SAP had three patents in internet of things during Q2 2024. SAP SE has filed patents for smart home hubs that receive sensor information from various smart home objects and generate smart home events. These hubs communicate with a central management plane component in a cloud-native application runtime to execute smart home functions via a cloud infrastructure, such as reducing the cost of operating a smart washing machine. The system can transmit smart home responses to the hub to trigger tasks in smart home objects based on the analysis of sensor information received through different communication protocols.

Application: Cloud-native application runtime support for smart home sensor functions (Patent ID: US20240146569A1)
The patent filed by SAP SE describes a system for smart home event processing, where a smart home hub receives sensor information from various smart home objects and generates smart home events based on this data. These events are then processed by a central management plane component associated with a cloud-native application runtime, which automatically executes smart home functions via a cloud infrastructure. The system then transmits a smart home response back to the smart home hub, triggering tasks in the smart home objects, such as running a washing machine when electricity costs are low.
The system is designed to work with a wide range of smart home objects, including sensors, electric vehicles, lighting systems, HVAC devices, security systems, and more. The cloud-native application runtime supports the extension and integration of monolithic software, running distributed systems based on containers, and utilizing serverless functions and microservices. The smart home hub includes components for protocol translation, routing, translation, and error handling, as well as event adapters and rule engines to facilitate communication and event generation for the cloud-native application runtime. Overall, the system enables efficient and automated management of smart home functions based on sensor data and external information.
