"Solving IoT Challenges using Peer to Peer Remote Access Connectivity" by Carsten Rhod Gregersen

Abstract
Connecting to and collecting data from devices across the Internet of Things (IoT) poses many challenges: Traversing firewalls, address allocation, address resolution, authentication, privacy, autonomy, flexibility, IPv4/IPv6 interoperability, ease of use - to name a few! In this talk we describe the workings of a technology that solves these issues by using a cloud server to mediate a direct peer to peer (P2P) connection between end-user devices to IoT devices, wherever the IoT device is deployed. The technology is similar to what you find in Skype, Teamviewer, Internet multiplayer games, etc. P2P connections offer many benefits in addition to solving the fundamental challenges listed above. Learn how these benefits can give your products a competitive edge. Understand challenges raised when connecting to the IoT, and how P2P connections can overcome them. Learn a simple method of bringing the benefits of remote connectivity to your products.

"Turning the Smartphone into a kick ass Remote Control" by Preben Thorø

Abstract
A modern smart phone has much more computing power and much larger screen resolution that desktop PCs had only a few years ago. Combining that with the fact that most phones have excellent communication interfaces and/or extension ports for further enhancements, it opens up a new world of making dedicated devices for controlling both industrial and consumer products of all kinds.

Explore the task of turning iPhones and Android devices into professional tools for the world’s largest pump manufacturer: The presentation will demonstrate the app, the dedicated hardware that was developed to make it possible, it will demonstrate how we managed to share test equipment for 20.000 Euros from multiple locations, a couple of built-in features to help providing first class support to professional users throughout the world, and more.
