11. IoT: not what we expected
MAKERCON 2014 NYC @carladiana_
12. We were expecting tags
Original IoT vision was a database of tagged items that could be tracked

13. And instead we got embedded computers
What we didn’t anticipate is the many devices we would have with computing power

18. Where do we find meaning?
MAKERCON 2014 NYC @carladiana_
19. Hierarchy of meaning
wisdom
knowledge
information
data
Is this a good time for inspiration? Distraction? Heartbreak?
What will happen to my evening if I walk here?
“You are 20 minutes from home.
You are hosting a dinner party in 2 hours”

28. 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
Tracking steps is great for runners and walkers, but what about cyclists and skaters?
!
Information should come from multiple sources
My Withings scale by itself is helpful, but not enough. It becomes more meaningful when paired with
nutrition awareness, fitness tracking, and even calendar events.
!
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 extremely challenging
Dealing with cords and batteries detracts from the experience. (And above all, the planet!)
