2014 IoT Predictions [Hobsbawm]

2014 IoT Predictions – from evrythng.com by Andy Hobsbawm

Excerpt:

TOOLS
We expect to see more simpler to use devices and toolkits (e.g. spark.io, wifi-based devices that you can plug, play, and code, etc), that are easier to embed in existing consumer electronics with less integration complexity. Also more home automation fueled by wifi modules that can be added to any existing device like the aforementioned Spark, the flyport and the Electric Imp.

Reassuringly, these are what we think of as ‘Web of Things’ rather than ‘Internet of Things’ examples, meaning they use open Web standards not closed protocols, such as REST APIs with HTTP over Wifi.

Javascript/node.js will show up on devices e.g. program your Raspberry PI directly with javascript, instead of lower-level, more complex/technical languages. Also, more DIY home automation based on the PI e.g. heimcontrol.js, or PI JS.
