NIGHT WITH A FUTURIST: The Future of Mobile APPS and Peripherals

We are witnessing an explosion of apps for our handheld devices.

When Apple introduced their iPhone SDK (software development kit) on March 6, 2008, no one had a clue about the tectonic plate-shifting nature of this announcement. In just a few short years the number of apps has mushroomed into a force of nature, radically shifting how products are created, and more importantly, how people in the physical world interface with information in the digital world.

Today’s smartphones exist as self-contained communication tools, but that is changing quickly as a wide assortment of peripheral devices have begun entering the marketplace.

In this episode of Night With A Futurist, Futurist Thomas Frey takes a very probing look at where the exploding world of apps and peripherals will take us.
