My expectation is I’ll continue to leave my eggs in the fridge until I’m ready to eat. Chipmakers like Intel, Freescale and Qualcomm are already excited about the potential for sensors, chips that assess and respond to the physical environment. It’s sensible to assume consumer-facing companies like Google, Apple and Microsoft will continue to face the consumer and enterprise-facing companies like IBM and Siemens will offer products and services to business, said LeHong. Some will extend services, like streaming media, into new territories. Some will control devices, for instance, remotely unlock cars or shut vales. Some will optimize products to leverage the capabilities of the connected Internet for example, General Electric has retrofitted gas turbines with sensors to “tweak nobs and save fuel.” Some will find ways to charge consumers on a per use basis. Four types of companies will play in the sector, said Hung LeHong, VP and Gartner fellow.
Gartner has developed a framework for expectations in the IoT age. For instance, when a consumer’s dish washer is overflowing, he probably doesn’t want notifications from his toaster. Then a technology that prioritizes applications will need to be developed, Horne postulated. Over time, a technology that unites them will emerge. Right now, connected devices run over ZigBee, Z-Wave, BlueTooth, RFID and MiWi, none of which communicate with the other. Companies have yet to standardize on a network protocol, noted Martin Horne, CEO of LiveQoS, which sells network monitoring products. The technology surrounding IoT is as nebulous as the law. Nobody knows to what degree privacy and safety laws will be local or federal. How is Google going to use the data when it has access to how often you run a load of laundry?” Nobody knows how health care information will be mishandled. Then there’s the question of who owns data. Brian Proffitts Phone Number and Email Last Update. Previously, Brian was a Project Manager a t Rggroup Global. “Laws that affect companies and consumers will evolve over the next few years. Brian Proffitt is a Senior Architect & Manager, Design at Anser Advisory based in Santa Ana, California. Who will bear responsibility for IoT-related criminal activity remains unknown, noted Pavon. Pavon noted too that the first incident of a household appliance, a refrigerator, sending spam occurred two weeks ago. Thieves are already breaking into cars by using hand-held devices. Brians experience with community management includes knowledge of community onboarding, community health, and business alignment. Pavon is a proponent of IoT when balanced with privacy and security risks, he said, but warned that criminal activity will increase 10-fold when alarm systems are hacked when stalkers can tell you’re in or out of the house because of the dish washer. Brian Proffitt is a Manager within Red Hats Open Source Program Office, focusing on content generation, community metrics, and special projects.
