Motorola is focused on realizing the value in the substantial amounts of data that many of our customers and end users produce. With a "sea of data" generated every day — much of it through Motorola's industry-leading products, including cable set-tops, data scanners, RFID technologies and public safety records management — Motorola is researching technologies that enable substantial new revenue opportunities as a result of collecting data, analyzing it to create valuable knowledge and reporting or acting on this new found knowledge.

Analytics projects lead to improved products more customized to a specific need, or to entirely new applications, platforms and services enabled by sophisticated data collection and analysis engines.
