THE GENIUS OF THINGS:
INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) AND ITS REAL
VALUE
Dr. Dennis Curry ! Vice President & Senior Director,
Business Innovation Centre and R&D, Europe
! Self fullfilling prophesy ! Masses of devices & sensors ! Generating oceans of data ! Signaling to a defined purpose ! Lacking insight capacity ! Limited ability to learn & help

GROWTH PLATFORMS
INNOVATION VISION
MEGA-MULTI-TRILLIONS DEVICES & SENSORS… PRODUCING TORRENTS OF DATA
It’s complex, it’s BIG, but it’s not
random
INSIGHTS EMERGE FROM RECOGNIZING PATTERNS
! How to notice patterns is both a human and machine skill
! It is about history and ultimately about pattern forecasting
! Patterns are often constrained by the lens through which they are seen – a version of prejudice
! IoT will recogise and present patterns where we weren’t looking
! This is where IOT helps us get really clever
SEPARATING THE RANDOM FROM THE COMPLEX PATTERN
! Our workplace machines contain many signaling devices
! One signal from one machine could be an isolated incident
! Similar signals from hundreds or tens of thousands of machines could indicate a pattern
! Need a capacity to observe and respond to the pattern

Insight and the Power of Many
TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION: UK
IOT is here to help us blend data and
guide us to be@er ways of working;
measuring and triggering change
which augments – not replaces – our
decisions and choices Smithsonianmag.com 26th March 2014
THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL CORTEX
! IOT drives cortex like evolution ! High level of connections between
regions or disciplines ! Learns to associate language with
standardised fields from for example, cloud services, apps & data
! IOT supports learning by observing and will have the capacity to adapt and reform hypotheses
! Potentially augmented genius because of its ability to overcome narrowly defined fields of enquiry & patterns
Hypothesis: WWW = Access Cloud = Services Cortex = Insight & PredicMon IOT represents a growing membrane into our physical world (including digital)

INSIGHTS & PREDICTING OUTCOMES
BRING IOT DOWN TO EARTH IN A DIGITAL WORKPLACE
! Everything is physical – even data ! Yet in our workplaces, we divide the physical
from the digital ! There is little true understanding of what
makes us effective at work, more creative, productive… or even happy
! We need a new augmented genius at work ! One which detects patterns and makes
observations which transcends organizational boundaries
! Helps us make better informed decisions ! Defining what makes a better workplace
PREDICTIVE CAPABILITY OF IOT
! It’s only based on patterns which adapt – not a magic sphere of crystal
! It’s the power to predict and assemble useful services around such a predication which matters
! In a range of applications from what you need for your next meeting to earthquake detection
! Recognising and connecting closed loops of systems and open ones where governance allows
IN THE END, IOT COMES DOWN TO HOW WE MAKE WORK BETTER
! Benefiting from the insight of things means we have a responsibility to act differently
! Though the technology assists, it’s down to us to adapt as individuals and groups, where we identify personal or organisational value
! Konica Minolta believes that the discovery of such value lies in collaboration
