This document discusses the rise of connected objects and connected places. It notes that there will be over 12.5 billion connected devices by 2015, more than the world's population. Connected objects should be able to sense the world, share data, be exchanged between people, and be designed sustainably. Connected places will become ecosystems where people, objects, and services interact seamlessly. Successful design of connected objects requires seamlessly connecting the physical and digital worlds, creating relationships between users and products, realizing new business models, and considering ecosystems from the start.
