Sound’s emerging IoT role
Could sound be a critical IoT tool?

Smart Disposables: Could This Be Birth of Internet of Everything?
Could EVERYTHING be “smart?” It may be happening sooner we thought, and with implications that are hard to fathom today.
That’s the potential with new technology pioneered by Shyam Gollakota, an assistant professor at the University of Washington. For the first time, it would let battery- and cordless-less devices harvest signals from Wi-Fi, radio, or TV to […]
Circular Company: Will Internet of Things Spark Management Revolution?
Could the IoT’s most profound impact be on management and corporate organization, not just cool devices?
