This report outlines how the convergence of Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things is reshaping data requirements, infrastructure needs, and operational models. AI’s dependence on real-world data elevates the role of connected devices, while the rise of AIoT is accelerating the shift of intelligence toward the edge. This creates increased pressure on connectivity to manage larger data volumes, stricter latency demands, and more complex regulatory and security environments. At the same time, organisations seeking to monetise AI are turning to IoT to create tangible services and improved efficiency, reinforcing the strategic value of optimised connectivity. The report finds that IoT connectivity must evolve significantly to meet these new requirements. Next-generation solutions must be designed to be secure across all layers, compliant with fast-moving regulatory frameworks, and flexible enough to operate across global networks and multiple technologies. They must also support deep interoperability across heterogeneous device fleets, orchestrate distributed AI workloads between edge and cloud environments, and enable collaboration across the IoT stack and between connectivity providers. In addition, platforms must become more user-friendly through unified management, automation, and operational simplification. These capabilities collectively define the “Intelligent Last Mile” required for AI-enabled IoT systems. The sections of the report examine: the growing interdependence of AI and IoT; the challenges of delivering data for AI; the functional requirements of the Intelligent Last Mile, including security, compliance, flexibility, interoperability, orchestration, collaboration, usability, resilience, scalability, efficiency, determinism, and observability; and a worked example showing how these principles apply to connected cars.

This report provides Transforma Insights’ view on the Unmanned Aquatic and Aerial Vehicles (Drones) market. This segment comprises multiple sub-applications: Very Small UAVs, Small UAVs, Medium UAVs, Large UAVs, Unmanned Surface Vehicles, and Unmanned Underwater Vehicles. UAVs have gained prominence not only among consumers but also across multiple industries (such as mining, oil and gas, and agriculture) and the security sector (including police departments, armed forces, and security services). Leading use cases include aerial photography and videography, terrestrial mapping, delivering parcels, light shows, and warfare. The use of these drones primarily depends on their physical features, such as size, weight, length of blades, and the distance they can travel. For instance, small UAVs are mostly preferred for short distances and consumer-centric activities such as amateur photography and videography. Medium and large UAVs are used primarily for commercial and military activities. Regulations play a pivotal role in the drone industry. Each country has its own rules, based on the size, weight, type, and functions of a drone. Countries such as China and the US have specific drone laws for some of their cities. For instance, China does not allow either consumer or commercial drones in Beijing. Large international manufacturers such as DJI, Parrot, and Delair are therefore beholden to selling drones which comply with a multitude of government directed rulesets. The report provides a detailed definition of the application, analysis of market development and profiles of the key vendors in the space. It also provides a summary of the current status of adoption and Transforma Insights’ ten-year forecasts for the market. The forecasts include analysis of the number of IoT connections by geography, the technologies used (including splits by 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, LPWA, short range, satellite and others), as well as the revenue split between module, value-added connectivity and services.
