2 2 Wireless networks are almost universally available. 75% Miniaturization and integration are opening up new application areas. In 2015, 75% of the population was already connected to the internet By 2020, there will be around 20 billion connected devices*. 20 bn Increasing energy efficiency and capacity are prolonging battery life.

3 3 The Internet of Things is ready for your products. We bring them to life. No other technological development is likely to have such a dramatic and lasting impact on our business world as connecting products and devices via smart sensors. One of the players driving the Internet of Things (IoT) forward on a global scale is Bosch. Our extensive experience in electronics, sensor technologies, and software opens up completely new opportunities for your business. Your products and ideas 7 bn By 2016, Bosch has produced over 7 billion MEMS sensors. Bosch Connected Devices and Solutions Quantum leaps in computing power, device miniaturization, growing energy efficiency and the wide availability of wireless networks create an ideal basis for connecting an ever-increasing number of objects, devices and production systems to the Internet of Things. This paves the way for fully new benefits, applications and markets for your products. Having Bosch as your partner in this rapidly changing environment gives you a head start on the competition, as we are a global market leader in MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical system) sensors, one of the key technologies of the IoT. Our portfolio ranges from connected devices to end-to-end solutions for all fields of application, with a focus on Industry 4.0 & Logistics and Connected Mobility. Connected Devices With application-specific sensors and proprietary algorithms, our devices trans form raw data in real time into customer-relevant information. All application data is processed with low-power technology components, and is transmitted using the low-energy radio technology of your choice. In addition, we offer actuators for switching, controlling and automating your systems. Complete Solutions We can offer complete solutions including sensor devices, data transfer, and integration with cloud platforms and other services. Relevant information can be displayed in an app, or integrated into your company s backend system.this makes it possible to extend your existing product and service portfolios, and paves the way for new business models and revenue streams.

4 4 We bring things to life to enliven the industry. sense! A humidity sensor observes that the level of humidity in the process is rapidly decreasing. think! The sensor s intelligent software suspects that a water pump is malfunctioning. Sensors. Analysing the world with more than five senses. Tiny MEMS sensors monitor the physical environment of your product or system and transfer this information to the virtual world. Their microscopically fine structures can be used to measure acceleration, yaw rate, the earth s magnetic field, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, light, sound, and gas. The sensors are equipped with microcontrollers, miniature batteries and radio chips, and are intelligently programmed. Software and algorithms. Maximizing intelligence and battery lifetime. It s the software that makes our devices smart. Cutting-edge algorithms process the large amounts of information generated by our sensors, and ensure that only fully relevant results are provided to the user or the connected system. Thanks to context awareness, our devices only need to operate a subset of sensors at a specific point of time. This allows us to provide products with highly extended battery lifetimes and enables performance that is simply not possible with standard offthe-shelf sensors. Enormous experience in tiny sensors As the world s largest supplier of MEMS sensors, Bosch produces more than one billion sensors a year.

5 5 connect! The integrated wireless chip connects to the service application. act! Service personnel replace the damaged pump before process efficiency can decrease any further. Connectivity. Anytime. Anywhere. Via any available technology. In the Internet of Things, connectivity is the key. Each application area has its own requirements. These depend on the volume, flow, and speed of the sensor data, as well as on the distance over which it needs to be transmitted to its destination. Choosing the most suitable connectivity technology requires a deep knowledge of existing wireless solutions and future technologies. Experience in the telecommunications industry gives us a strong competitive advantage. Taking action. Tending to issues before they turn into downtime. The information provided by sensors and transmitted by chips initiates action in the physical world: Service staff learns about a malfunction before a machine or entire plant has to stop production. Process parameters adapt to a changed humidity level to compensate the new conditions. Bosch has extensive expertise in connectivity products enabling predictive maintenance and provides customized solutions for all requirements.

6 6 Sensors wirelessly gather machine performance data on a continuous basis. The software recognizes early on when maintenance is necessary, preventing unexpected downtime. Packages with integrated sensors that register acceleration, humidity, temperature and light optimize the flow of goods. The software documents rough handling, falls, moisture, unusual temperatures, or opening of the packaging and transmits all the data wirelessly to the logistics center. Industry 4.0 & Logistics. Efficiency, produc tivity and control every step of the way. Wirelessly connected production is the way of the future. It enables machines to monitor and optimize themselves and production systems to follow instructions given by the products that they are manufacturing. Small batches can be manufactured cost-effectively and with optimal capacity utilization. In addition, we supply you with logistics processes that monitor themselves. Integrated sensors make it possible to track the location, flow, and condition of goods and vehicles at all times. Bosch develops and uses end-to-end-solutions and powerful devices that enable such efficient processes. This way, we are transforming from a lead user to a lead provider. Application Examples Condition monitoring: Continuous monitoring of machines relevant state parameters to optimize efficiency, uptime and utilization. Predictive maintenance: Proper monitoring of operating conditions is essential for optimizing maintenance. Planned downtimes significantly increase overall equipment efficiency (OEE), and make production planning more flexible. Logistics: Smart sensor devices monitor goods across the supply chain. The increase in transparency results in a reduction of transport damages and an improvement in quality. Benefits Reduced maintenance cost Increased overall equipment efficiency Easy-to-use plug & play solution Optimized planning of maintenance process One-stop solution including software and services Optimized logistics processes Transparent monitoring of goods
