The not-too-distant future will be full of Internetconnected devices, from watches to cars to suitcases, according to Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor David Rose, and they will transform our everyday lives.
"It will shock all of us, the amount of ... connected things in the next 10 years," Rose said yesterday at MITX's FutureM conference.
A professor at the MIT Media Lab and CEO of Ditto Labs, Rose has outfitted his house with custommade smart devices, including an umbrella that lights up when the forecast calls for rain and a "doorbell" that chimes when someone is 10 miles, 1 mile and 100 feet from home. He is also working on a coffee table that uses LED lights to track who is dominating a conversation — something he designed for his energetic 6-year-old and shy 11-year-old. Rose said such devices soon will be standard.
"The norm will be connected," he said.
Known as the "Internet of Things," connected appliances, lightbulbs and wearables — including watches such as the Apple Watch — have exploded in recent years.
Charles Teague, CEO of Boston-based weight loss app Lose It!, said data about users gathered by connected devices such as smart watches offers an opportunity to tailor health and fitness apps.
"We think the more ways there are to understand what's happening with the user, the better," he said.
The three-day FutureM conference, which brings together industry and technology professionals to examine the future of marketing, concludes today at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.
