Although the concept of the Internet of Things has been around for decades, with the influence of society, law and ethics, with the popularity of networks and wireless, and cheap sensor chips, as part of emerging technologies, the Internet of Things has gradually gained popularity. Last week, at the Wearable Technology Conference and Expo, I learned that wearable technology is just like the development of the Internet of Things, but it needs to look attractive enough to be worn on the hands, feet, or face.
Wearable technology is a branch of the Internet of Things. Like the Internet of Things, it has been around for years. It started with television glasses in 1963, and Shawn DuBravac, chief economist at the American Consumer Electronics Association, said that the device that didn't look good looked like the glasses invented by Luxembourg science fiction publisher Hugo Gernsback. In addition, just like the Internet of Things, established electronics manufacturers such as Qualcomm, TE Electronics, Samsung, and Freescale have enabled technology to be used on a large scale, while popular companies such as Fibit and Google have also introduced some cool ones. Wear the product.
Unlike the Internet of Things, clothing manufacturers and jewelers have joined the ranks. Adidas has launched fitness tracking sneakers.
DuBravac said that this year will be the year of wearable technology, because this year will produce 22 million to 28 million wearable devices, an increase of 50%-80% over last year. In the United States, 5% of adults wear fitness trackers and 2% wear smart watches. The popularity is not very wide, and wearable technology is still developing. This year is also the year of the Internet of Things. As far as I know, this is a blog post from Forrester Research, which is written after Google announced that it will acquire the thermostat manufacturer Nest for $3.2 billion.
The similarity between wearable technology and the Internet of Things is that everyone wants to make money from it, but everyone is afraid to do it. During the meeting, some people said: "This is not a device problem, but a data problem: how to design an effective wearable device." It is clear that the public's concern about privacy is much higher than how to design interesting applications. This presentation points more to the problems that arise than to the nature of data usage.
According to Lubna Dajani, head of Stratemerge, location and health information will be made public when wearables are connected to the Internet, which will not only attract criminals, but also attract companies like insurance companies who will determine coverage based on fitness tracker data.
Other issues related to health care have also attracted attention. Mobiquity's vice president, Eugene Signorini, pointed out the reality that certain patients, such as schizophrenic patients, wear medical trackers and share privacy when sharing information with doctors and family members.
What about hardware? Sensor development phase. Sensoplex's president, Amiz Farzaneh, said that although the sensor can detect the number of steps, it can't detect whether the steps are up or down, but for a long time, they can be detected with arrays. Robert Thompson, a Freescale activist at WaRPboard.org, said that before mass production of sensors, they need to be more standardized and the production process updated.
Rob Chandhok, chairman of Qualcomm Interactive Platforms, said that batteries and power supplies also put hardware manufacturers in trouble. For wearable devices, battery life is still too short. For devices that want to appeal to the public, the battery is still too big. Even the placement of the battery is still uncertain.
Chandhok is actively working with AllJoyn and AllSeen to focus on designer standardization manufacturing and consumer privacy protection on the Internet of Things and wearables.
In addition to technical and privacy issues, what about the style of wearables? What does a smart watch with a gemstone look like? Anklets, high heels and ties? How about Google contact lenses?
Fiber Optic Patch Cable is also known as Fiber Optic Jumper or Fiber Optic Patch Cord. It is composed of a fiber optic cable terminated with different connectors on the ends. Fiber Optic Patch Cables are used in two major application areas: computer work station to outlet and patch panels or optical cross connect distribution center. XRX fiber provides various types of fiber optic patch cables including single-mode, multimode, multi-core, armored patch cables, as well as fiber optic pigtails and other special patch cables. For most of the patch cables, the SC, ST, FC, LC, MU, MTRJ, E2000 connectors (APC/UPC polish) are all available.
