What Is Telematics and Why Does it Matter?
Illustration: © IoT For All Automotive technology is undoubtedly impressive. Growing up, I remember playing my favorite cassette tapes and CDs in my parents’ station wagon. My parents, in turn, remember their first cars with an 8-track player. Now, we can connect our iPhones to our cars via CarPlay to play music, direct us to our destination and use Siri to send messages to our friends. Cars are becoming increasingly connected over time.
IoT Applications in Cannabis Tech
Illustration: © IoT For All Would you believe me if I told you that legal cannabis sales in the United States hit almost $10B in 2018? With more and more states legalizing or decriminalizing recreational or medicinal marijuana use every year, the cannabis market is exploding in popularity. In fact, it’s poised to break $20B by 2023, doubling the market size in just five short years.

The Internet of Wine: From Agtech to Smart Cellars
What if I told you that the internet of things could help us produce more (and better) wine? As author Reilly Dunn mentioned in our recent IFA article on use cases of IoT in agriculture, precision farming is a huge opportunity. Farmers can take advantage of advances in technology to improve their yields and to minimize wasteful spending. Technology can seem daunting, but its ROI in agriculture isn’t something to ignore. It’s estimated that agriculture IoT has a current market opportunity of $4B USD.
IoT Applications in Consumer Healthcare
Illustration: © IoT For All Have you been to a doctor at any point in your life? Congratulations, if you answered “yes,” you’re a healthcare consumer! Nearly 85 percent of US adults see a healthcare provider at least once a year and US children top that number, coming in at nearly 93 percent a year. We must see those numbers in a greater context when it comes to healthcare consumption: having an appointment with a provider is not the only time humans check on their health.
IoT Applications for Healthcare Providers
Futurists look toward healthcare with a keen eye when it comes to the uptake of IoT in industries. It has collected a reputation of being traditional, difficult to penetrate, and wildly siloed. At first, it may seem like the least ideal environment for IoT. Dig a little further and—voila—it becomes clear that the healthcare industry has nearly innumerable opportunities for innovation through IoT.
IoT Applications for Healthcare Payers
IoT is huge, and it’s only growing bigger. You can find connectivity everywhere from commercial farms to your water bottle. No longer do we just see “IoT”; we’re also witnessing the rise of industry-specific segments such as IIoT (industrial internet of things) or IoMT (internet of medical things.) One of the biggest market opportunities in IoT is within IoMT, and there are a ton of IoT applications for healthcare payers.
IoT Energy Applications: From Smart Vehicles to Smart Meters
"Utilities" may not sound like a buzzword. Nonetheless, IoT is quickly making the energy sector an exciting space. From smart metering to vehicle-to-grid solutions, the utilities are primed for reinvention. IoT is ushering in a lot of exciting developments in virtual reality, artificial intelligence, amplified industrial processes. We’re making “digital twins” of just about everything.
3 Key IoT Applications in Real Estate
IoT applications in real estate are promising. From predictive maintenance to accelerated decision making to increased energy efficiency, IoT will improve both the real estate industry and our everyday lives. Buying a home is one of the most significant commitments that anyone can make in their life.
IoT Applications in Transportation
Our lives run on transportation. It gets us to work in the mornings, delivers fresh food to our grocery stores, and encourages us to travel to far corners of our wide world. While we may view transportation as a cumbersome, traditional industry, I challenge you to think back to the world of the late 1800s. I’m sure thousands of people thought the first car was a new-fangled invention that would never take hold in society. The car was revolutionary, as was the truck, train, and airplane.
MWC Americas 2018 – Top 10 Interviews from the Show
IoT For All escaped the wind and rain of Hurricane Florence and traveled to sunny Los Angeles for Mobile World Congress Americas 2018 to bring you exclusive insights from the show. Although the communications industry was buzzing about the implications of 5G, the theme of the event this year from an IoT perspective was definitely solutions.
