Mark Johnson, President and CEO of Shine Micro, Inc., will present at the annual RTCM / NMEA Marine Electronics Conference and EXPO on Wednesday, September 26, 2018, at the PGA Resort in Palm Gardens, Florida.
Mr. Johnson is respected internationally for his work promoting the voluntary adoption of AIS and increasing the range and sensitivity of AIS reception, and actively participates in both National and International standards committees. This year’s presentation relates the emerging OoT (Ocean of Things) to the popular IoT (Internet of Things), and discusses:
- What is OOT
- Where do existing technologies fit in OOT
- Where are the gaps in OOT
- Call to action to fill the gaps
The combined NMEA / RTCM Conference & Expo is the largest industry trade event focusing strictly on marine electronics. Meeting sessions are complemented by exhibits and demonstrations of the newest technology in maritime radiocommunications and radionavigation equipment and services, provided through the cooperation of RTCM and NMEA member organizations.
