Future Trends Volume 9: The Internet of Things

The Internet of Things brings together people, process, data and things. Whether it becomes the norm with all-embracing consumer acceptance is another matter. Data is always a worry, raising issues such as privacy and security - real-time spying comes to mind. Plus, do consumers really want their refrigerator automatically to send orders for their milk? But they may want their cars to tell them that the exhaust is just about to fall off. So the jury is out on the future path in respect of consumers whereas the technology, computing power, connectivity, network capacity and the number and types of smart devices are all expected to increase. On the bold assumption that opt-out really will be an option, the success of many of the applications of the Internet of Things will be highly dependent on consumer preferences.
