FACTORS IMPACTING IOT ADOPTION

IoT solution

development is

too complex and

takes too long

Interoperability and

standardization is

lacking impacting

supportability

Low power endpoints

in a Cloud first world

Customers lack

understanding of the

value IoT can deliver


E2E IoT solution development is too complex and takes too long, often requiring

specialized knowledge and development skills which are scarce. This creates a lag

in ROI and negatively impacts the business case.

Customers don’t want lock in to vendor specific solutions that “do it all.” They want

choice and interoperability without significant custom development. They want to be

able to support these solutions using their current ITcapabilities.

Backend IoT application development has become much simpler with the

emergence of 500+ IoT Cloud platforms, but almost all assume endpoints are IP

capable and lack a bridge to the world of low power endpoints.

The range of IoT use cases is enormous, customers today understand the

technology, but building a business case for massive scale deployments is often a

blocker.

5WHAT DRIVES TECHNOLOGY CHOICES FOR ENTERPRISES?

Choice of networking

technology is

APPLICATIONS-DRIVEN

Enterprises focus on value and longevity

• Open standards are driven and supported

by the industry

• Single point of failure risks

• Private versus public networks

Digitalization strategies call for

“connecting everything”

• Wireless is rapidly growing to be the

preferred connectivity

• Long range reduces capex and opex

• Massive IoT is powered by batteries

0.3 kbps to 50 kbps

Strengths:

• Short or long range [>10 miles]

• Longest battery life [up to 10 years]

• Low cost of infrastructure implementation, easy to add nodes

• Flexibility: public or private networks, capex or service model available

• Deep penetration inside home/buildingsand underground

• Allows for roaming, FUOTA

Weaknesses:

• Not good for high data-rate transmissions

Long Range, Licensed

=>100 mbps

Strengths:

• Long range communications

• High data-rate transmissions

• Advanced features for routing, multicast, firmware broadcast, etc.

• Works well indoors and in denseurban areas

Weaknesses:

• Short battery life when using high data rates or always on status

• High costs due to infrastructure requirements

• Service model only [high ongoingmonthly subscription fees]

• Limited availability

server for

authentication and

integrity on the radio

link

• Device to end

application (end to

end) for confidentiality

on public or shared

networks

• Scalable capacity

• Bi-directional

broadcast

• Network management

• Roaming for global

mobility

• Can be implemented

anywhere using private

networks

• 10+ miles

• Long battery

lifetimes

• Multiple device

classes optimize

energy use

[application specific]

• Network-driven

• Works indoors or

outdoors

• Highly accurate

• No impact on

device size, cost

or battery

• Open standard,

not proprietary

• Not dependent on

a single vendor

• Delivers FUOTA

15KEY TECHNOLOGY DIFFERENTIATORS

• Very low power consumption enabling massive IoT

• Firmware updates over the air (FUOTA)

• Geolocation natively integrated supporting the majority of use cases

• Different network deployment models which give freedom of choice to

B2B customers (public and private networks)

• Open-source protocol based on industry collaboration, allowing us to

achieve a stronger technology that is truly future-proof

22PNI SENSOR UTILIZES MACHINEQ TOELIMINATE PARKING HEADACHES INTHE U.S.

• PlacePod devices can identify when a vehicle is parking,

parked, or absent in a particular space

• Upon detecting the status of a specific parking space,

PlacePod sends a real-time status update to a wireless

gateway

• Data informs drivers of available parking, facilitates

billing and alerts law enforcement for ticketing

Benefit: Cities see a decrease in traffic and increase in revenue

from ticketing parking violations that may have otherwise gone

unnoticed


Benefit: New insight from data; workforce optimization; real-world IoT

experience; increased revenue through new offerings
