s729 - Design for Connectivity- Addressing the Challenges of Smart, Connected Product Design

Designing & producing smart connected products adds a number of new challenges to the traditional product development process. More stakeholders are involved from more engineering disciplines, necessitating more integration, new strategies and, of course, Designing for Connectivity. In this session, we will be covering the design practices & value of data from a designer’s perspective. We’ll learn how to both plan for and find/use the data necessary in your ‘whole solution’. Assess what data you will need and how this can be planned and integrated into your development process. As well as looking at how companies today are using smart connected product design to replace assumptions with facts so they can solve problems and innovate quicker. We’ll be providing several customer examples:
