We live in a world where transportation are going through a dramatic transformation, from isolated systems to an integrated network of smart devices and systems that can ‘talk’ to each other and create a smart world. Thanks to the Internet of Things more data is created than ever before and by 2020 sensor data will make up 40% of all data created. These sensors can be tiny nano-sensors that are part of smart dust that can be sprayed on surface to measure chemicals in the soil or entire smart buildings that are capable of optimizing how the building uses its energy based on who is in the building where.
For companies that want to take advantage of this unprecedented opportunity should already start thinking about how to turn the organisation, factory or building into a smart one as the implementation will take quite some time. Apart from the physical transformation, it will also require a cultural transformation to become a data-driven information centric organisation. If you do not want to be left behind in 2020, it is therefore time to start planning now. This infographic, developed by Intel, gives some ideas of the coming possibilities and gives you perhaps some inspiration how to make your organisation smart.
