WCA General
Session
Next-Generation Wireless Gizmos and Gadgets
View Meeting Summary .pdf
Today,
most Internet connections are made via a computer.
The mainstay of tomorrow's Internet access is
likely to be wireless devices. Many new cell
phones include wireless LAN capability. Industrial,
consumer and environmental sensors will include
network monitoring as the norm. Wireless Internet
connected alarm systems are already common in
Europe. This shift will be made possible by
market demand, agreement on network standards,
and less costly and more power- efficient wireless
devices. Wireless devices will also perform
many valuable home and industrial tasks that
are independent of the Internet, yet use Internet
and wireless technology. Even parking meters
will rely on wireless networking!
This
month, the WCA has assembled a panel of visionaries
representing various aspects of wireless technology.
The
panel includes:
- Satya Mallaya, Director, Wireless and Personal Sphere, French Telecom
- Banny Banerjee, Senior Designer, for IDEO
