Man Meet Machine: The Internet of Things Meet Up

#sxsw #IoTmeetup

Iap993527

This meetup will focus on how connected devices from our smartphones to our cars and even medical devices are transforming the way we live and work. Whether it’s for personal devices, a social network, a humanitarian effort or for business resource optimization, a key characteristic of the Internet of Things is its massive scale and self-organizing nature. As sensor prices drop and cloud makes sharing data across the Internet increasing easy, smart devices are getting woven into the fabric of our daily lives and enabling global connectedness and the opportunity for new technologies to make everyone's lives better. The Internet of Things is connecting us all, so we should connect in person to discuss where this is all headed. All entrepreneurs, developers, data professionals, technologists, scientists, the DIY community, Web community managers and anyone else who is excited about the Internet of Things should join us for this session.
