Internet of Things: 140 pages of R&D details - NEW REPORT

New Report: Internet of Things: How the Vision is being Researched, Developed & Productized

The vision of the “Internet of Things,” in which Internet connectivity is extended to huge numbers of “things” in the real world, promises to transform our ability to process information about the real world and interact with real-world objects electronically. This dream has captured the world’s attention, with new developments and media articles daily.

But what is really being researched and developed? Are the implementations that are soon to reach market truly achieving the vision? What major companies are working on it?  Who is bringing it to market? What exactly is each company researching?

In this new 135-page report, Grizzly Analytics analyzes and reports the research in progress at major technology companies, including Google, Microsoft, Apple, Nokia, ZTE, Qualcomm, Intel, Cisco, General Electric, IBM and others. The report additionally profiles over twenty start-up companies bringing Internet of Things products and solutions to market, along with several industry consortia and alliances.


Only Grizzly Analytics reports give you the hard facts about R&D in progress. Which major companies are researching how to route queries from smartphones to sensor networks, or how to control home appliances from mobile devices? Which are exploring unique wireless technologies?  Which are working on hubs to connect to every-day objects, and which are building on existing wireless connections? Which are researching adding connectivity to keychains or bicycles, and which are working on mobile healthcare or personal safety?  This report gives you the concrete R&D details.

Grizzly Analytics analysis finds the following key attributes of research in progress:

  1. What is being connected: sensors, every-day objects, or appliances?
  2. Are the “things” interactive, or do they deliver ambient intelligence via the network?
  3. Do the “things” connect directly or via a gateway?
  4. How is data from sensors & devices secured and kept private?
  5. What analysis can be done on collected data?
  6. What applications of the Internet of Things will actually be valuable to users?

This 135 page report is a must-read for:

Ø      researchers to know the approaches that others are working on
Ø      corporate planning groups to know what their competition is doing
Ø      start-up companies to know which major companies to pitch to
Ø      business development groups to know which start-up companies will fit their needs
Ø      investors to know which companies will lead this new area
Ø      venture capitalists to know which start-ups fill niches in this area
Ø      cellular operators to know where their next-generation capabilities will come from
Ø      municipal professionals and consultants looking at city-wide sensor systems
Ø      researchers in related areas, including exercise & health accessories and car systems

and anyone else who needs to track this exciting new technology.

Sensor-fusion indoor location system in over 30 malls in Singapore

SingTel just deployed indoor mapping and navigation from Swedish start-up  SenionLab  in over 30 shopping malls in Singapore, with 20 more in planning, in the biggest single deployment we've seen yet of customized indoor location technology. The most significant aspect of this deployment is that this is one of the first commercial deployments of indoor location technology that uses a new technology approach called "sensor fusion," which uses sensors in smartphones (gyroscope, compass, accelerometer, ...) to track location by sensing the phone's movements. Most indoor location systems determine location by measuring the signals of nearby Wi-Fi hotspots or cellular antennas, but this risks looking choppy as the phone waits for the radio signals to change to detect the next place it is. Sensing motion using phone sensors makes the system work more smoothly, regardless of radio signal details.  (The SenionLab solution does use Wi-Fi signals as well, to compe...

See great indoor location tech from the 2017 testbed

The videos from the Indoor Location Testbed at GeoIoT World 2017 are now released! Here is your chance to see how these solutions performed in our real-world evaluation, in the videos below. The testbed evaluated each solution by walking around a real-world venue, the GeoIoT World 2017 conference, measuring performance at 10 pre-selected points. Click here for the testbed report, which analyzes each solution's performance in a wide variety of metrics, including real-time accuracy, accuracy stabilization, consistency, latency, floor change, first fix, setup time & more. Let's start with BlooLoc's tag-based solution, which achieved accuracy under 2m in real-time and under 1.5m after stabilization: Then let's look at the infrastructure-free solution from GipsTech , which achieved accuracy under 2m without using any beacons or radio signals: Next is GipsTech's solution with BLE added: Next is BlooLoc's phone-based solution: Fin...

Quuppa - The newest and oldest in indoor location positioning

Word is starting to get out about Quuppa , a company formed in September 2012 that's developing very high accuracy indoor positioning technology (HAIP).  To Quuppa, "high accuracy" means roughly 20cm.  Yes, 20cm. 8 inches. That's an order of magnitude better than the 4-5m accuracy that other start-ups are bringing to market, and two orders of magnitude better than the 15-20m accuracy that mass-market approaches like Google's are delivering. Update March 2015: See here for more up-to-date information on Quuppa. As of now this high level of accuracy is available only for tracking dedicated tags.  It won't be available for cellphones until some new Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) features become standard. (On cellphones they're working on other good, but not quite as accurate, positioning.)  But check out their demonstration - in this game of basketball, the players have tags on their shoes, and the ball has a tag inside. Pretty amazing for a company fou...
