Embedded World Conference proved to be a great opportunity to learn more about state of the art in IoT markets & technologies! Here’s what you might have missed regarding the Internet of Things at this year’s conference!
1. Embedded World Conference sparked this 2018 edition!
This year Nuremberg has seen the best IoT providers, developers and contributors gathered together once again to celebrate the embedded technologies. As Prof. Dr. Matthias Sturm, Chairman of Embedded World Conference steering board, said in the program introduction,”It is the embedded systems that make the whole Internet of Things and Industry 4.0 in short, digitization, possible in the first place. And technical development continues to move at a faster and faster pace” Well, Nuremberg’s edition did not prove him wrong.
The Embedded World in Nuremberg is the place to be if you are interested in the newest electronic technologies to take your IoT project to further, higher standards. Whether you are looking to enrich your knowledge about the Internet of Things or just looking for networking opportunities in the IoT world, the Nuremberg EW trade showis gaining increasing popularity and importance among the players of this exciting market.
2. Finalized IoT products, not just concepts
In fact, compared to the last Mobile World Congress, where the attention was more on mobile technologies and IoT applications were treated more as a “guest”, at Embedded World we have seen far more focus on.IoT related products and applications in real life.
The tradeshow has seen participants introducing many new IoT product concepts as well as more finalized products were showcased to present the latest real-life applications of IoT technologies. Besides, being an important occasion for networking, engineers and product marketers have seized the opportunity to join the conversation about IoT industry-related speech & questions.
3. Tuino & other IoT development kits
IoT development kits, such as Hemargroup’s Tuino, specifically designed for IoT solutions, have become a great part of the Internet of Things showcase in Nuremberg, as Tuino’s technology has been applied to show funny demo-applications such as “over the air” ping-pong games among computers, along with the latest Virtual Reality applications.
4. Higher standards, higher competition
This year’s exhibition has seen many new participants, as many Asian companies and visitors joined the event: a sign of EW’s ever growing importance and the increasing competition in the IoT market.
Nonetheless, smaller companies and startups at the beginning of their IoT experience should not be scared: Embedded World stays approachable for those companies, big and small, that are looking for a sweet niche-spot and development location side-by-side with the bigger players in the IoT market.
The tradeshow has in fact drawn the attention of big companies such as IC-producers, distributors, telecom entities and other players, with many new IoT product launches, making this EW edition greater than ever.
5. Europe as the top-level developer
A great push towards innovation and financial growth through the world of electronics has been the leitmotif of the 2018 Embedded World edition. Being a big space, it is providing visibility to European-level applications and players, clearly as a reaction to the past year’s R&D crisis and to let the IoT European industry rise again at an international level of competition.
