Qualcomm advances IoT strategy in Brazil with lab launch | ZDNet
The lab, announced earlier this year by the firm’s president for Latin America Rafael Steinhauser, is already working on a first pilot that is working on improving public security by monitoring vehicles through IoT-enabled wireless networks and applications.
According to Qualcomm, the center will initially focus on other projects related to the smart city concept, offer training courses and showcase the benefits of IoT to decision makers in the public sector.
The IoT-focused facility is based at Facens, a college based in the São Paulo countryside city of Sorocaba. Private research organization CPqD is also a partner in the project.
