Our smartphones and tablets are manufactured from parts made in the Far east that are transported then thousands of kilometers into the countries buying them.

A plethora of services were born due to the Internet and smartphone. Technology-empowered communication, television (TV), cinema, video games, writing and creation of other cultural assets changed the need for skills.

smartphones serve as a good example to illustrate the shift in the rate of innovation across time.
Smartphones represent a product innovation combining various functionalities such as the ones of mobile phones web browsers, or navigation systems.
When the first smartphones entered the market, the rate of this product innovation was very high.
Even though smartphones as such are not highly innovative any more, they still enable manifold process innovations in all kinds of application areas.

Lessons Learned from a Smartphone-Based Insurance Telematics Initiative Jens Ohlsson, Peter Haâ ndel, Shengnan Han,
In this chapter, we demonstrate the insurerâ s process innovation with smartphone-based insurance telematics, using the example of the âoeif Safedriveâ campaign
or smartphone, has become a ubiquitous personal device influencing a large portion of the contemporary individualâ s daily life.
The capabilities of smartphones exhibit a dramatic increase compared to traditional feature phones due to (1) the user friendly human-machine interface design;(
Contemporary smartphones are equipped with a large set of sensors which sense the surrounding environment, including means for positioning via e g.,
, used for the detection of the orientation of the smartphone for automatic rotation of the displayed information;
which enhance the calculated position, direction and movement of the bearer of the smartphone. By combining measurements from sensors with complementary properties, information with enhanced properties can typically be extracted.
Sensor-equipped measurement platforms with processing capabilities existed prior to the introduction of the smartphone,
but the smartphone made it a ubiquitous device available in large volumes and distributed to a large portion of the populationâ a fact that opens up opportunities for developing a range of disruptive technologies.
The sensing capabilities of the smartphone create exciting new application areas (Lane et al. 2010). ) Connecting millions or even billions of smartphones into large scale sensing systems enable time or location-based services in environment monitoring, intelligent transportation systems, applications in health and support for the ageing populations,
to mention only a few. Sheng, Tang, Xiao, and Xue (2013) list two paradigms for sensing via large-scale smartphone-based measurement systems, namely,(1) participatory sensing and (2) opportunistic sensing, where the former is based on an active
participation on the part of the smartphone owner and the latter has automated sensing without the interaction of the end-user.
The evolution of smartphone technologies together with its social and technical capabilities creates a solid foundation for innovating business processes in various industries.
An innovation is defined as âoenew to the state of the art, â which basically means without known precedent (Abrahamson, 1996;
which a smartphone-based Usage Based Insurance (UBI) product for a personalised car insurance is realized. It is believed that the findings are of a general interest as an example of a disruptive technology,
like a smartphone (Fig. 1, pictures from left to right). An insurer can access actual driving behaviour data through an insurance telematics program.
The possibility of obtaining a scalable technology for insurance telematics has increased the insurance companiesâ interest in smartphone-based programs
and smartphone with insurance telematics software from Movelo (right) 88 J. Ohlsson et al. 2. 1 The Smartphone-Based Insurance Telematics Application At the Department of Signal Processing, KTH
a new smartphone-based measurement probe is developed and subsequently deployed for commercial purpose (Haâ ndel, Ohlsson, Ohlsson, Skog, & Nygren, 2014).
The clear advantages using the smartphone in this context include its high availability, competitive price-performance metric,
or a smartphone, as illustrated in Fig. 1. The probe monitors and transmits risk-related information to the insurers such as the speeding,
and smartphone development in combination with the research activities at the universities were a catalyst for the moving vehicle logger campaign that was set up by Movelo AB and If P & C in early 2013.
such as a smartphone solution, the insurers need innovated marketing and sales processes to facilitate and get a maximum effect out of the new product.
and sales process by getting a new customer channel and improved customer relations through the new possibility of communicating to their customers via the smartphone;(
The process innovation and redesign work was done by means of an iterative approach Movelo prototyped the smartphone solution

The purpose of the commercial release was to implement the smartphone application in real driving scenarios with larger group customers/car drivers.

In this activity of the To-Be process the end user received feedback from his/her smartphone on driving behaviour after each drive (see Fig. 2). The feedback consisted of scores 0â 100 based on braking, acceleration and speeding behaviour,
the smartphone should be mounted on the dash board, thus, a cradle to put the smartphone in should be fixed in the car,
which results in extra costs for end users. Thus the feedback during the driving was passive,
In the smartphone solution one can set up an auto-start function, thus the end users can have the application start by itself when driving.
