Acerca da velocidade com que a IoT se está a desenvolver

Há dias o Miguel Pires chamou-me a atenção para a velocidade com que a IoT se está a desenvolver:

"Walking CES, you see hundreds of manufacturers from Shenzhen promoting the building blocks of the IoT. Technologies like fabric sensors — which only months ago were freshly released from secret university labs and lauded on tech blogs — can now be had at scale from China. Barriers to entry crumble fast. What remains for IoT companies are attention, adoption, and data."
