“...we view the mobile Internet, and
related device proliferation, as one of
the biggest opportunities in the history
of the technology industry.
The opportunity to connect the 4+ billion
mobile device users to the Internet is
arguably 40x the opportunity to connect
100 million PCs to the Internet in the
1990s.”

Nearly 700 million new smartphones shipped last year,
most of which can communicate with nearby sensors via
multiple wireless languages. At the same time, the
staggering scale of the smartphone market has spurred
sensor manufacturers to miniaturize and innovate,
driving the cost of all the wireless chipsets (both sensors
and receivers) down to a pittance.

information to your phone, and from there to the cloud—
at a relatively minimal manufacturing cost.
