Today, Monday April 23 2018 the Columbia University Tech and Policy Series presents Internet of Things: Perspectives from National Planning in Brazil & China in NYC. This workshop aims at exploring how countries could design and implement national policies for the Internet of Things (IoT) to support the modernization of their industry and economy, based on the recent practical experiences from Brazil and China. Representatives from the government and the private sector involved in the implementation of the national plans from both countries will join Columbia University scholars to address the following issues: • Why should countries consider IoT national plans? • What are the best practices based on the Chinese and Brazilian experiences? • How did China and Brazil approach the collaborative process of building a national IoT plan, and what were the policy issues that they focused on solving? • What are the global regulatory challenges related to IoT that can be tackled at the national levels in these plans? The event will be webcast live on the Internet Society Livestream Channel.
Today, Wednesday March 28 2018 at 7pm ET (23:00 UTC) the Internet Society Livestream Channel will webcast an edited recording of the April Internet of Things (IoT) NY meetup. This took place on April 9th which was IoT Day and focused on Edge Intelligence. The International Data Corporation (IDC) has concluded that by 2019 at-least 40% of IoT data will be stored, processed, analyzed and acted upon close to, or at the edge of the network. Topics were data processing at the edge and the promise of improved agility, security and reliability in data-handling and analytics systems. Speakers: Ed Maguire, Venture Partner, Momenta Partners; Neil Cohen, VP Marketing, Edge Intelligence; and Amir Halfon, VP Strategic Solutions,  iguazio .
Today, Friday March 30 2018, theInternet Society Washington DC Chapter (ISOC DC) and the Internet Governance Lab will host a mini-conference Governing the Internet of Things at the American University in Washington DC. The Internet’s architecture and governance structures have been designed to enable innovation, global communication and the free flow of information, but the Internet of Things presents a new range of governance challenges. An Internet embedded in the material world creates new and increased concerns around privacy, security, and the possibility of physical harm to people and disruption of material infrastructure. To what extent do the Internet’s underlying architectural and governance principles need to evolve to address these risks? What is the outlook for security and privacy in the context of ubiquitous cyber-physical systems that range from cars to medical devices to home control systems? What forms of inequality and discrimination are emerging in this environment? This panel brings together stakeholders from industry, design communities, civil society and academia to address the transformation of Internet governance in the age of cyber-physical systems. Speakers: Cory Doctorow, Author; Paul Ohm, Professor Georgetown Law; Alexandra Deschamps-Sonsino, Open Internet of Things Certification Mark; Gilad Rosner, Internet of Things Privacy Forum; Tatevik Sargsyan, Ranking Digital Rights Project, New America Foundation; Adam Thierer, George Mason University; Derrick Cogburn, American University; Laura DeNardis, American University; Andrew Rens, American University.
Today, Wednesday March 28 2018 at Noon ET (16:00 UTC) the Internet Society Livestream Channel will webcast an edited recording of yesterday’s Internet of Things (IoT) NY meetup. This month’s IoT-NY focused on Signal Processing (analyzing, synthesizing, and modifying signal data) and Predictive Analytics (analyzing current and historical facts to make predictions about future or otherwise unknown events) within the context of IoT. These data analytics and machine learning techniques are often employed for the efficient servicing of connected devices and machines before failure or catastrophe, thereby reducing the time, money and pain of owner, operator, or customer. Speakers: Stuart Feffer, Co-Founder & CEO, Reality AI; Saar Yoskovitz, CEO / Co-Founder, Augury
Today, Friday February 16 2018 at 11am ET (14:00 UTC) the Internet Society Livestream Channel will webcast an edited recording of last Tuesday’s Internet of Things (IoT) NY meetup, held in conjunction with the Time-Series Data NY meetup featuring presentations from two fast growing companies in the field ofIoT in Manufacturing. Nowadays our products are almost always assembled by machine: plastic extruders, sheet metal stampers, textile spinning machines, robotic arms programmed for specific tasks. The machines and equipment vary, depending on the product being made, with the manufacturing processes overseen by humans. Until recently, the performance parameters of the machines (e.g., pressure, humidity, moisture, temperature, rotational speed) have been largely invisible to us. In other words, we need to capture data. Consequently, the efficiency of our processes is jeopardized by the fact that we don’t know what is happening at all times along our assembly lines. In other words, we don’t capture data at all or if we do, we don’t put it to actionable use. This is why manufacturing is one of IoT’s biggest markets. With the right data collection, processing, storage and analytics solution in place, companies can save hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars through process optimization, maximizing resource efficiency and, ultimately, increasing productivity. Speakers: Eric Fogg, COO & Founder, MachineMetrics; Devon Peticolas, Data Engineer Oden Technologies –

On July 30 2014 the NYC IoT: Internet of Things Meetup hosted their second meetup event at the Urban Future Lab (UFL) at NYU Poly in Brooklyn. The UFL is home to the New York City Accelerator for a Clean Resilient Economy (NYACRE), and thus the whole evening had a cleantech theme, with current and former NYACRE participants among the presenters. Following a tour of the Lab, and a brief presentation from sponsor Indiegogo , there were demos from Radiator Labs – who have designed a connected “cosy” that greatly increases the efficiency of steam radiators; thinkeco – who make modular kit to intelligently manage AC systems; Keen Home – who make a connected smart vent to enhance heat management; and Enertiv – a sophisticated energy usage monitor. NYC IoT founder Mitchell Golner then announced IoTBase – a repository for IoT projects that is still in Beta. Finally the member announcements segment included multiple appeals for software engineers to fill job openings! ISOC-NY cameras were there for the whole thing. Video is below.
