"Anytime you're dealing with IoT, you know, the first thing one has to realize is you're working at a systems level, at a very high systems level. And the key to good systems engineering and systems design is don't build what you should buy... Basically, you have to build, only that which really differentiates you in the marketplace, and that really solves the problem that you're trying to solve. And then the follow on to that is the biggest miss in IoT right now, particularly industrial IoT, is the developers forget about one extremely important thing, and that's deployment."- Scott A. Nelson, Reuleaux Technology, LLC. What is the Internet of Things? Scott explains it is the digitization of the physical world and connecting that to the internet where you can apply unlimited computing resources to convert that data into useful information. He discusses the evolution and future of IoT. He identifies the smartphone to have the most profound impact on the current health tech industry. Scott discusses the financial mistakes startup companies make when creating a new IoT product. He also stresses that security is not something you buy, it's something you get through your development. It must be core to everything you do. Scott thinks AI systems will continue to learn if the system is built right, if more data keeps coming into the system, and as long as it's parameterized broadly.
