Pathfindr has today unveiled its next generation of asset intelligence hardware to provide leading Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) capability and technology. The enhanced range boasts a number of new features including the addition of cutting-edge LoRa technology (long range, low power and secure data transmission wireless technology), improved battery life, audible alerts and temperature and humidity sensors as standard.
The Wearable Technology Show is Europe’s biggest event for wearables, AR/VR, and the Internet of Things. According to the organisers around 6,000 people attended the fourth incarnation of this esteemed event. Leading names across almost every aspect of connected technology were present to show their wares and share their insights. The Wearable Technology Show was co-located with the "AR, VR & MXR Show", and "IOT Connect".
Guest By Waracle on March 7, 2017 Just getting your head around IoT (Internet of Things)? Open up, here comes IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) and the opportunities are as amazing as they are untapped. Despite both being brushed off as just the latest buzz words the proliferation of everyday devices made smart using embedded sensors that communicate over the internet such as Amazon Echo, Fitbit, Phillips Hue Light-bulbs and Nest are far from passing fads.
Posted By Simon Montford on March 5, 2016 Most of today's consumer drones are controlled via short-range signals like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or radio airwaves, so their capabilities are severely restricted, unlike military UAVs such as the Predator, that can be operated by a person located thousands of miles away. By utilising a 5G cellular network, however, a consumer drone could theoretically (regulation aside) be controlled from anywhere and have limitless range just like military drones do today. Currently 4G is incapable of providing this capability because it can't offer real-time feedback as there's simply too much of a delay between when you send a signal and when you get a response, known as latency.
Posted By Simon Montford on Feb 24, 2016 Yesterday I attended what for me was the highlight of the entire show so far; Keynote 8 of Mobile World Congress in Barcelona: "Qualcomm & MERCEDES AMG Petronas Formula One Team". The event was billed as a keynote speech by Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton, but it turned out to be more of a "fireside chat". I live broadcast the panel via Periscope, which consisted of Derek Aberle (Qualcomm’s president), Lewis Hamilton (Formula One World Champion), and Paddy Lowe (Executive Director, Technical Mercedes AMG Petronas). The session was moderated by Nicki Shields, TV Presenter & Journalist for Formula E & CNN.
Posted By Simon Montford on Feb 12, 2016 As a media partner, WEB3//IOT was invited to cover the IoT Tech Expo, which took place in London on the 10-11 February. The event covered many different industry sectors including manufacturing, transport, health, logistics, government, energy and automotive. Exhibitors from across Europe showcased cutting-edge technologies, and over 200 speakers shared industry knowledge and insights. As I wandered through the expo area, I came across an exhibitor called ThingWorx, that provides an apps platform that makes it easy for developers to build, deploy and evolve applications for the IoT.
Posted By Simon Montford on Oct 23 2015 Earlier this week I attended the Commercial UAV Show, which was a two day event that took place on 20-21st October 2015 at ExCeL, London. I decided against getting a conference pass (you can check out the agenda here), because what I really enjoy about events is the opportunity to network. By meeting the exhibitors, and chatting with attendees I was able to gain a huge amount of industry knowledge within a very short time.
Posted By Simon Montford on Oct 21, 2014  The article was a guest post for TechDrive It is tempting to hurl insults at your car when it does something to annoy you, like breakdown when you’re late for a meeting, but one day your car may have the intelligence to respond! This is not a scene from the movie “Herbie Goes Bananas”, it’s the future of personal transportation.

As an entrepreneur and innovation specialist, I am fascinated by new technologies. I am constantly thinking about how they could be utilized and what impact they may have on society in general. I was recently approached by a European startup that has developed some very interesting patent protected Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) technology that is capable of monitoring the condition of high value assets like aircraft, in real-time. Not only that but their diagnosis and prognosis algorithms could be used to predict damage and structural failure before it happens. Furthermore some of the smart materials they are developing could one day enable aircraft to self heal during operation! |
