Today we live in a world where everything around us is smart -- whether it is smartphones, smart TVs or even smart homes where everything is connected digitally.
And slowly, we’re progressing to a world where our entire cities are smart, connected on a deeper level.
smartphone chipmaker Qualcomm has announced an IoT Services Suit to offer end-to-end IoT as a Service or IoTaaS solutions for helping to transform smart cities and connected global spaces across the world.
The suite consists of plug-and-play solutions including the hardware, the silicon that goes inside them as well as software and platform integration. For instance, Infinite Computer Solutions -- a member of Qualcomm Smart Cities Accelerator Program Ecosystem -- offers support for IoT Suite platform layer with its Zyter SmartSpaces Platform. The platform makes use of Qualcomm’s chip-based subsystems to support middleware, data operations cloud services, offer better security and user experience as well as for analytics collective intelligence and AI.
Building a smart, connected city
With the help of IoT Suite, Qualcomm helps ecosystem members to offer smart applications as a service in a variety of fields. For example, Smart cities and spaces as a service that offers smart lighting, signage and parking solutions.
Education as a service allows school districts across the US uninterrupted access to ecosystem members, OneScreen and HoverCam to allow smart classrooms with hybrid learning settings.
