Track abstract

Internet of Things is more than controlling your home. There are many, many gadgets out there that you may control with your smart phone or from a tablet. Toys, cars, boats, anything…and drones form their own little corner of all these connected worlds. What used to be science fiction have become customer appliances. Robotics was once either from a distant future or parts of advanced assembly lines; this has changed too. We are currently experiencing the happy dot-com days over again; but what was data- and web page driven is now most often centered around a smart phone where devices and sensors are delivering the data. And we have only just scratched the surface when it comes to apply deep learning to all this.

In this track we will show you how the internet of things has progressed from both a conceptual as a practical standpoint. Our speakers will share invaluable learnings that they developed while creating connected products. These insights range from product design and hardware challenges till software architecture and data analysis. The remainder of the day will focus on in-depth sessions that will get you up and running to create your own smart and connected device.
