Jeannine Sargent, president of Innovation and New Ventures at Flextronics, spoke with HuffPost Live at Davos about the "IOT," or internet of things.
"We like to say that it's not about internet of things, it's about intelligence of things," she said.
"It's more about how you have smart and connective devices that interact to deliver better capabilities or efficiencies, but really also better experiences for you and I, and it's really changing the way we live, work and play," she added, saying smart phones, electronic toothbrushes and razors or coffee machines are part of it.
"What's interesting and evolving the intelligence of things is how we use that data," Sargent said, describing how soon, car entertainment systems will not only play music and give directions, but be able to have conversations with drivers to help them change lanes, avoid collisions and get traffic information.
"It's that real time exchange of information that's really taking us out of the information age, into the age of intelligence," she told HuffPost Live.
