Opportunities in Digital Transformation enabled by FHE IOT Ecosystems

Digital revolution is upon us and Connected Devices as part of the digital transformation are getting ubiquitous. Integrating both the hardware data collection and analytics layers of the IOT ecosystem across different domains (smart retail, hospitality, health & safety) can help enhance the ROI of the solution. Some examples of such integration are discussed in this presentation to provide a window into the opportunities. While there are several subsystem components the presentation outlines opportunities and challenges for power and energy requirements enabling hardware especially leveraging current and future technologies in flexible hybrid electronics. FHE allows for opportunities where not only are the benefits of functional integration realized but potentially impact on easier manufacturing processes, reduced assembly steps and supply chain simplification is also possible. The emergence of 3d printed electronics for PCB manufacturing is presents unique opportunities for integrating flexible hybrids to realize complex designs.
