Vertical solutions will not support a complex ecosystem

! Few consumers choose a single brand for every product ! High licensing fees limit deployment ! Proprietary software drives increased development costs
(while reducing flexibility and limiting future use cases)

! Many open frameworks require high hardware BOM


2013 Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. All rights reserved.
12

Needed: an open, widely available connectivity framework


! Enables devices to communicate with
Easy discovery Easy interoperability Enables cloud & proximal connectivity Across device types, OEMs, HW, OS

! Addresses widest range of devices


Little processing & memory requirements Distributed under open source license

! Forward-compatible
Open source allows rapid evolution Ability to contribute to the software roadmap

13

Todays reality: one app per device or brand

! Apps are an excellent solution for enabling the consumer-facing IoE


Rich device interaction beyond the limitations of physical UI Expanded control with lower bill of materials Easier user experience Higher customer satisfaction/lower support cost
