During the introduction, we started with discussion of Intel discontinuing consumer IoT prototyping boards and the recent NIST publication on lightweight cryptographic protocols.

Next, we started with a brief overview of some Smart City-ish programs:
Sequential Traffic Signal Timing Challenge
Frisco Traffic Light to Vehicle Communication
Frisco Smart Irrigation Program
Dallas West End Smart Streetlights, Kiosk, and Air-Quality Sensors
Oakland Air Pollution Mapping

1. Sequential Traffic Signal Timing Challenge (SpaT Challenge) – A program to encourage cities to implement Dedicated Short Range Communication infrastructure to vehicle messages over a coordinated corridor or network of traffic signals.
2. Frisco Traffic Light to Vehicle Communication – Some traffic lights broadcast a countdown to green light time to vehicles.
3. Frisco Smart Irrigation Program – City assisted setup of citizen purchased smart irrigation controller with usage data transmitted to the city.
4. Dallas West End Kiosks and WiFi – Large kiosks with curated information about tourist sites and wifi connectivity
5. Oakland Air Pollution Mapping – Mapping pollutant concentration and particulate in the city.

We broke into groups for further discussion of the programs. We then had round robin comments from some of the notable technologies, impact, funding, and other aspects each of the projects, with Q&A from the others.
