I have been quoted a couple of times on some Belden blogs as a subject matter expert on Industrial Internet of Things.
Here’s one:
IT and OT Must Adapt for the IoT – 13 Experts Share How
And the other is:
The IoT Convergence: How IT and OT Can Work Together to Secure the Internet of Things

Looks like it.
Gary, One thing I’ve noticed is that it the technology, even for hobbyists, is getting less and less expensive. Here’s a nice infographic of a <$5 microcontroller/wifi/internet enabled device that has got the DIY crowd really excited– https://magic.piktochart.com/output/7040756-introducing-esp8266 .
Thanks for the link. There are some interesting hobbyist possibilities. Maybe something I can get my 8-yr-old grandson interested in as I teach him design in this area.
