"Internet of things (IOT)", referring to internet network of everyday objects, is hot, especially in China. Internet unlocks the potential of billions of computers, and IOT will unlock the power hidden among trillions of objects. In 2010, the total IOT revenue in China is $30 Billion. It is expected to grow up to $100 Billion in 2015.
IOT is more than RFID, sensors and cloud computing. What would be the enabling technologies there? What opportunities can you grab? We are fortunate to have Sohail Khan, CEO of SiGe Semiconductor (RF silicon- germanium leader, M2M and smart energy RF front end provider and one of the fastest growing semiconductor companies based in North America), and Robert LeFort, CEO of Ember Corporation (Wireless mesh networking technology leader, Zigbee SOC provider, an initiator of Zigbee Standard) to talk about what is going on and what trend they see. Please come to share your thoughts and spark new ideas in our discussion.
