This pretty much reiterates my little building automation example that I used when I, Was attempting to explain how a platform is the glue that pulls all of these pieces together in an IoT system. That they had to say was, the demand for energy-efficient solutions, enhanced security, increased venture capital funding, and constant need for improving the standards of individuals has led to the development of the building automation market. Building automation, which started with wired technology, has now entered the era of wireless technology with these technologies such as ZigBee, Z-wave, EnOcean, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, Smart, Bluetooth low energy revolutionizing the market. The growing awareness towards energy conservation, stringent legislations, and building directives, promotion of numerous smart grid technologies, and the availability of a number of open protocols are further driving the growth of the building automation market. Device types, Got occupancy sensors, daylight sensors, thermostats, cameras, power meters, locks, Smoke and gas detectors, Lighting and control actuators. What are the kind of sensors and actuators can you think over that might be deployed in, Building for building automation? So we see the same trend here. These numbers are in US billions of dollars. $18.5 billion 2016 was the estimate, again, platform, software, and services. It took the lion's share with hardware down here, crawling along, but growing, [LAUGH] and capping out at almost $100 billion US in 2022. And opportunity, opportunity, opportunity, in platform, software, and services space. I put that Wow in there. [LAUGH] This has grown by 32%, which is quite a bit. And also moving from, Roughly 20 units right here. In 2016 from $20 billion almost up to a $100 billion. So there's a tremendous amount of opportunity in that space. It predict the EnOcean technology will grow at the highest rate in this time period from 2016 to 2022 at 29.1, Compound per annual growth rate. Cellular, Is going to cap out at $97 billion almost $100 billion in 2022. $80 billion for ZigBee and Ethernet is ubiquitous, we're still going to see it, it's not like I don't believe Ethernet is going to go away overnight, cabled solutions. EnOcean is really cool, we'll talk about that later. NFC is near-field communications like we use on our phones to pay for things, all that tap to pay. Put your finger on there, it's near-field communication, and Bluetooth, because they're extremely prevalent, as well. Well, we'll see there's others also, And some of those fall into this category, here that they just lumped all those other ones together. I'm really intrigued by EnOcean, and you'll see why when we get there. Here they have them broke out individually, ZigBee. The end of the forecast period is $257 million US, Ethernet's 124, cellular 120, EnOcean 157, and then the near-field communication and the others are relatively small. But near field and Bluetooth, excuse me, and others pretty significant, I'm up $4 billion. Sorry, million, got the wrong units here. Gotta look at my slide closer when before I start speaking the units, so. But we'll look at some of these other ones, Coming up. I included this one in here just in terms of millions of units, Just for you to get an idea of what the analyst thought the millions of unit volume were for these various technologies. Just there for information for you. >> This is Norm, and this is Sonia. Both buildings are similar, but one has an advantage that is helping businesses around the world save time, money, and the environment. What's the difference? Sonia is a smart building. [MUSIC] What makes Sonia a smart building? It's a system that collects and makes sense of thousands of sensors, generating data all over the building. These sensors collect all kinds of information. Things like, energy usage, space utilization, and occupant productivity. Providing better insight and control over a broad range of systems that span the entire building. But it's not the sensors that make a building smart, it's the ability to process and learn from all the data those sensors provide. Take a typical day in Sonia's world. Sonia monitors the entire building, everything from elevators to heating and cooling, room usage, and of course, the coffee machine. Sonia can see what areas are drawing the most energy throughout the day, and suggest ways to remedy inefficiencies, reducing utility costs. Sonia also knows which areas of the building are more frequently used. And can plan an optimized space utilization and maintenance based on work schedules. [MUSIC] Which is great, considering 39% of workers prefer flexible workspace and don't necessarily need a desk everyday. [MUSIC] Sonia also works with the building's occupants, providing personalized comfort regardless of location. [MUSIC] Custom workspace and collaboration environments, and guidance to your next meeting. [MUSIC] And all of this works together, because of an integrated data system that orchestrates not just the individual systems, but the building as a whole. Improving performance and comfort across the board, which is good for you, but it's also really good for the planet. [MUSIC] Many buildings, like Norm, aren't connected yet and don't have these features, but smart building technology can be implemented in existing structures. [MUSIC] You can even connect multiple buildings and pull everything together into one system, creating new efficiencies across your entire business. So buildings like Norm can be connected, just like Sonia. Say hello to the new Norm. Discover how Microsoft's IoT technologies are creating smart buildings today. [MUSIC] >> Again, it's quite a bit of opportunity that I see in this space to those of you that are in the embedded system engineering track and working towards your degree. There is a lot of opportunity in this space. Businesses are looking to save cost, reduce, Their overhead. And managing a building in a smarter way enables them to have more disposable income to provide to their stockholders. For instance, to pay out to their employees as bonuses, It's important. I see a lot of opportunity there.
