With the ice caps melting and the Gulf Stream going off course, who can save us from an environmental catastrophe? Will it be birds? Will it be planes? Will it be superman? No! It’s submarine robots
You’re probably aware that two-thirds of the world is covered in sea water and this proportion is likely to get even larger, according to some climate experts.
Whether you are a skeptic or not, the one thing we can all agree on is that we need more information. There is where...
There’s no place like home, a statement that couldn’t be more true. The fact is, when we’re not working or running errands outside, we’re cosying up in our houses. You’ll probably agree that your home is the place where you’re most comfortable, surrounded by your family and everyday commodities.
You’ve no doubt got plenty of cool gadgets and appliances around your house, such as washing machines and televisions. This has been the situation for decades, and these essentials add convenience to our lives. But through the...
The technology industry is diverse and full of amazing innovations changing the way we live and work. But there’s always one area that stands out and keeps garnering massive interest, whether it be in the form of talk or actual investment.
Without a doubt, the Internet of Things is one, and it’s turned into a revolution. We’re already using technology such as wearables, smart meters and connected cars in the millions. And uptake will only continue to grow as the years go on.
According to Gartner, there’ll...
Cisco has pegged the Internet of Everything for soon impacting our lives ten times more than the Internet itself. Yet so many companies in the more commonly called Internet of Things (IoT) are struggling for survival. Why? Maybe, like the Google Glass, it was just too soon. Or like another seemingly failed Google acquisition, Revolv home automation hub, maybe the bigger guys are gobbling up the competition (and their employees) before the demand even arrises. Or maybe it’s just that, according to my own keyword...
It’s almost impossible to think of a world without connected devices. In the same way that the time before the mass availability of mobile phones feels like the dark ages, the idea of living ‘off grid’ without being online for a day is enough to cause unease, even dread. The perennial nature of the Internet of Things has quickly seared itself into our daily lives, and the speed of adoption shows no sign of abating.
According to Gartner there will be 6.4 billion connected ‘things’ in...
Uncommunicative data refuses to come out of its silo – and boy can it be difficult.
As we all know, there are hundreds of benevolent IT developers who only want to do one thing – improve the world, one Internet working of Things at a time. Oh to be young and idealistic!
In a way, they are like parents – they want the best and they can see possibilities that the offspring can’t. Tragically the IoT cannot benefit from the wisdom of their experience. In part this...

30 October, 2014: Each Internet generation was believed to be the last, with designs pushed to near perfection. The first and original Internet, a virtually infinite network of computers, was a paradigm changer and went on to define the economies of the late 20th century. However, after that Internet came the Mobile Internet, connecting billions of smart phones and laptops, and yet again redefining entire segments of the economy in the first decade of the...

25 March 2014: The notion of “Internet of Things” or “Connected Devices” is not new. In 1991, the late Mark Weiser of XEROX PARC, considered the father of ubiquitous computing, dreamed of an always on, always connected world in which humans and computers are seamlessly united. In 2002, my friend and coauthor Dr. Yasuhisa Nakamura, then CTO of NTT DoCoMo wrote in our book that his vision of mobile broadband is when wireless infrastructure becomes indistinguishable from...

The Internet of Things turns the physical world into the new media channel. Even something as seemingly data-driven as traffic patterns, the weather or my pulse rate when I jog are the source of stories: “traffic was a disaster today”, “I hit a wall today on my run”, or “boy it’s cold/hot/humid out”.
We think of IoT and M2M as primarily data-driven. But even data is shaped by the stories we tell about it: how we socialize...
The aim of the hackathon was to demonstrate OnLife networks, the ease with which independent developers understand the concepts and technologies behind this Clogal Innovation Unit initiative, and the impact it can have with its edge computing component. It was a hands-on session where the teams completed two facilitated challenges and followed this up by creating a prototype of their own service idea, deployable at a Telco/ISP network Edge in less than 1 day.
The first exercise consisted of accessing the OnLife Networks Edge private...
