. • Industry convinced public that driverless was safe, but it took more than 50 years. • Hopeful that IoT is much faster. But it has been 15 years!
- 33. Final Thoughts • Industrymust focus on key areas to increase adoption • Security • Data Silos • Interoperability • Create Applications Where It Make Sense • When you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail
- 34. Final Thoughts • Web1.0 - Connecting People to the Internet ( Browser ) • Web 2.0 - Connecting People to People ( Social and Mobile ) • Web 3.0 - Connecting Objects to People and Objects to each other ( IoT )
