IoTSyS participated in the IoT challenge hosted by the IPSO alliance in Chicago at Sensor Expo 2014

IoTSyS made it to the finals of the IoT challenge. It was a very nice event in Chicago and very strong competitors. Several start-ups presented very innovative Internet of Things products and other universities (e.g. MIT) also participated. IoTSyS closely missed a top 3 place and was ranked number 4 of 10, which was a very nice result taking into account the strong competitors. The innovative concept of the project received a very positive response, main criticism point was the lacking market readiness as product.

The competition take place in parallel to the conference and all top 10 finalists had about 6 minutes to present the project and prototype to a selected experts commitee.
IoTSyS was demonstrated with a mobile IoT demo suitcase consisting of a home and building automation system based on heterogeneous technologies in a box + IPv6 enabled smart objects.
What made the event more a success, was the opportunity to present the project at the IoT pavilion at the sensor expo of the IPSO alliance with a table dedicated to IoTSyS.

The reach out was tremendous and several interested expo attendees stopped by and showed real interest in the project. So it was definitely a great opportunity to promote the open source project to a very high quality audience.
Finally, there was also some time left for sightseeing in Chicago :)
