Regulation

• Past, Present & Future • Examples of how different regulation

has created markets, driven innovation & enabled companies to migrate from products to a service based business model

• A instance where an industry is ahead of the regulation & an absence of regulation may kill innovation

• This is not a call for more regulation, rather an illustration of how regulatory change has enabled & driven innovation

#IoTUK

Consumer - Hands free driving legislation

• On December 1, 2003, a law, "The Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) (Amendment) (No. 4) Regulations 2003", came into force to prohibit drivers using a hand-held mobile phone, or similar device, while driving – one of the 1st in the world

• Before this change in the law, there was a nascent Bluetooth market focused on “wire replacement”

• This one piece of legislation changed the Bluetooth market & drove a wireless revolution in audio and in handsets

#IoTUK

Industrial - Fire Regulations (US)

• US Company enGauge, originally in the Fire Extinguisher (FE) pressure gauge business, has used regulation & enforcement to develop a “connected extinguisher”

• The wireless sensor reports FE pressure & location in accordance with US Federal Law

• This allows companies to know they are compliant with all Fire Code regulation to avoid costly fines or worse liability in the event of an incident

• This innovation has now means enGaugecan offer EaaS or Extinguishers as a Service

#IoTUK

Healthcare – Monitoring Sleep Apnoea

• On 1st January 2016 new EU rules for the licensing of drivers with Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA)

• OSA affects 4% of the UK population or 3.4M in the UK

• EU Directive now mandates the monitoring of patient compliance to treatment

• Mandiblular Advancement Device (MAD) from Somnomed with built in wireless monitor

• Devillebis CPAP treatment is connected using Mobile network

#IoTUK

Future – Autonomous Cars – Yes/No?

• Driver assistance now common in many new cars– Park pilot, Lane departure,

RADAR Controlled Adaptive Cruise

– No regulatory changes needed for these

• Autonomous car tech will be mainstream market ready by 2020

• What about regulation?

#IoTUK

Future - Developments ahead of regulation?

• Many regulatory challenges lay ahead

• Most notably – the questions of ethics & liability

• Summed up by the ethical questions– If an autonomous vehicle finds itself in a situation where it will either hit a

person in the road or an oncoming car, which will it choose?

– If one or the other were inevitable, would it rather hit another car full of passengers, or crash itself into a wall, potentially hurting its occupants?

• Most industry observers are predicting up to 10 years for widespread regulation to catch up with the Tech & the market

#IoTUK

Summary

• IoT businesses are already being enabled by existing regulation – expect more to come

• Regulation is traditionally developed in collaboration with stakeholders through consultations – this is an opportunity to engage with regulators & help shape the rules

• In the UK - Expect an Ofcom consolation to explore the needs of security of IoT

• As seen above, many regulatory situations present opportunities for innovation business success
