IoT Today: Wearables
● Happening today
● Few infrastructure dependencies
● Fueled by low cost, low power, specialized microprocessors
IoT Today: Commercial & Industrial
Access Control Lighting HVAC Energy Sub-Metering
Legacy (Non-IP)G4
Internet ProtocolNETWORK PROTOCOLS
Ethernet
● High growth market for mobile, web and big data applications
● Includes large install based of non-IP legacy equipment
● Large market today with significant growth projections
IoT Today: Home Automation
● NEST leads the way● Connects to Internet via WiFi
● Acquired by Google for $3.2B
● Cluttered Home Automation Market● Too many Non-Internet protocols
● No single protocol dominates
● Presents a barrier to the IoT Home
Emerging IoT Standards
● Addresses the home automation protocol problem
● Two battling standards: AllJoyn & OiC● Qualcomm vs Intel
● Will impact widespread adoption
● Creates a VHS vs Betamax problem for consumer market
The IoT enabled Smart Home is a ways off!
Emerging IoT Markets: Smart Cities
● Expansion of Smart Grid initiatives ● Smart grid networks failed to deliver on promise● Network constrained to reading smart meters once a month
● Smart Cities establish a utility Internet network● Connecting multiple systems● Distributed energy● Micro Grid● Water Management● Traffic controls● Lighting ● Security Systems
Presents highly visible opportunities for innovation
Industry Challenges Security, Security, Security
Controlling devices remotely via the Internet
Permissions and Access IoT Standards
Battling consumer standards will delay IoT Smart Homes Legacy equipment and standards
Home automation protocols must be replaced by Ethernet/WiFi
Confusion Most folks aren't even aware that the IoT train has left the
station
IoT In Austin IoT landscape in Austin
– There is a small and growing number of IoT startups
– Few if any local IoT investors
Raising IoT awareness in Austin Creating IoT-Austin consortium
Coordination of IoT activities in accelerator and incubation labs
Investor and community education
Connecting Austin startups to Silicon Valley community
Summary IoT is real and happening
– Wearables will be driven by semiconductor innovations
– Commercial & industrial market is thriving
IoT Home will be dominated by proprietary solutions
– NEST and others will develop their own ecosystems
– IoT standards adoption will take several years to solidify
Billions is being invested in IoT
– $1.6B in 2014, $1B in 2013
– Primarily from Silicon Valley investors
– Market is on a multi-trillion dollar trajectory
