Connected Devices
Vision & Goals
Our goals are firstly invite and grow participation, then ship examples of prototyping for the future (# experiments shipped), which should lead to some measure of growing our influence (mentions by influencers).
Current Projects
Here are a few of the projects making their way through our product innovation process, with many more in the pipeline:
- Project Link aims to be your own, personal user agent for the smart home, creating a web of things that is completely yours.
- Project Vaani aims to be the open, flexible, customizable voice interface - A natural way to interact with connected devices around us.
- Sensor Web aims to find the easiest path from sensors to open data so contributors can collaboratively use sensors to get great detail of understanding their living environment.
- Project Smart Home offers a middle ground between “in a box” and DIY solutions to enable modular, affordable hardware.
- Project SmartTV is where we're building a web ecosystem for TV and the connected devices of tomorrow.
- WebVR is bringing high performance virtual reality to the open web.
- FlyWeb is enabling phones to discover and interact with electronics around them without relying on the cloud.

Product Innovation Process
The Connected Devices organisation is refocusing its activities on the Internet of Things. We are also changing our working practices such that we are not all necessarily 'riding the same train but ride multiple trains' i.e. parallel product initiatives. To help us manage the new Product Innovation activities, we are now testing a lightweight process.
