IIoT Bold Prediction Series Part 4: New Networking Protocol Changes IoT Connectivity

December 17, 2015

Before we move on to the next prediction in our IIoT Predictions series, let’s take a quick look back at the first three: A major security breach of an industrial SCADA system will bring new focus to IoT security. The government will become heavily involved in the regulation of IoT and IIoT devices. Predictive analytics will alter fundamental IT/OT practices. Part of the difficulty in procuring “predictions” for something like the Internet of Things is

IIoT Bold Prediction Series Part 3: Predictive Analytics Alters Fundamental IT/OT Practices

December 16, 2015

So far, our series of IIoT Bold Predictions for 2016 has focused on the concepts of IIoT security and government’s regulatory role in the development of IoT and IIoT devices. Today, we’re changing gears a bit, with a prediction from Scott Allen, FreeWave’s CMO, which focuses on the implementation of IIoT technology into big data practices to create real-time, data-driven intelligence. Prediction #3: Predictive Analytics Alters Fundamental IT/OT Practices Predictive analytics will change the nature of industrial communication systems and

The year 2015 is soon coming to an end as the year 2016 looks to be ushering in exciting new ways in which the Internet of Things (IoT) is changing our way of life. It’s easy to see these transformations taking shape on the consumer side (home automation, smart appliances, connected cars, personal computers, smart devices, etc.), but what will 2016 hold for the Industrial IoT (IIoT) space? (Note: Go here for a quick rundown on the

2018 Analyst IIoT Predictions

December 15, 2017

Each year we like to go inside FreeWave and ask our team what the Industrial IoT forecast looks like for the upcoming year. Throughout 2017 we were hard at work developing some of our industry-leading Edge intelligence and industrial Wi-Fi products, so this year, instead of looking inward, we decided to take a peek around the world at 2018 IIoT predictions from some of the leading experts. Network World Based off a Forrester report,

Who’s Your Betamax of IoT Standards?

March 22, 2016

Image Courtesy of Flickr Creative Commons In the world of IoT/IIoT an explosion of standards has fallen upon us. While we all can agree that standards are what binds our current communication infrastructures together, it does take time for the victorious standard to rise to the top of adoption. Some of us remember the battle that arose in the video tape arena between VHS and Betamax (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Videotape_format_war). While Betamax’s claim to fame was the superior picture, VHS

Can You Hear Me Now? Remote Wi-Fi in the Connected World

January 20, 2016

(Image courtesy of Tony Webster, via Flickr Creative Commons) One of the more fascinating aspects of our eternal march toward ‘the future’ is the occasional, but impacting, intersection of our critical infrastructure and the general consumer. Like a sine wave across the axis, our connected world meets at points in time that catalyze technological explosions. The transition of computers from behemoth industrial-sized calculators into the first iteration of the personal computer is a good, somewhat
