Energy Management in the Coming Internet of Things

In this talk, Gene Wang and David Moss will discuss the Energy Internet ofThings and describe how Brains in the Cloud can connect with billions of sensor-based nerves and muscles in the physical world to go places the Internet never dreamed of. Smart objects and their connected networks can regulate electrical grids, watch for ocean pollution or forest fires, track every vehicle, and optimize energy use in buildings, homes, factories, signs, bridges, warehouses and in every appliance, consumer electronics device and office equipment. A live demonstration of real-time energy monitoring and control will be given. We will discuss how Open Source plays a role in driving innovation and interoperability while new standards such as SEP2 and 802.15.4g along with Internet foundations such as IPv6 and PPP, combined with cloud services such as ESP will drive the coming Internet of Things.

Speaker: Gene Wang, CEO, People Power
