During 2008, the number of
things connected to the Internet
exceeded the number of people
on earth.
By 2020 there will be 50 billion.

New design experiences
The vision is no longer having to say “here’s what I’m doing and here’s why I’m doing it, now help
me”.

Becoming part of everyday life
Products have to be “about” something: flexible platforms like NinjaBlocks and Twine are
amazing for developers but most people need a clear sense of purpose and need
Data must be truly meaningful, compelling and fairly complete: fitness trackers are great
for runners and walkers, but what about cyclists and skaters?
Information should come from multiple sources: my Withings scale and associated data
is helpful, but I’m still the one making blind guesses regarding what’s changed
Products must be easy to set up and install, giving us feedback in a human language:
with most new wireless products, we are still a long way from plug and play
Vigilance and privacy must be balanced: keeping a constant eye on your home is
valuable, but design should provide feedback regarding what is being watched, when
Power requirements are always challenging: dealing with cords and batteries detracts
from the experience.

I work for a product innovation firm called Smart Design
Specifically, I run an internal initiative called the Smart Interaction lab. We’re focused on future-thinking experiments that link the physical and the digital
Many of you may have heard this statistic. So for designers it means there will be an endless parade of new experiences to define.
It’s something we’ve envisioned as designers for quite some time, but only now is there is a “perfect storm” of factors - robotics, sophisticated sensing, embedded displays, object tagging, and wireless communication - all becoming more and more affordable so that we will soon see them in our everyday objects.
It’s about a close collaboration with our technology to having it understand our world through our eye, and not have us telling our technology what we are doing as sort of a running narrative. [9:40] Up until now we had to say “here’s what I’m doing and here’s why I’m doing it, now help me.”[9:48] We are getting much more to this stage of the technology being able to observe what we are doing and what we’re doing it with and be able to help us. These digital shadow that we have can become very powerful and relevant digital shadows that have a lot of inference and then we are automatically interacting with the digital shadows when we are interacting with the things.
There are many industries that will hold opportunity in this area.
And as designers, we have many visions of what the future with an Internet of things could be.sports equipment that tracks your stats, connects to social networksmedication bottles that ping your doctorplants that tweet when they need wateringappliances that coordinate efforts to save energydinner tables that tell you stories about your wine
A sixth sense
I know there are a lot of creative people in the audience, and this Internet of Things is going to open up a whole range of opportunities for new devices, services and businesses, so I just wanted to highlight a few guidelines that have helped me in thinking about these opportunities.
