If you download our white paper (http://www.wi-fi.org/file/connect-your-life-wi-fi%C2%AE-and-the-internet-of-everything-2014), page 9 includes a list of Wi-Fi enabled IoE devices that are available now. They range from thermostats and lighting, to home security systems, appliances and automotive applications. Wi-Fi is a versatile technology that can handle a range of tasks, from transferring very small amounts of data at very low power to high-definition multimedia. One of Wi-Fi’s sweet spots for IoE is in the smart home and automotive applications, where it is already connecting a variety of applications. Many of these types of devices are connected to a power source, so power consumption is not an issue with them. With improvements in Wi-Fi power consumption and battery technology, we expect you’ll see a very wide range of Wi-Fi-connected IoE applications across home and industrial segments emerge over the next few years.
