John and I sat down together one day to research and brainstorm this question. But what about that final layer? What’s the current thinking on how data from “things” can be collected, distributed and exploited? And what are the current use cases and future possibilities driving this area? This blog contains plenty of information on how BlackBerry 10 devices can work with sensors and peripherals. The cloud is where massive amounts of data, collected by hordes of IoT connected mobile computers, will be sent for analysis and exploitation.

There are many layers to the IoT onion, including connected “things” such as sensors and NFC or Bluetooth connected devices and a BlackBerry 10 devices interfacing with those “things.” But there’s another layer in the IoT onion: the cloud. How? With applications that use data collected from our physical world in an intelligent manner, which enriches the user’s experience and makes genuinely new things possible. You may also be familiar with our concept of “ Sense, Understand and Adapt.” BlackBerry smart phones are mobile computing devices that can be connected to the physical world and its contents (“things”) in many exciting ways. IoT is more than just a peripheral (no pun intended!) topic for us here at BlackBerry. You may have read articles here in the BlackBerry Developer Blog written by John Murray and myself about topics like Bluetooth and NFC, and noted our occasional reference to “the Internet of Things,” or IoT.
