Digging deeper, we can see what functions in the business they’ve tackled first.
IoT is the next development of how the Internet is applied to the world. TAM for M2M/IoT is estimated at $19 trillion.

Smartphones, laptops, PCs and in-store visits have made path-to-purchase journeys very complex and confusing for online retailers to recognize and support. Consumers can search and discover products and services using a smartphone on their way to work. In the evening they can pull out a tablet and engage in immersive research while laying in bed. They may decide to review some more on their desktop at work, then at lunch time stop at a brick and mortar store to look at the product in more detail. That evening, they purchase the product online using a laptop. How is a retailer or e-tailer ...
Three major factors are converging to make smart cities a reality: the exponential advances in information and communications technologies (ICT), rapidly expanding applications of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the fast-paced advancements in machines that are already going beyond their basic functionalities. Technology can contribute in many ways to the development of smart infrastructure. However, it’s the interactions between people and the machines that are integral to the social, cultural and economic life of these smart cities. 
It’s that time of year when we gift and re-gift, just like this text from last year. And the perfect opportunity to re-post, re-purpose and re-use all my 2015 blog entries. If you missed any of the 89 attempts including 59 videos, here they are wrapped in one simple entry. I read somewhere that lists in blogs are good. I broke it out by month to see what was happening at the time and let’s be honest, pure self-promotion.
Over the past couple of years IoT has become the most hyped word around the world, and rightly so because we all know IoT is here to stay.
So what is IoT?
IoT stands for the Internet of Things. It refers to the devices that are connected through the internet. The basic concept is connecting any device with an on and off switch to the Internet, devices such as cell phones, wearable devices, coffee machines, connected homes even your refrigerator and all those things you can think of.
We have collected a list of factors that will demonstrate how rapidly this sector is growing, and some mind-b...
Ah, yes, the holiday season. A surprising dearth of snow, crass commercialism, yet another skirmish in the perennial ‘war on Christmas.’ And sure enough, the pinnacle of punditry: tech predictions for the New Year.
At Intellyx, however, we’re adding a twist: in keeping with our long-standing tradition at ZapThink, we’ll score our results from the previous year, before gazing into the crystal ball once again.
And since this is our second annual installment of our Digital Prognostications, it’s finally time to see how we did.
So far, our series of IIoT Bold Predictions for 2016 has focused on the concepts of IIoT security and government’s regulatory role in the development of IoT and IIoT devices. Today, we’re changing gears a bit, with a prediction from Scott Allen, FreeWave’s CMO, which focuses on the implementation of IIoT technology into big data practices to create real-time, data-driven intelligence.
