"If you have a friend with a mobile phone, you expect to be able to call, text, and email no matter what network they're on. That's the starting point for consumer expectations of connected devices in the home," said David Bercovich, VP, North America, AlertMe. "Home controls platforms need to take on the complexity of controlling multiple devices based on personalized rules and intelligent automation that simplify the end-user experience. The value of the connected home ecosystem will increase exponentially as more devices are addressable and interoperable on the same platform."
"Cloud device virtualization is an important development because it solves three critical problems facing consumer product brand owners," said Shane Dyer, President, Arrayent, Inc. "Virtualization enables the lowest-cost hardware possible because device complexity can be pushed to the cloud and on to smartphones. Second, virtualization makes interoperability among devices using different LAN technologies, such as Wi-Fi and ZigBee, possible. Third, virtualization can enable devices to connect to different application owner clouds, such as a home energy management company, retailer, or a security company."
