Joshua Marinacci tells us what he's been thinking about in terms of the future of the Internet of Things. How will the future look when every object is networked? Do we need to look to Isaac Asimov's Laws of Robotics?

The Internet of Things and the Laws of Robotics

Humans are social creatures using communications that are ‘regulated’ by trust, ethics, social systems and law. Our world of interactions and networks is increasingly complex and automated. What happens when events and decisions become too fast for us to perceive, let alone control? Professors Huw Price and Murray Shanahan join Dr Jonathan Cave and Dr Hermann Hauser.

The Internet of Things and the boundaries of humanity

<p>At our <a href="http://www.oscon.com/oscon2013">OSCON conference</a> this summer, <a href="http://radar.oreilly.com/jbruner">Jon Bruner</a>, <a href="http://radar.oreilly.com/reneed">Renee DiResta</a> and <a href="http://radar.oreilly.com/jennw">I</a> sat down with <a href="https://twitter.com/aallan">Alasdair Allen</a>, a hardware hacker and O'Reilly author; <a href="https://twitter.com/joshmarinacci">Josh Marinacci</a>, a researcher with Nokia; and <a href="https://twitter.com/tsmuse">Tony Santos</a>, a user experience designer with Mozilla. Our discussion focused on the future of UI/UX design, from the perils of designing from the top down to declining diversity in washing machines to controlling your car from anywhere in the world.

The Internet of Things should work like the Internet

Hold your books and costume jewelry close because they may not survive the connected device revolution, according to Rob Coneybeer of Shasta Ventures. In a conversation on this week’s podcast he and I had a fun conversation about what devices might disappear, what objects might stay analog and what devices get more intelligent as we embed connectivity and sensors into more things. He expanded on his thinking from an earlier blog post, and we covered a huge range of products, from the future of the kitchen to clothing and building materials.

Coneybeer provided insights not only into what he thought, but how he came to his conclusions, so anyone interested in how to divvy up the world of consumer products should listen to his segment. Before he went on, Kevin and I broke down the week’s news, which included Target’s move into the home automation space, AT&T’s big bet on the connected car and a new product from Honeywell that is straight out of the movies. Check out the video below. I kind of want one in my home. Finally, we cover out 5-minute review of a web site called SmartHomeDB that smart home lovers will want to bookmark.

Episode 8: Which devices will the internet of things drive to extinction?

Pretty soon every item in your home will be connected to the internet and everything you need will happen automatically. At least, that's what all the nerds who are buying internet-connected refrigerators are saying. Anyway, this week we talk about the Internet of Things, Tom's obsession with having a "connected home" and we speak with a very special robot guest. Also, Tim's cab driver has a run-in with the police and we try to order cashews just by talking into thin air.

The Internet Of Things

With the dawn of VR, AR, and IoT, how will things change for designers? What opportunities could lie within these emerging technologies? In this episode, we speculate on the possibilities and implications that the changing technological landscape could bring.

"I think that there are a lot of parallels or things that we're doing well in the digital space that aren't being solved in the physical space, with appliances or anything else. But what we're going to find with something like Augmented Reality or Virtual Reality is that we can start merging the two together." — Geoff at 40:36

Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, & the Internet of Things

The Achilles heel of the internet turns out to be all the stuff that is connected to it.

Attack of the Internet of Things

Smart TVs, refrigerators, cars, and houses—the internet of things refers to the networking of all the devices in our lives, as they gather data and interact with one another, apparently to make our lives easier. How will this augmented connectivity affect the way we live? If government agencies or hackers can potentially access the data our devices gather, what will become of privacy? Josh and Ken get smart with renowned computer scientist Carl Hewitt, editor of "Inconsistency Robustness (Studies in Logic)."

In this episode of the SuperDataScience Podcast, I chat with the Senior Consultant of Data Science at b.telligent, Dr. Andreas Hopfgartner. You will discuss the "Internet of Things", Sensor Data, and their integration into our daily lives; you will also know the different skills, techniques and the future of some of the tools used in Data Science; and also learn a systematic and structured approach to breaking into a Data Science career.
