Designer + Engineer

= IoT Magic

Breaking down silos and creating magic

(The event is a Talk + Workshop / Demo)

Born out of frustrations between a designer and an engineer, the IoT Service Kitwas created. The aim of the Kit is to bring designers, developers and business professionals out of their digital silos to ideate and play with IoT concepts in the real world. The IoT Servic Kit uses playfulness and clear communication to develop successful projects where the physical and the digital worlds merge. Join us and learn more about the development of the Kit and play around with it to make smarter and better IoT services faster than ever before.

Open-Source IoT Service Kit

Openness is the key of our future. This Open-Source kit was created for everyone who wants to explore IoT, and create successful digital services, in a fun and realistic way.

We are looking forward to hear your ideas on how can we expand this tool. We are also curious about the way you use it, and to see the Services you can create with it!

IoT raises new ethical challenges, demanding us to be more conscious about what we build. If you are curious about this Ethical IoT please visit the IoT Manifesto, and combine it with our kit.
