By sticking this sensor on a breadboard with an Arduino Mini and WiFly network adapter, [Rob] is able to pull the data down from the IR sensor to his iPhone and overlay it on the feed from the camera.

We can build ideas that let people know data about their own location, and feed that data into a greater whole. For instance, with our noise sensor, we could look at noise by neighborhood.

Quantzig's recent study on the role of IoT sensor data in the automotive industry helped gauge its benefits.
