Le monde de l’internet des objets, ce réseau qui permet de connecter les objets physiques de la vie réelle à Internet et collecter des données, est en véritable ébullition. Présent un peu partout : l’industrie, les espaces publics – smart cities – la domotique, l’e-santé, etc. Au programme, showrooms technos & usages, conférences*, workshops, barcamps, FabLab, ainsi qu’un pôle de recrutement. *Conférences Enjeux et Stratégie : Quels enjeux pour les marques à l’heure du tout connecté ?

Why 2013 will be the year of the Internet of Things - The Next Web - Iceweasel This year’s Le Web event in Paris was based around the them of the Internet of Things (IoT); the way in which objects around us will gather data and connect to controls or other machines via the Internet. The term Internet of Things was coined by the British technologist Kevin Ashton in 1999. Today, the huge amounts of data we are producing and the advances in mobile technologies are bringing the idea into our homes and daily lives. There are still issues that need to be bashed out of course, proprietary technologies and closed data systems don’t do much to help things along. However, products like the Fitbit or Fuelband are already becoming commonplace and makers are experimenting with remote systems like Lockitron for front doors and Growerbot for watering house plants. Dealing with data It’s important to consider where data is coming from when thinking about IoT. “It should be the Internet of nouns,” he told The Next Web. Open platforms Calm technology Super humans Power of the mind

How the Internet-of-Things Will Shape the Future In December of last year, IEEE placed the web-of-things (WoT) as second in its top 10 tech trends for 2014. As the world reaches for greater connectivity, the Internet of Things (IoT) has become a vital instrument to interconnect devices. No doubt, the IoT will prove to be a disruptive technology. When Bosch decided to create the IoT company, Bosch Connected Devices and Solutions, it served as a reminder of how this seemingly new concept has quickly become mainstream. What is the Internet of Things? Companies like Samsung and GE are manufacturing products like smart thermostats, lighting systems and other appliances that communicate using the IoT. A wide adoption of the Internet of Things model will result in the generation of a large amount of data requiring storage, processing and retrieval. Elements of IoT The technical component of the IoT is its hardware elements like sensors, actuators, and embeddable chips. RFID Sensors are being implanted in humans as well

Position Statement on the Use of RFID on Consumer Products Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an item-tagging technology with profound societal implications. Used improperly, RFID has the potential to jeopardize consumer privacy, reduce or eliminate purchasing anonymity, and threaten civil liberties. As organizations and individuals committed to the protection of privacy and civil liberties, we have come together to issue this statement on the deployment of RFID in the consumer environment. In the following pages, we describe the technology and its uses, define the risks, and discuss potential public policy approaches to mitigate the problems we raise. RFID tags are tiny computer chips connected to miniature antennae that can be affixed to physical objects. While there are beneficial uses of RFID, some attributes of the technology could be deployed in ways that threaten privacy and civil liberties: Hidden placement of tags. Technology assessment. Principles of Fair Information Practice. Openness, or transparency. Attachment 1 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
