    Go-To-Market Strategies: Capitalizing on IoT Innovation

    Mario Schmuziger
    Business Development Industrial Internet of Things, Swisscom

    The number of things which are “talking” to us and to each other is increasing rapidly. Integrating lifecycle data from multiple things with data from ERP, PLM and CRM systems and including open data from applications like social media, weather and traffic reporting gives us a multidimensional visibility into the location, status and real usage of these things. This real-time visibility gives us the ability to significantly improve the quality and speed in decision making, dynamically allocate resources and automate processes on a large scale. Swisscom is helping customers capitalize on these opportunities with three go-to market strategies: an IoT PaaS solution for device maker and DIY developer community, a set of configurable SME applications and IIoT / Industrie 4.0 enterprise managed services. All of these offerings are enabled by the Swisscom IoT cloud stack which offers rapid application development to create cost-effectively offerings, tailored to the customer needs.

    Battery powered, wireless, intelligent sensor nodes

    CTO, Quicklogic


    "You can’t manage it if you can’t measure it". The promise of IoT is that we can greatly improve nearly every aspect of our lives and our businesses if we can monitor the world around us and use data analytics to let us know when action is and isn’t required. What separates IoT from cloud computing is the ability for the cloud to directly interact with the physical world. Connecting the cloud to the physical world is conceptually simple: sensors & actuators, connected to a compute element with storage, connected to the Internet.

    In many practical situations, power is a significant challenge. Line powered sensors are costly to install, and battery replacement for battery powered sensors drives up TCO (Total Cost of Ownership). Resolution of these issues requires the confluence of three things: very low power sensors, very low power compute elements, and very low power radios. The phone industry has been driving low cost and low power sensors. However a phone has a large battery that is typically charged daily, so the available power budget is roughly 7mW. A sensor node designed to operate for 3 years on 2 AA cells has to achieve a total power budget of less than 0.3mW - a 20x improvement in energy efficiency.

    In this session we will show how it is possible to use the intelligence of the low power EOS sensor processing nodes to achieve multi-year battery life sensor nodes that use Telit’s IoT Platform to report on room occupancy and air quality.


    Nice, use this as a mental model of the adjacent possible for QUIK...room occupancy and air quality.....

    Featured Keynote: Seven Billion People, Fifty Billion Things, Infinite IoT Possibilities

    Dr. Jason Hallstrom, Director
    Institute for Sensing & Embedded Network Systems Engineering, Florida Atlantic University

    The Internet of Things represents a vision of a deeply connected world, where sensing, computation, and communication are seamlessly integrated throughout the world around us. When the things that populate our lives can learn about each other, their environments, and the people who interact with them, incredible -almost magical- possibilities unfold. Today, we stand at the forefront of a paradigm shift that is poised to revolutionize products and markets and have a profound impact on society - from safeguarding our food supply, to managing our cities, to protecting our aging population. Achieving the full potential of a deeply connected world requires partnerships that span industry, academia, and government - the same types of partnerships that laid the foundation for IoT. This talk will survey the past, present, and future of IoT, and the incredible opportunities that lie just around the corner.

    10:10 – 10:40am

    Partner Pavilion & Networking Coffee Break

    Very interesting. Is a co like Telit in a relationship with QUIK already? They seem to be a primary target for EOS.

    For me it is the importnat concept of the "Adjacent Possible" for QUIK. Based on this it was to be expected, and there are many others we will read about.
    It can take QUIK pretty far.

    Anything else that is really good?

    We can run aglos in the MCU as a starter and just see where it goes, if an ALGO goes ubiquitous then we harden it into another engine in a future EOS.

    Canditates for engines already? anything ubiquitous= engine of the future.

    1. Location engine.

    2. NNLE- neural network learning engine.

    no its not a Tier 1 smartphone, but it is validation of the key concept of the adjacent possible and that QUIK is aware of it and moving into it....


    The adjacent possible?

    Here is how S Johnson wrote it in his great book...WHere good ideas come from.

      The adjacent possible is a kind of shadow future, hovering on the edges of the present state of things, a map of all the ways in which the present can reinvent itself. As Steven notes, theadjacent possible “captures both the limits and the creative potential of change and innovation.”Sep 28, 2010.
    QUIK is a part of this adjacent possible- a rich coral reef teeming with ideas, sensors, and the will to put them together in novel ways. WIth each such expansion consider the diversificaion that we are adding to decrease the risk of any one slot, the breakthrough will happen somewhere, in one of the adjacenct rooms.

    The M & A activity cannot stop, and the coins will be good...Sensory Inc, Valencel are 2 that
    are worth some real coins in theire current state- or they IPO down the line.

    room occupancy

    smart buildings, ie don't turn the heat on if there is no one there, change the lighting when you go it etc.

    I am using Sensory INc as a mental model of a next gen wearable design. It will have a new partner and be more than I had considered...........
