In this IoT Time, Ken says Happy New Year, misses David Bowie, and runs down the tech from CES that had an actual function. In his MyIoT segment, he applauds those few and proud developers who understand that 2016 will be the year of actual function in the IoT. It’s time to stop merely monitoring and get on to functioning.

In partnership news from the IoT, U.S. Cellular inks a new deal for M2M solutions and two big vendors create turnkey option by joining forces. Meanwhile, the security of the IoT is a big deal, and according to a new study, not just in terms of data and privacy. Infrastructure, too, can be at risk. In My IoT, Ken rants wildly about why he’s fed up with wearables that are ugly, uncomfortable and trying to do too much.

On today’s IoT Time: Wearables are going to become ubiquitous, but only once they get better. Android OS had a huge hole in its biometric security protocols, but they fixed it. Machine learning is required to make Big Data smarter. On MYIoT, Ken digs into the idea that people aren’t equipped to analyze raw data themselves. We need smart algorithms and machines that can learn and deliver the actionable intelligence businesses can use to make better strategic moves.

Without a doubt fashion is one of the cornerstones of Wearable Technology. In many ways fashion has been a driving force behind a variety of WT technologies, especially relative to smart cloth and how devices and sensors interact with and become a part of the “fashion” itself. WT fashion pioneer and thought leader Syuzi Pakhchyan will take us into tomorrow’s world – where WT fashion will go and why.

Wearable Technology isn’t only about wearing a gadget. It is also about extending materials to become wearable in invisible ways that do not show up as devices that need to be strapped on to an arm or around your head. As Wearable Technology becomes more sophisticated it will in many cases simply become a part of the clothes you wear or even directly a part of your skin. Other smart materials will deliver soft circuits and conductive pigments that can be formed into active circuits that can be implanted directly in the skin and provide feedback on all sorts of things – perhaps a tiny glucose meter. This session will shed light on many of these new wearable materials and offer a view into tomorrow’s possibilities.

Hollywood has certainly long driven the imagination with all sorts of advanced technology. In the past this tech was all imaginary but in todays world nothing is left strictly to imagination any longer. From the wearable technology of Tron: Legacy to the advanced tech of the latest Star Trek, much of it can already be implemented in the real world. This session demonstrates the evolution of wearable tech in the movies to wearable tech in our real lives.

Todays wearable tech consumer products get most of the media attention, but as the industry moves forward and the goals of delivering ever smaller, ever less powerconsuming devices begin to take center stage, the internal electronics and sensors that will make up these new devices become ever more critical to new product development. This special lunch session will focus on the the hardware and software foundations that key hardware players have up their sleeves to drive WT technology forward.

By far the most popular type of wearable tech device is the health monitor. You may know this as a Nike Fuelband or a FitBit or a Jawbone Up or a Basis or a Shine or… Some people claim that only those who are already fully committed to a healthdriven lifestyle are the only ones who use them. Some people wear these devices merely as fashion statements. And those who should use them arent motivated to use them so their existence makes no difference. Where is the truth in all of this? Major industry wearable health tech players will render their verdicts.
