Applied IoT

This opening talk of the Applied IoT track will give a good overview of the market trends and it will give you an idea of what to expect from the day.

First is leading a consortium of industry, academic and local authority partners to deliver innovative new public transport solutions in Oxfordshire.

Centred on the Milton Park technology park near Didcot, the MultiCAV project provides a new Mobility as a Service platform for comprehensive journey planning, drawing together existing walking, cycling, bus, rail and car travel data in real time.

However this project is different – as well as adding electric cycle hire to the mix, it is bringing both demand responsive and fixed route autonomous pubic transport services in 2020-21 – the first integration of these into a mainstream public transport system.

How will the future of decentralised of energy look and who will be leading this move?

There are numerous barriers for energy companies to integrate IoT technology into it’s systems, examples of this include use of highly granular data, data protection and security, connection standards and products sold. In an industry that’s trying to develop and implement new technology, tensions from established operators are paramount, as new business models turn in favour of innovative technology and are data heavy. What is the solution to this divide and can IoT platforms help operators adopt and implement the new technology into their legacy equipment?

• From connected cars to constrained micro-controllers; device management is a key part of the IoT Ecosystem. How do we ensure that these devices function correctly & securely when deployed?
• How to utilise the data gathered to understand your consumers
• The ways in which 5G  is influencing the efficiency and usability of consumer IoT, from wearable tech and shopping, to smart home applications
• Is trusting the technology the biggest barrier in the slow progression into a connected environment?
• How will consumer IoT evolve in the next 5 years?

Learn via use cases how recent innovations in IoT and wireless 4G connectivity have transformed applications and services in the enterprise and public sectors.  Use cases will include vehicles, retail stores, kiosks, digital signage and even living plant walls.

The Connecting Europe Facility’s (CEF) mission is to support projects to use basic components, based on standards, and best practice that will ensure systems can communicate with each other. The CEF supports EU member states with free training, sample software, testing environments, support as well as grant funding.
