PITTSBURGH, PA — (Marketwired) — 02/09/15 — (MIG) will explore the integral nature of MEMS/sensors to the Internet of Things/Everything (IoT/E) during , 9-10 March, 2015 in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The IHS Internet of Things Report 2014 forecasts a staggering 86 billion connected devices by 2024. According to MIG, these include consumer products, such as wearables and mobile handsets, as well as automobiles, smart home appliances, and mHealth devices — and every one of these products includes some variety of MEMS and sensors.
“From accelerometers, gyroscopes, microphones, pressure sensors and magnetometers to temperature, humidity and optical sensors, MEMS and sensors proliferate in IoT/E devices,” said Karen Lightman, executive director, MEMS Industry Group. “European companies and research organizations are at the forefront of developing the MEMS and sensors used in the IoT/E. At the same time, they are leveraging the vast data collected by IoT/E devices to improve the user experience with mobile phones, health and fitness devices, cars, smart factories and more. This year–s MEMS Executive Congress Europe speakers will share current research and discuss commercial opportunities of MEMS and sensors, empowering attendees to pursue the IoT/E and related markets.”
“BOSCH-DRIE: Enabling Technology to the Market” — , vice president, Corporate Sector Research and Advanced Engineering, Microsystems Technologies,
“mHealth–s Next Super Model” — , business development manager, Health & Care Technologies,
“Creating a MEMS Development Ecosystem in China to Drive Innovation for IoT” — Roc Blumenthal, vice president of international technical development, /STINI
