For decades, the concept of the Internet of Things (IoT) has steadily transitioned from a futuristic vision to an everyday reality. When combined with military environments, IoT promises to revolutionize defence strategies, operational efficiency, and battlefield dynamics.
While the topic of IoT is not new, we explore in this document transformative intersections, revisiting both the foundational elements and emerging trends that will shape the future of military IoT. Coming back to the basics presenting and analysing core IoT components – semiconductors, sensors, energy, antenna, cyber-security, edge-computing – we aim to better understand how developments in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and wireless transmissions will enhance military capabilities.
Peppering the report with “what if” situations, we hope to project readers into different possible futures. These speculative elements challenge conventional thinking and inspire a forward-looking mindset. They encourage readers to envision how dual- or multiple-use products or functionalities might reshape military operations in unprecedented ways.
Join us on this journey through the past, present, and future of IoT in military contexts, where each technological breakthrough holds the potential to redefine our approach to security, efficiency, and reliability in the digital age.
