"Sensing" Intelligence - Internet
of Things - Far Bigger Than You
Even Know!
When we talk about all things internet and how our world is hyper digitally connected, it's about gathering data and leveraging it. It's not just about the connection of machines to machines, but the sensors within each machine (phone, computer tablet, and even in our brick and mortar world) that's reading and analyzing constantly what the end user is inputingand wants to be 'served' up.
When we talk about all things internet and how our world is hyper digitally connected, it's about gathering data and leveraging it. It's not just about the connection of machines to machines, but the sensors within each machine (phone, computer tablet, and even in our brick and mortar world) that's reading and analyzing constantly what the end user is inputingand wants to be 'served' up.
Cloud based applications house the data for whatever anyone wants to access or engage with, on the go. Stored and retrievable at anytime from anywhere and activated by intelligent sensors within them.
Let's look at sensors and how they play a role in our daily life now. Intuitively looking and measuring all data to output the most accurate suggested decision and or data to be reviewed.
Let’s look at one example. In 2007, a bridge collapsed in Minnesota, killing many people. The steel plates were inadequate to handle the bridge’s load.With todays connected, digital 'sensing' world, builders use smart cement: cement equipped with sensors to monitor stresses, cracks. This is cement alerting that problems need fixed before it actually happens. These technological advancements aren’t limited to just a bridge’s structure.
In some areas of the world, if there’s ice on the bridge, the same sensors in the concrete will detect it and communicate the information via the wireless internet to your car (if your car is equipped with wireless internet, which most new cars now come standard with internet connectivity). Once your car knows there’s a hazard ahead, it will instruct the driver to slow down, and if the driver doesn’t, the car will slow down for them!
Society may not be seeing the bigger impact of all things connected and all things internet. Sensors now being implanted (no longer just in our own personal digital devices) that read data and conditions and communicate and/or alert based on these sensors within our brick and mortar world too - will lead to more advancement, opportunity and another super segment of economy.
This is a huge and fundamental shift. "Things" become intelligent, "thinking", sensing parts of our world. This is a major engine for creating new products and new services.
