The Internet of Things is one of the most talked about trends in the tech industry today. It’s massive size and scope is estimated by some to grow to over 50 billion connected devices by 2020, (although others have that number closer to around 30.7 billion devices), which in real-world economic terms is equivalent to $14.4 trillion in potential business opportunities. It’s so big that it seems almost too overwhelming to fully contemplate.

If we take a look into the future, one thing is certain: cities become much smarter day after day. They are using information and communications technologies to enhance daily city life. There is an overwhelming trend toward introducing new smart services and opening up city data to improve quality of life for citizens – not to mention the many new business opportunities associated with this change. Safran Identity & Security is at the heart of this new era.

More than 50% of manufacturing companies have initiated IoT projects in order to achieve the benefits of monitored automation. Large investments in Smart Grid meters for gas and electricity has been carried out the past years and also surveillance and monitoring of the production equipment to predict maintenance is a very large driver for IoT investments in this Industry.

The IoT is revolutionizing industry. Equipment manufacturers can now offer entirely new services to their customers, leading to more efficient operations. Using operating data from equipment to understand when it will fail, reducing downtime. Precisely tracking equipment use means charging based on exact usage.

Two barriers currently exist to effective and powerful smart city solutions. First, many current smart city ICT deployments are based on custom systems that are not interoperable, portable across cities, extensible, or cost-effective. Second, a number of architectural design efforts are currently underway (e.g. ISO/IEC JTC1, IEC, IEEE, ITU and consortia) but have not yet converged, creating uncertainty among stakeholders. There is a lack of consensus on both a common language/taxonomy and smart city architectural principles.

The proliferation of connected technologies across multiple industries is undeniable. Research firm Gartner put the figure of connected things in use at 8.4 billion in 2017, up 31% from the year before. That will reach 20.4 billion devices by 2020, Gartner predicted. Within these figures, it’s estimated that consumer applications represents 63% of total IoT applications in 2017. Impressive, sure, but worth noting is that this means business applications represent a huge part of this growing opportunity, as much as 37% last year.
