The phone as a communications center
• Since you wake up until you go to bed, near you as your main assistant
• No more a simple phone for making calls and sending messages
• Nowadays, it can do almost as the same functions for you as a computer
• The improvements in the phone industry are getting better and better
Interact and share between multiple devices
• Your phone is no longer an individual… it is meant to be connected across the Internet
• Lots of data can be manipulated and used among other devices for reasons like productivity
• Get in touch with your contacts in a new variety of ways, as well as increase them
• Tired of looking at the phone screen? Just continue your task on the PC or tablet
Current wearables and autonomous cars
• Recently, the tech industry has been exploring new ways of communicate information to the users and interact with it
• Why not using a simple watch and transform it into a redesign concept? The result is a completely new range of products
• The current focus lies on replacing typical objects with updated functionalities in line with the digital era
• But this is getting even more huge, with the creation and development of operating systems made to be installed in vehicles (e.g. Android Auto or Apple’s CarPlay)
• The long-term objective seems clear: make an autonomous car with tasks automation and smart capabilities
Which might be the next thing… ?
Probably the next thing is not a physical new thing… just a new interpretation
IoT (a.k.a. Internet of Things)
• Instead of building another device, let’s reinterpret its function
• The Internet of Things comes for easily interacting with typical objects at our houses
• Because of this it will be possible to bring at home pure smart and technologic features in the coming years
IoT (a.k.a. Internet of Things)
• This concept results in a new smart thing without actually inventing a new one
• Utilize bulbs for phone notifications
• Synchronize your shopping list from the fridge into your watch
• Early detection of food sticking through sensors
• As you can see, a huge variety of situations could be managed
The smart city as a long-term consequence
• The inclusion of new ways for communicating typical objects with the most recent devices available in the market, opens a future of smart buildings
• A wide range of people is starting to produce software that reproduce new functions because of several mini-chips currently on sale
• We will see how the main cities of the world begin showing us new infrastructures connected via Internet in the coming years
