Over the past decade, the explosion of broadband Internet, cloud maturity, IPv6 protocols, decreased costs,
and increased network reliability have collectively fueled the drive for new capabilities that once existed only in isolation.
Global technology is now moving towards becoming hyper-connected and intelligent. By designing and engineering software, organizations will be able to
empower traditionally “dumb” objects or things—bridges, water mains, tires, and heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) units—with a mash-up
of embedded sensors that connect and secure existing infrastructure without demolishing it.
Equipping these everyday objects to be IoT-enabled will allow organizations to maximize existing investments, securely transmit and analyze data,
and provide near-realtime decision support experiences that will change how business is done.
IoT technology exists today—it’s not some far-flung idea from the future. Industries are already benefiting from IoT.
Imagine your car transmitting data every second (or faster), talking to vehicles, weather sensors, and traffic lights. Imagine driving without fear—where your car is a constant guardian, not just a vehicle. With IoT, where interconnected devices share critical data, this is all possible. Connected transit infrastructure enables a safer, more efficient driving experience from start to finish, on and off the road. Before you leave for work, your smart phone displays your car’s condition—fuel, tire pressure, and brake pads levels. You’re informed of weather conditions and traffic patterns, and offered alternate routes as your car reads weather sensors and smart infrastructure. On the road, your car knows when the lights will turn, and guides you to adjust speed to hit the greens. On the freeway, your car alerts you that there’s debris in the right lane, 200 yards ahead, and instructs you to safely change lanes. Cars talk to one another, sharing data through secure, dedicated frequencies, while biometric sensors measure your cognitive abilities behind the wheel. Micro-level, time-specific, highly personalized information that helps you navigate safely.
Imagine you’re a commanding Army officer, preparing your unit for a daylong mission into a sensitive, potentially hostile territory. Mission success depends on your situational awareness, but moreover, on your unit’s readiness, safety, and ability to mobilize efficiently. What variables will affect operations today? You approach the line of trucks and Humvees, which are equipped with automatic sensors generating crucial data about your unit’s vehicles—fuel levels, tire pressure, engine health. Your secure smartphone, virtually mapping the vehicle line, informs you that a truck in the rear of the formation has a flat tire and requires an oil change. With the push of a button, your device automatically schedules a visit to the vehicle bay for maintenance and pings a unit private responsible for doing this. Meanwhile, wearable biometric sensors attached to each of your unit’s soldiers show you vital data in real-time—heart rate, blood pressure, insulin levels—and notify you that a private first class has an unusually high body temperature. Your phone recommends an infirmary visit, and automatically pings your unit corporal to investigate. This mission-critical, condition-based monitoring is smart, efficient, personalized, and relevant. And it’s here today, improving mission efficiency and effectiveness. IoT technology makes it feasible, and tomorrow’s possibilities are limitless.
Today, IoT devices and advanced data analytics are revolutionizing how doctors connect with and care for patients—at home, in a hospital room, or through remote virtual encounters. Every day, people are wearing personal devices like wristbands to record activities that inform their insurance policies and care instructions. This data, in turn, can inform insurance companies setting health care costs, and help doctors personalize care instructions. Imagine an emergency room visit, where seconds can save lives. EMT staff use IoT devices to access real-time patient data to deliver immediate care, while patient sensors automatically consent to share that data securely. In hospitals, smart IoT-connected kiosks provide real-time data about a patient’s medical history, as well as show key information about the room’s environment. Doctors no longer need to bring laptops—and the countless contaminants they contain—into hospital rooms to access patient records and make diagnoses. Equipped with smart devices installed in rooms, doctors can visualize patient data that is secured, aggregated, and normalized through advanced analytic algorithms. With the voice command to the kiosk, a doctor can receive real-time vital information, connect with other doctors in the hospital (or wherever they may be), and send blood test orders to labs and prescription orders to pharmacies—all while staying by a patient’s bedside. IoT technology is reducing inefficient paper pushing, improving communications, and ultimately increasing time spent with patients.
