4. Main Markets Building Automation Industrial Automation Lighting
Commercial Transportation / Fleet Mgmt
Enterprise Asset Management
Smart Cars
Test and Measurement
Energy Grid (Smart Grid)

6. Building Automation
One of the oldest mesh networks not dedicated to communications
Predominantly wired – remainder is a mix of proprietary and public standards
Birthplace of ZigBee wireless networks
Also includes other standards as LonWorks
Slowly being integrated into Smart Grid as well as business management systems

7. Industrial Automation
Many legacy systems – few standards (some communications standards, but little data sharing capability
Wired predominantly
RS-485
20mA loop
Ethernet
Some wireless, including ZigBee and some WiFi
Deterministic

8. Lighting Energy savings Security Safety Bulb life
Litton and others – started with proprietary systems
Wired and ZigBee for IIoT
Z-Wave primary market for consumer

9. Commercial Transportation / Fleet Mgmt
Two models: captive route (rail) or ‘open road’
Rail systems are a mix of proprietary and standards from the railroad industry
New systems for light rail
Above also applies to bus and subway (and trolley) systems
Fleet management is a cross between asset management and smart vehicle

10. Enterprise Asset Management
Was the birth of IoT
Diverse communication channels
Optical (barcode, QR, etc)
RFID
Mesh
Wifi
Mesh (such as ZigBee) is only practical for high cost items

11. RTI – Assets not just WalMart

12. Smart Cars Currently being treated as a “Internet” of its own
High end auto may have over 100 cpus / cores
Now, scale this to the Smart Highway…
With electric vehicles, this then becomes part of Smart Grid
Trucking -> Fleet Management
True IIoT

13. Test and Measurement “Smart Structures” Meteorlogical
Aircraft and Ships
Wearables
Numerous R&D applications

14. Energy Grid (Smart Grid)

15. How Big are the Markets?

16. Topologies

17. Others Medical Social / Demographic Agriculture / Aquaculture
What else?
What new areas are YOU working on?
