Internet of Everything

On August 18 at Petterino’s in downtown Chicago, Dan Michaud (Senior Technology Consultant at ARUP) gave a fascinating presentation entitled “The Internet of Everything”.  Dan’s presentation discussed both the history as well as the present and future of internet incorporation into the building and facilities environment.  Dan informed the audience that the soon every capital item at your facilities will be connected to the web. 

Look for Facilities Managers to be wearing the DAQRI SMART HELMET (pictured) to monitor sensors in real time for all of facilities equipment.  Dan encouraged the audience to embrace the new technologies but be very careful protecting the data collected.
