Direct-to-device satellite connectivity sounds like a future technology. In many places, it's already here -- and the gap between the promise and the current reality is exactly where strong ideas live. The Direct to Device and IoT module features four expert interviews: Melanie Gasperi on the business side of D2D, Viasat engineer Shaffath Shakir on the technical promises and limitations, Simon Churches (IoT product owner at Telstra, Australia) on real-world case studies, and Rahul Katariya (D2D product leader at CGI) on where the technology is heading next. The ITU article "Direct-to-device satellites: Four ways to connect the world" is also in this module and worth reading before you watch. Learning Resources tab -- July 19 deadline.
