| | Featured Articles IoT Security and privacy concerns are top of mind for any knowledgeable developer or implementation company in the industry. Now, a new report from the Online Trust Alliance (OTA) says that 100 percent of them are available through good practice, at least on the consumer side. Smart buildings are the... ahem…building blocks of Smart City infrastructure, but the market for implementation has been lagging. This is due to significant fragmentation of the solutions space and sluggardliness of facilities managers, mostly, according to a new report from ABI Research.

Audi recently announced that it will release their first vehicles equipped with the ability to receive information from traffic lights. Power is an issue for all IoT supplications, but it doesn't have to be with a huge thermonuclear generator just a few million miles away. I'm talking about the sun, of course.
