The kiosk even vends out your swipe card! I am sure you will be quite happy about how smoothly the check-in went, but the best is yet to come. The kiosk displays a QR code during the process, which you scan using your smartphone. Instantly, the smartphone connects to the hotel Wi-Fi, downloads an app, and opens it.

Challenger Banks: Business Drivers and Success Imperatives The IoT Connection We should know that our "smart connected world" of today has had some really smart predecessors, such as the remote-controlled gates and doors in buildings, or the embedded systems and fuzzy logic controllers that gained wide attention when smart refrigerators were introduced. Our smartphone was one of the latest additions to that list. But what differentiates today’s smart technology is how devices have started talking to each other and what gives our smartphones that "extra power" to control and personalize things around us. And that is made possible thanks to one technology; the "Internet of Things", or simply IoT, which helps design an ecosystem for many devices to connect and process information "on the edge" over a common network-the internet-that helps simplify, yet speed up processes and greatly improve efficiency! Smart Room Digital Assurance-Key considerations It is never an overstatement to say a smart room, or a smart hotel is incomplete without IoT. At the same time, IoT enabled implementations present their own set of new challenges related to security, privacy, and reliability, not to mention performance and integration related challenges. From an IoT perspective, an effective and fool-proof digital assurance approach requires the following key considerations: Cigniti’sdigital assurance capabilities and IoT testing expertise span many focus areas, from security to integration, and put together years of experience, a team of highly skilled resources, and a robust testing infrastructure to help its clients attain confidence in their IoT-driven solution implementation.
