Slow Healthcare Costs by Digitizing Healthcare
The United States spends around 17-18% of its GDP on healthcare every year.
When you put this into dollar numbers, it is a mind-boggling $2.9 trillion.
Unfortunately, that spending will grow at a faster rate now due to baby
boomers becoming an aging population, and they are the largest demographic in
the U.S. (Baby boomers are about 76 million, which accounts for 25% of the
population of the U.S.). The healthcare related spending is expected to grow
at a faster pace than the under 5% annual rate it grew over the last decade.
Unless the U.S. gets this spiraling healthcare spending under control, in a
few short years we will be spending almost 25% of our entire GDP in
healthcare trying to fix people’s failing health, instead of spending it
somewhere else where it is desperately needed. Obviously, we can’t stop the
aging p... (more)

The session explored how IoT has improved their economic performance, had
major impacts on business models and resulted in impressive ROIs. The
companies covered span manufacturing and services firms. He also explored
servicification, how manufacturing firms shift from selling a product to
offering it as a service and discussed methods you can employ to estimate how
investing in IoT will affect your firm.

It takes years – sometimes a lifetime – to perfect certain skills in
life: hitting a jump shot off the dribble, nailing that double high C on the
trumpet, parallel parking a Ford Expedition. Malcolm Gladwell wrote a book,
“Outliers,” discussing the amount of work – 10,000 hours – required
to perfect a skill (while the exactness of 10,000 hours has come under
debate, it is still a useful point that people need to invest considerable
time and effort to master a skill). But once we get comfortable with
something that we feel that we have mastered, we become reluctant to change.
We are reluctant to unlearn what we’ve taken so long to master.
Changing your point of release on a jump shot or your embouchure for playing
lead trumpet is dang hard! Why? Because it is harder to unlearn that it is to
learn. It is harder to un-wire all those synoptic nerve endings and deep

Real-Time Communication Testing Evolution with WebRTC
It is of utmost importance for the future success of WebRTC to ensure that
interoperability is operational between web browsers and any WebRTC-compliant
client. To be guaranteed as operational and effective, interoperability must

between different web browsers running on different devices and operating
systems.

@ThingsExpo Stories By Liz McMillan  Recently, WebRTC has a lot of eyes from market. The use cases of WebRTC are expanding - video chat, online education, online health care etc. Not only for human-to-human communication, but also IoT use cases such as machine to human use cases can be seen recently. One of the typical use-case is remote camera monitoring. With WebRTC, people can have interoperability and flexibility for deploying monitoring service.
However, the benefit of WebRTC for IoT is not only its convenience and interopera...

We have an excess of wearables – activity trackers, smartwatches, smart glasses and sneakers, and more that track seemingly endless datapoints. However, most consumers have no idea what “IoT” means.
