After Microsoft Deal, What’s Left of Nokia Will Bet on Internet of Things

otherwise things don’t make sense. We are now talking about the idea of a programmable world. We are not just talking about a computing revolution as in the past; to me it reflects much more what will happen in your home, your connected car, with your wearable devices, and so on. No device now works alone. You use the same things from your laptop, your tablet, smartphone or whatever. Many of your smartphone apps already lose their value when they are not cloud connected. The same thing will be true in the future for other everyday objects.

If you believe in such a vision, as I do, then a lot of our technological assets will help in the future evolution of this world: global connectivity, our expertise in radio connectivity, materials, imaging and sensing technologies.

What are some examples of such technologies?

Bluetooth low-energy technology. Any modern sensing app which is connected to a smartphone will be using Bluetooth LE, a low-powered technology compatible with Bluetooth, for which much of the development was done in our labs. Other domains will be wearable sensors, such as e-Skin
