This document discusses the convergence of man, machine, and the internet through various technologies over the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries including implantable pacemakers, GPS trackers, baby monitors, activity trackers, and intelligent assistants like JARVIS. It then discusses predictions for the future in 2029 with vehicles that can self-diagnose and communicate with service centers, public transportation that communicates to optimize traffic flow, and smart cities where vehicles and infrastructure can communicate to optimize services. Finally, it discusses current Internet of Things technologies including a device to help farmers predict milk production and a cycling navigation tool.

■ Smart Cities
● Vehicles communicate with city infrastructure
● Changing signal lights “on-demand”; Light energy optimization
● Advise authorities of bad roads, signal need for repair
● Infrastructure health assessments
● Report impending structural problem: Increased building / bridge vibration
■ Natural Resources
● Distributed utilization of valuable resources: Water & Energy
● Monitor quality of water & quantity of consumption
● Controlled distribution during drought to meet community’s essential needs
● Early detection of damaged water delivery infrastructure

Silent Herdsman
■ The technology solution taking the guess work out of milk production and enables farmers across the UK
to accurately predict their milk production for each year
A Cycling Device
■ A navigation tool targeting the cyclist community. It aims at simplified planning routes, discovering new
ones, and riding and sharing them in a pleasant way
