IoT devices offer huge potential for component manufacturers, and more

Lyon, France – June 5, 2014 – From $9.5B in 2014 to $46B in 2024, the Internet of Things (IoT) device market will represent close to 15% of all data processing.”IoT devices offer huge potential for electronic component manufacturers, but this is clearly not where the value will stop. Most of the added value in IoT solutions will come from the processing of the generated data”, explains Dr Eric Mounier, Senior Technology & Market Analyst at Yole Développement. “In fact, the ratio between electronic components and data processing can reach 1:50 in certain long-term cases!” he adds.

The IoT is a multi-billion dollar market emerging from several different markets (i.e. industrial sensors, wearable electronics and home automation) which will see strong convergence in the next five years. Three industrial and service sectors will be integral to the valorization of this new market:
•         The electronics industry, which will manufacture the sensing devices
•         The communication and cloud data storage industry, which will handle data transmission, storage and processing
•         Service companies, which will valorize the data either through processing or by selling to a third party …
