Executive Summary
The vision of the Internet of Things (“IoT”), in which Internet connectivity
is extended to huge numbers of “things” in the real world, promises totransform our ability to process information about the real world andinteract with real-world objects electronically.In the Internet of Things vision, we can find lost keys or wallets, activatea coffee machine before we get out of bed, turn on our air conditionerfrom our car, receive alerts when our dishwasher leaks, and much more.
This report overviews the research & development that is making theInternet of Things vision real, at major companies & start-up companies.Research underway will surprise even those familiar with the field:Apple's innovative communication method, ZTE's comprehensiveresearch program, Cisco's research on sensor data aggregation andsearch, IBM's research in cognitive radio, and much more.Active IoT R&D breaks into categories: connected sensors, connectedevery-day objects and connected appliances. Some make the “things”interactive, but most make them ambient, interacting only by wireless.Many significant technical challenges are being researched, includingconnectivity, protocols, addressability, discoverability and security.

Personal versus Wide AreaNetwork Connectivity
There are three primary approaches to how IoT “things” connect:
1. Directly to the Internet with their own IP address, or
2. Using a router’s internal addresses (NAT), or
3. Via another wireless protocol to an Internet-connected hub or bridge
Each approach has its own technical challenges:
1. Full Internet connectivity requires IPv6 to connect a massive number ofthings, requires an approach to discoverability and lookup, and requires
security for accessing each thing.
2. Using internal addresses still requires an approach to discoverability.
3. Using other wireless protocols via an Internet-connected hub requires thatthe hub handle all access and routing.
We will see this distinction underlying many of the technical issuesthat are addressed in IoT R&D, including addressability,discoverability, security and more.

Google R&D related toInternet of Things
Google is researching a variety of technology areas related to Internet
of Things. This includes a number of areas not traditionally associatedwith Google.
This is in addition to their more mainstream work on Android, whichGoogle and others are orienting to be the operating system for IoT
devices. Google sees Android smartphones connecting over short-range wireless with devices in the home or office, to access data,control devices, and share media. They are also working to embedAndroid in televisions and other appliances.

Android@Home (Android OpenAccessory API)
Android@Home is Google’s platform enabling
Android to control external devices oraccessories. The Android device is able torecognize external devices, interact with them,and launch specialized apps for them.
Google has also released a hardware
reference design, based on Arduino (above),for accessories that will interact with Android.
In addition to accessories, Google is focusedon controlling home systems, meters,appliances, media devices and more.
Google has been quiet about Android@Homesince introducing it in 2011, but it was recentlyre-introduced in 2013’s Android 4.2.2. update.

Google Project with DataSensing Lab
Google and the O’Reilly Data Sensing Lab are also working with
Arduino boards to deploy simple sensors with a mesh network to relaydata from far-away sensors to sensors that have network access. Themesh network is managed by Etherios’s Device Cloud platform.
Their sensors include pressure sensors that detect people walking,
thermometers, sound levels, air quality sensors and more.They have also developed a cloud-based data processing platformcalled Pipeline to process and route the data appropriately. TheirPipeline is build on top of Google’s App Engine, Cloud Storage, Task
Queue and BigQuery engine.Google’s primary work on this project is the software side, enablingthe processing of huge quantities of sensor data.

Networks ConnectingDevices to Sensors
Google is researching the routing of queries from phones and other
devices, to sensors, where these queries are routed over ad hocshort-range wireless networks via intermediate network nodes.
Google’s vision is clearly of a world where people use mobile devicesto access data from distributed sensors, some of which are near the
users, and some of which are further away.Google is also researchinghow a centralized systemcan store results of sensor
queries, and re-use themfor future queries for thesame geographical area.

Google Research in SensorNetworks for Object Tracking
Google is researching ad hoc sensor
networks, in the context of asset tracking.In their approach, sensor transceiversreceive signals from wireless tags, andrelay the messages received in an ad hoc
fashion through other transceivers.It appears that the methods described inthis patent filing for asset tracking can beequally-well applied to tracking cellphones
or other forms of tags worn by people, asthey move around a site.

Xively (formerly Pachube)
Xively, originally called
Pachube, is an on-linedatabase service thatenables connected sensornetworks to upload data
which can then beaccessed and processedby applications.
They claim to be receivingmillions of data points daily.
They are working with ARMto connect ARM MBEDwith the Xively back-end.

SmartThings
SmartThings sells an IoT hub and a variety of sensors and devices
that attach to it. These include tags that can be attached to keychainsand other small objects, power outlets, motion sensors, moisturesensors, door open/closed sensors, sirens, thermometers, pressureand vibration sensors, accelerometers, and more.
Their wireless communication can
reach “things” up to 300 feet (90m),but uses mesh networking to enablethings further away to communicatethrough intermediate things.
Each hub can control up to a hundred
things. In addition to devices thatSmartThings sells, their hub caninteract with other ZigBee-enabledproducts, such as door locks,water flow controls, and more.
