1 Smart Systems: the key enabling technology for future IoT Roberto Zafalon Technology Programmes, Director R&D and Public Affairs, Italy STMicroelectronics IoT Large Scale Pilots Brokerage Workshop London 26 th June 2015

2 The Digital Explosion >44 Zettabytes 50 Billion x10 x <4 Zettabytes 13 Billion Yearly Data creation Devices A Zettabyte = Gigabytes

3 By 2020 the Internet traffic will shift dramatically! 3 Most of the IP traffic will originate from other than personal computers (PCs). Wi-Fi traffic will exceed wired traffic and Full HD video will generate more traffic than standard video. According to a recent report issued by Cisco, the number of connected devices (i.e. through IPv6 and evolution) will grow to some 50 billion devices by The internet traffic will get close to 44 Zettabytes (i.e. 10^21 bytes)! In the Football World Cup in Brazil (June 2014), the Video streaming and internet broadcasting have generated 4.3 Exabytes (i.e. 10^18 bytes) of IP traffic, which is 3X the monthly IP traffic typically generated by Brazil.

4 New Things to Augment Life 4 Smart City Reduce traffic congestion Better use of resources Improve security Smart Me Healthcare Empower patients Help physicians monitor and diagnose remotely Smart Car Reduce emissions Increase safety Save fuel Smart Me Wellness Help to lead healthier lives Optimize sports performance Early warning of illness Smart Home Make entertainment more interactive and immersive Increase comfort Save energy Smart Industrial & Smart Services Productivity gains Efficiency, agility, water and food.

5 Making Things Smarter 5 It used to tell you the time Now it tells you what to do And how you are doing They used to keep your feet warm Now they help you keep you and your feet fit It used to remind you of someone close to your heart Now it reminds you to take care of your heart And exactly what you doing They used to help you see clearly Now they help you to see more

6 Expanding to Make Things Smarter Beyond the Smartphone 6 Smart City Smart Home Smart Car Wearable

7 The IoT Opportunity 7 Augmented Things Thing Sense Process Mobile devices Connect Translate Power Source: ABI Research

8 The Internet of Things 8 Existing Things augmented New Things to augment life

9 MEMS are market driven New products for traditional markets 15% 10% 9 New products for new markets ST MEMS Microphone Market Share 5% 0% Traditional products for traditional markets Brand new STMicroelectronics 3mmx3mm package featuring a 3D digital gyroscope and accelerometer Chipworks Intel Realsense New products for traditional markets New Touchscreen technologies for flagship smartphones Source : IHS, ST

10 Key Factors to Serve the IoT Market 10 Platform ready solutions Providing integrated platforms to address vertical markets Innovation & product diversification Adapting existing technologies to new uses Developing new technologies Broad product portfolios Partnerships & (SW) Ecosystem Build-up new skills and competences Accelerate time to market Smart Systems Highly integrated features Ultra-low power devices Gathering the whole Supply Chain Win-Win business model

11 Internet of Every Things Scenario 11 Remote Monitoring Power Plant Home and Building Automation Smart Me Fab automation Smart Metering Smart Home Smart grid Renewable Energy Smart Street Lighting Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Smart Systems are in Personal Networks, Smart Grid, Smart Cities, Smart Me, converging Through Internet Of Every Things

12 Smart Systems have all the ingredients to enable IoT 12 Augmented Things in the IoT All the key technologies & products Sensors-to-cloud value chain Broad ecosystem, HW & SW Digital-security technologies Semiconductor technologies and high-volume production capabilities Sensors ULP Microcontrollers & Memories Ultra-low power connectivity Analog and mixed signal components Smart Energy management

13 ST is a key enabler of Smart Systems 13 ULP Microcontrollers & Memories Sensors Software Ultra-low power connectivity Smart Energy Management Analog and mixed signal components Security

14 Lowering the Barriers for Developers 14 Easier access to technology!? Device Prototype Form factor Device Final Device Idea Application Test SW Field Test Commercial SW Market Fast, flexible, affordable and based on commercial components

15 Set up the stage with ST s NUCLEO Every developer needs the tools and support to build a solution. Free on-line TOOLS and SUPPORT are instrumental to ST success in the mass-markets. OFFERING EXPANSION BOARD OFF THE SHELF 1 Craft the Exp Board -plugin eco-system, kind of silicon LEGOTM bricks and create an open hardware environment 2 Shared catalog of online documents and examples, enabling developers to bring ideas and innovation into silicon Magenta program - Global reaching strategy 15

16 Easy access to the SW Developers To increase our share in the mass market 16 Motion MEMS Environmental Sensors Ultra-low power connectivity Algorithms Sensor fusion Open Software License SW for single-use on specific target hardware (STM32 Nucleo Development Board) Click through license on website

17 Smart Sensor at the lowest power Flexibility Optimized for all system architectures 17 Application processor SW algorithms Always-on sensor systems. Must be ultra low power! Sensor HUB Sensors Hard-coded algorithms Data Fusion Hardware and Algorithms need to be individually optimized for ultra-low power Optimization at system level requires design that can be adapted to various architectures Building on ST s Open Software for sensors Power [w]

18 Ultra-low power Connectivity Connectivity 18 Ultra low-power Bluetooth connectivity solution Master and Slave Single Mode BLE (4.0) Network Processor. On chip non-volatile Flash memory allows OTA BLEstack upgrade. Stack qualified Plug-and-play WiFi modules Fully qualified and certified Easy entry to wireless for customers Spirit Transceiver for sub-1 GHz radios Very low power Flexible Multi-band transceiver Protocol stack Wireless M-BUS, 6LowPAN

19 Fostering the IoT s ecosystem 19 How can semiconductors assist in developing standards? Doing industry alliances Best practices in Internet of Things privacy, security, and authentication Establish interoperability standards for devices Bringing complete IoT platform Create platforms for IoT including: hardware, software, tools for application development and integration, big data and service on the cloud.

20 Barriers to IoT s Adoption 20 Security concerns Regulation and compliance Standards Ease of use Ability to remotely manipulate physical assets Privacy violations & safety issues Security concerns escalate up! IoT implementations mandated by the governments Examples: ecall connected car in Europe Rail safety act in the US Smart grid mandates around the world Lack of standards Business is hesitant to invest in connecting assets Some of the early success stories in IoT have benefited from their ease of use e.g.: NEST by Google

21 Removing the Barriers Vertical integration Focus on few big funded pilot projects for vertical applications, such as healthcare, smart home, smart cities, industry 4.0 Could be good to consider Private-Public- Partnership (PPP) as done for the 5G or FI Standardization Need to move fast! Can help to protect some markets. US approach is to do a pilot first then an industry consortium makes the standard. Ecosystem Gathering the full chain: semiconductor companies, OEM, security provider, service provider, end to end integrator Should allow partnerships outside EU when it makes sense. Regulation EU shall play a big role as an enabler or a show stopper! Especially for Healthcare, Smart home and grid

22 Lowering the entry gap to access high tech! Startup and SME 22 EPoSS ST is among the founding fathers since 2005 ECSEL JU ST is part of the ECSEL JU Governing Board since the very start, on may 2014 AIOTI ST is member of Alliance for Internet of Things Innovation (AIOTI)

23 The IoT has the potential to connect tens of billions of objects to internet generating demand for sensors, microcontrollers, data connectivity and energy management. Conclusions 23 ST has all the ingredients for the IoT and is winning today in the first high volume markets that have emerged. In 10 years the internet technology will become invisible; completely integrated into our everyday lives in a way that is much less intrusive and with a truly human interface.
