SMART CONNECTED PRODUCTS (SCP)
Умные подключённые продукты

A smart object is an object that enhances the interaction with not only people but also with other smart objects. Also known as smart connected products or smart connected things (SCoT), they are products, assets and other things embedded with processors, sensors, soft ware and connectivity that allow data to be exchanged between the product and its environment, manufacturer, operator/ user, and other products and systems. Connectivity also enables some capabilities of the product to exist outside the physical device, in what is known as the product cloud. The data collected from these products can be then analyzed to inform decision-making, enable operational effi ciencies and continuously improve the performance of the product.
«Nearly every product or service that begins with the word “smart” or “personalised”, every internet-enabled device, every “digital assistant”, is simply a supply-chain interface for the unobstructed fl ow of behavioural data on its way to predicting our futures in a surveillance economy».
