Great news!

Josh Siegel, the hardware and embedded software lead for MIT's CloudCar project has just confirmed as our main speaker. I invited Josh because open standards are so important to achieving the IoT's full potential: CloudCar is attempting to create a single open standard that would be usable across the entire telematics field, bringing together proprietary programs such as OnStar and new open standard innovations. Better yet, the MIT team's vision extends to "CloudCity," consisting of CloudPeople, CloudWork, CloudHomes... all providing big data in a central location with a common API.

We'll be announcing a few additional speakers that will be giving short, TED-type talks, including industrial M2M manufacturers, small start-ups in the commercial space, etc.: just enough to get the talk going, which, afterall, is the main reason for convening this group!

PS: Let me know if you're interested in presenting at a future meeting!

Another great addition to our program! Carson Darling and Chao He of RestDevices (http://www.restdevices.com/) will be representing the start-up community with a presentation on their Peeko "onesie," whose built-in sensors can help reduce the parental nightmare of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). Here's what I blogged about the Peeko recently (http://www.stephensonstrategies.com.php53-23.ord1-1.websitetestlink.com/iot-award-winner-rest-devices-infant-monitor-smart-onsie-can-avoid-sids/).
