Meta Products — Book: 2.1 Reflective Practice. 2.1 Reflective Practice You don't need to have any super powers to be able to get a good picture of what the future has in store for us.
You simply have to observe that the future is a process of different events occurring in the right place, at the right time. We all have aspirations about the future that are constantly changing as they are fulfilled. And we do all sorts of things to realize our aspirations as we deal with our present. So, if you formulate the right combinations or analogies, you will probably come up with a close to accurate picture of the future.
We don't believe it's interesting or useful to tell you about our vision of the future.

This depends heavily on the quantities sold—we'll update this date at the end of our campaign. If you'd like to know more about our manufacturing and fulfillment process, keep reading! We want to be as transparent as possible without giving false expectations. We've previously used a contract manufacturer in Korea to produce several products. They've already built thousands of our module for our other customers. Our current lead times are 12 to 14 weeks on production due to the procurement of parts. Neurio: Home Intelligence by Energy Aware Technology Inc. First off, special thanks to people who are helping us bring Neurio to life: Jordan Husney, Chris Hennig, Mo Afrasiabi, Guo Zhenyu, Robert Virtue, Oren Shklarsky, Amir Valizadeh, and Sam Goldman.
We also thank our friends who have helped us put a great campaign together: Adrian Oruclar, Paul Detjen, Meera Dalal, Yaniv Talmor, Dallas Luther, Zach Supalla, Stephanie Rich, James Hallam, Salim Hassan, Sophia Haque, Robin Yaredic, Ava and Aryan Yazdani, Marla Parker, Taran Grey, Ramin Sahebjavaher, Ashish Mohan, Nicholas Himmelman, Andy Nguyen, Sina Sahami, Paul Cubbon. We also wish to thank our moms. Just because. LightBlue Cortado by Punch Through Design. Home Environmental Sensors: Ninja Sphere. We’ve told you before about Ninja Blocks, a home automation system that couples wireless sensors with simple software to create rules for things like motion detection alerts and remotely switching lights on or off.
Now the eponymous Australia-based startup behind Ninja Blocks is hard at work on the next evolution of the connected home: the Ninja Sphere. In addition to the environmental sensors of the Ninja Blocks system, the Ninja Sphere will be able to connect to just about any wireless device through WiFi, Bluetooth, or ZigBee (a wireless standard for low-power devices). That means your phone, webcam, and WiFi-enabled TV can all be part of your Ninja Sphere, along with any number of third-party home automation gadgets. The heart of the Ninja Sphere is the Spheramid base station. Where the possibilities really open up, though, is in the Ninja Sphere’s location tracking ability.

Someone in the nineteenth century for instance would probably have responded to change very differently from the way you do.

Internet of Things Toolkit. Javascript and the Internet of Things. 3 Questions for Tom Coates on his Talking House. Xively – Public Cloud for the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things: What is the IoT Toolkit? This is the second of a three-part series on the Internet of Things with Atmel’s Tom Vu and Internet of Things Council member Michael Koster.
Read Part 1 here. Tom Vu (TV): What is in the roadmap for IoT Toolkit? Michael Koster (MK): The IoT Toolkit is an open source project to develop a set of tools for building multi-protocol Internet of Things gateways and service gateways that enable horizontal co-operation between multiple different protocols and cloud services. The project consists of the Smart Object API, gateway service, and related tools. Michael Koster. The foundation of the platform is purely bottom up, based on applying best practices and standards in modern web architecture to the problem of interoperability of IoT data models.
To that end, I created a public github and started building the framework of the data model encapsulations and service layer, and mapped out some resourceful access methods via a REST interface. [via bsr.org] Dragrove - Generic gateway for internet of things. Dragrove is an open source based generic gateway for internet of things.
It combines Dragino (Easy Internet Access, powerful CPU, Linux system), Arduino compatible interface board (monitoring and controlling the physical world), and RF networks like X-Bee. Dragino MS12 is a wifi/linux enabled appliance for MCU projects. The goal of the Dragino is to solve the connectivity problem and greatly enhance microcontroller products. The Arduino compatible daughter board provides plug and play interface like Grove, it also provides 8 IO terminals for developers to easily create Internet of things projects, Robotics, Smart Home, Wireless Sensor Networks and many beyond.
Features: Open WRT based Arduino Compatible IO extension bus ready for hacking Build-in Grove connector XBee wireless module socket IoT (internet of things) gateway Remore firmware update Dual NIC enabled wifi router User-friendly admin Interface. Monitor: An internet of airborne things. THE spread of mobile phones in developing countries in the past decade has delivered enormous social and economic benefits.

Image: Spark Devices Companies from Google to Comcast to Electric Imp are trying to connect home devices and appliances to the web, but the internet of things remains more of a complicated, distant dream than a reality. Spark Devices wants to start off simple, with one of the most used items in your house — the light bulb. Spark Devices launched on Kickstarter with a working prototype of what it calls the Spark Socket. All a user needs to do to get their lights on the web is screw a regular light bulb into the Spark Socket and screw that into a regular light fixture. InternetActu.net sur LeMonde.fr. L’internet des objets… drogués.
Que se passerait-il si les objets connectés pouvaient se comparer les uns les autres ? Si les objets pouvaient réagir à la pression de leurs pairs ? C’est l’étrange question que pose le projet de recherche AddictedProducts (voir également le blog) du designer Simone Rebaudengo, étudiant à l’université de technologie de Delft et qui travaille également en compagnie du designer Husman Haque, l’inventeur de Pachube (devenu Cosm), la plateforme pour interconnecter les objets via l’internet. Image : les toasters disséminés chez leurs locataires. Simone Rebaudengo s’est intéressé à l’intérêt que nous portons aux produits et à l’intérêt que le marketing voudrait nous voir leur porter.
Le produit idéal pour bien des entrepreneurs serait donc le produit dont on a toujours besoin, qui chercherait toujours à se rappeler à vous, un produit qui capterait notre attention pour qu’on ressente son besoin, pour qu’on ne l’abandonne jamais.

Internet of Things Camera - Simple remote monitoring using a first-generation Eye-Fi wireless SD card and Adafruit Data Logging Shield for Arduino Introduction The Eye-Fi card is a tiny wireless memory card. It stores photos and fits inside a camera just like a regular SD card, but also has built-in WiFi transceiver that can upload images to your computer, smartphone or to various photo-sharing sites. We use one here when taking pictures for our tutorials — it’s a great timesaver, eliminating the extra USB transfer step that’s otherwise necessary. Can the Eye-Fi card work in an Arduino SD card adapter? What makes this combination way cooler than just a normal SD card or a USB cable to a computer is all the infrastructure provided by the Eye-Fi service — not just transferring images to your computer, but pushing them to your smartphone, photo-sharing sites like Flickr, issuing email or Twitter notifications, etc.
