SENSORS GIVE US SUPERPOWERS

Grocery Shopping App that shifts items priorities based on where you are in the store

“Shazam for TV Shows” listens to what's playing on TV & syncs up the episode number, title

SHOPPER INTO NOW

KEY TAKEAWY FROM BOTH EXAMPLES?

I DON’T HAVE TO SAY WHERE I AM

SENSORS do the work

AUGMENTED REALITY

To add new layers of understanding and insight

Skinvaders is a game that uses the front-facing camera to turn your face into a game

board.

Where Aliens actually invade your skin

EXAMPLE: SKINVADERS ------------------------------------------------

Word lens is an augmented reality app that uses computer vision and optical character recognition to translate text in real time from one language to another.

It matches up fonts and colors with precision

EXAMPLE: WORDLENS ------------------------------------------------

Layar began as an augmented reality browser, reinvented itself as a product for editorial, and for what they call interactive print.

The idea that any layout is unique, is itself a QR code, that can be read like a design fingerprint.

CUSTOM SENSORS Stuff gets really interesting as engineers create custom sensors for the interfaces. Let devices talk to any arbitrary object.

Hello Plant!

Hello!

ASTHMAPOLIS

System to help asthma patients better control asthma. Help practitioners monitor their patients. Help epidemiologists understand trends and causes of asthma.

SENSORS SEND DATA WITH TIME AND LOCATION OF LAST ATTACK

FARMERS IN SWITZERLAND

PUT SENSORS ON COWS

THAT TEXT THE FARMER WHEN THEY’RE IN HEAT

DISNEY’S BOTANICUS INTERACTIUS

TURNING THE PLANT INTO AN INTERFACE

EXAMPLE: A PILL THAT KNOWS WHEN YOU TAKE IT -  SENSOR IS THE SIZE OF A GRAIN OF SAND, MADE OF THE SAME

STUFF AS VITAMINS -  SENDS YOUR DATA TO DOCTOR VIA THE CLOUD

MIRRORING (ESSENTIALLY MEANS SCREEN SHARING)

THE WHOLE IDEA BEHIND AIRPLAY ------------------------------------------------

MIRROR YOUR SCREEN VIA APPLE TV TO YOUR TELEVISION SET.

TO SHARE PHOTOS, TO SHARE VIDEOS.

THAT BEGINS TO MAKE IT SOCIAL. IT SHARES IT DISPLAY WITH OTHER DEVICES -- AND, ULTIMATELY, WITH OTHER PEOPLE.

YOUR DEVICE BROADCASTS CONTENT TO DUMB DEVICES. IT BECOMES THE SENSOR AND RECEIVER FOR THOSE DUMB DEVICES, LIKE TV.

OTHER DEVICES TALKING TO EACHOTHER

------------------------------------------------

LEARNING TO MAINTAIN OUR SANITY WITH MULTIPLE DEVICES

MAKING INDIVIDUAL DEVICES SMARTER

DEVICES THAT DO THE WORK FOR YOU

1 2 3

-  LIMIT THE NUMBER OF

DEVICES WITH OPERATING SYSTEMS

-  NOT TOASTER DOENSN’T

NEED ITS OWN TWITTER FEED

-  EVERYTHING RUNNING

SEAMLESSLY IN THE BACKGROUND OF YOUR LIFE WITHOUT MUCH AGITATION OR USER CONTROL

-  “REFLEXIVE

INTELLIGENCE” GRABBING THE DATA AND FILLING IT IN FOR YOU, BEFORE YOU ASK

WHAT INNOVATION STAGE? ACCORDING TO BILL BUXTON (A GOOGLE ENGINEER)

That means 10 years for invention and patent 5 years in the hands of early adopters 5 years to become standard technology

ECOSYSTEM MATTERS

-  NOT ENOUGH TO HAVE A SERVICE

-  NOT ENOUGH TO HAVE SOFTWARE

-  NOT ENOUGH

TO HAVE HARDWARE

TO WIN IN THIS CURRENT INNOVATION STAGE, YOU MUST HAVE ALL 3

The Nest thermostat. - PROXIMITY SENSORS TO KNOW WHEN YOU’RE HOME. - HUMIDITY SENSOR. - TEMPERATURE. - WIfi. - INTERNET CONNECTION TO GET THE WEATHER OUTSIDE. - TALKS TO APPS AND WEBSITE. REMOTE CONTROL AND REPORTING.

NIKE Fuelband

WEAR IT ON YOUR WRIST. TRACKS YOUR ACTIVITY THROUGHOUT THE DAY IT TALKS TO YOUR PHONE OR YOUR COMPUTER WHENEVER IT COMES INTO CONTACT. IT PAIRS WHEN IT CAN, COMMUNICATES WHEN IT CAN.

•  Sensors are the superpowers. Don’t do it just because. Don’t force maps into your app just because of GPS. Think about how it will help your product

•  Think social. For once, not FB or Twitter. Interact with other devices. What are the opportunities to share not only content but control. Start thinking about that future of social devices.

•  Your ecosystem. Most of us are not Apple or Amazon or Microsoft or Google. But we can control our own. You are not building an app. You are building a system. Prepare for multidevice future.

•  New inputs. Start planning for the future of speech, gesture, facial recogntion. Is your content ready for this? How do those things work in combination?
