Will talk about VSCP and IoT on the with the best, Paris conference 16/1 2016.
The world is «many», not «one», and it will always will be that way. Just as different cars drive on the same side of the road and adhear to the same rules, protocols and solutions in IoT and M2M must come to understandings that make them work beside each other and togheter. What we see today is efforts on standardizing the «roads» while we really need to standardize on how we «travel» on them. This is really no different then what HTML did for hypertext in the past and which made the world wide web a success. To take an example a temperature sent from a device must always be understood by a receiving device to be useful for it, which means it’s coding and its unit must be coded in a standard way. Obvious to us all maybe, but not something the IoT/M2M standardizing groups work with today.VSCP have solution for this and for device discovery, uniform configuration, self contained and serverless functionality, firmware updates and is free and open and will stay that way. It works equally well if commnication is through a cable or over the air and it makes sure that the sender and the receiver understands each other. In this talk I will pinpoint the problems and the trenfs and present one possible solution to the problem.
