Here’s Your Quick Guide to All Things IoT at Mobile World Congress
At this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona which took place between February 27 to March 2, part of the discussions on the agenda was future innovations for the Internet of Things (IoT). At MWC 2017, Intel displayed how 5G will transform and improve all aspects of our daily lives such as in smart cities, connected homes, virtual reality and autonomous driving. They are delivering new technologies, and working with leaders in the industry on platforms, to realize the full promise of 5G. They had also announced a new category of ready-to-deploy commercial LTE-based devices via the Intel LTE IOT Quick Deployment (Intel LIQD) Program. AT&T will be the first major carrier to work with Intel.
One thing is clear: 5G is happening now and will mark an inflection point in our industry. It will connect billions of “things” that haven’t been connected before, bringing intelligence and data to cars, homes, buildings, factories, cities, infrastructure and more to transform the way we live.
From the road to 5G and automated driving to smart cities and connected homes, MWC 2017 will be chock-full of transformational technology. Here's a preview of how things will line up with the new innovations on IoT.

From the road to 5G and automated driving to smart cities and connected homes, MWC 2017 will be chock-full of transformational technology. Here's a preview of how things will line up with the new innovations on IoT.
Automated Driving
Visit the autonomous driving demo to explore how the Intel 5G automotive platform and Intel Go automotive solutions enable an automated vehicle, in this case a BMW 740i, to sense the world around it. As the car moves to the center of the smart, connected and autonomous world, vehicles are increasingly learning to sense, reason and act to adapt to the real world. This experience will show how autonomous cars can learn from data (vehicle to network communication) and the experience of millions of cars (vehicle to vehicle communication), ultimately resulting in zero accidents and safer roads, more enjoyable commutes and reduced congestion in the world’s most polluted cities.
From a data stream emitting from a shark fin antenna and a holographic car outline to object detection and a smart traffic light, this experience offers a glimpse at how automated vehicles are driving us toward the smart cities of the future. Swing by to experience the road ahead.
Smart City
IoT represents a tremendous opportunity to shape the future and improve every life on this planet, with technologies from 5G emerging networks to cloud computing enabling smart cities to flourish. This will showcase Intel IoT ecosystem solutions, including:
- Bosch air quality monitoring, a mobile edge computing solution that will allow faster analytics at the edge allowing officials interpret changes in air quality and make immediate decisions.
- GE Light Pole, a platform for network densification in the emerging 5G world.
- City Beacon, a platform for network densification, client connectivity, network backhaul, situational awareness with security cameras and air quality sensors.
- First responder assistance using drones and more.
Come by to see how city neighborhood can be equipped with a number of connected 5G IoT networks, devices sensors and smart devices interacting with each other and reacting to environmental changes through edge and cloud analytics.
Smart & Connected Home
The 5G transformation ahead is leading to a fundamental re-architecting of the home network, bringing valuable innovation to users to eliminate the burdens many people experience with implementing smart homes today. Smart homes go beyond home automation or connecting devices to the cloud. The value of the smart home comes from addressing real human needs by easing the tasks of running a home, offering experiences that enrich daily life, and providing assurance that creates peace of mind. To be truly smart, a home must seamlessly interconnect diverse devices, services, and things throughout the home to become more.
At MWC 2017, part of the development is demonstrating a wide array of capabilities that include wireless broadband to the home, greater in-home Wi-Fi coverage, increased security and easy home automation.
