Facts, Trends and Vision

More connected things than people in 2020.

Nike+ has registered more than 5,6 billion steps.

Most of cell phones in Spain are smartphones.

Analysts predict a global population of 8 billion people on the planet with 50 billion of connected devices by 2020.

Since its launch in 2006, the Nike Plus platform has registered 5,6 billion steps burning more than 662 million calories in the process.

Statistics show that the market penetration of smartphones in Spain has reached 80% in 2013 increasing from 59% in 2012 and 39% in 2011.



For a smarter life …

Keep streets clean

Products like the cellular communication enabled Smart Belly trash use real-time data collection and alerts to let municipal services know when a bin needs to be emptied.

My city

Light your home in a new way

Web enabled lights like the Phillip's Hue can be used as an ambient data displays. Glow red when my bus is 5 minutes away. These multi-functional lights can also help you to reduce electricity use or help to secure your home while you are away by turning your lights on and off.

My home

Remember to take your meds

GlowCaps fit prescription bottles and via a wireless chip provide services that help people stick with their prescription regimen, from reminder messages, all the way to refill and doctor coordination.

My body



To gain in efficiency …

My cityMy homeMy body

Find a parking place

With the use of installed sensors, mobile apps, and real-time web applications, cities can optimize revenue, parking space availability and enable citizens to reduce their environmental impact by helping them quickly find an open spot for their cars

Get the most of your meds

The ingestible pill sensor is powered by contact with your stomach fluid and communicates a signal that determines the timing of when you took your meds and the identity of the pill.

Heat your home efficiently

Smart thermostats like the Nest use sensors, real-time weather forecasts, and the actual activity in your home during the day to reduce your monthly energy usage by up to 30%, keeping you more comfortable, and offering to save you money on your utility bills
