Description:
This subtopic focuses on information technology innovations that will improve the performance or functionality of mobile devices and devices that operate in resource-constrained environments - such as in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. While there is some overlap with other subtopics, proposals submitted to this subtopic should be focused on innovations specifically intended for these platforms.
Examples of relevant technical fields include (but are not limited to): location technology; image recognition and processing; video processing; speech recognition and generation; translation services; gesture and expression recognition and processing; biosignal processing; crowdsourced storage; crowdsourced processing; peer-to-peer device networking; user/device collaboration (e.g. device anticipating and addressing a user's needs); device - cloud architecture; data analytics and data processing to facilitate the Internet of Things (IoT)s; mobile commerce; vehicle-based computing platforms.
