Abstract
The Internet of Things is an emerging, mainly technology driven, field, seen as a radical modifier of the semantic relationships between people, objects and cities. Based on the empirical study of various products and systems within the Internet of Things environment, a conceptual model is proposed to explain the phenomenon of Design (Meaning) Driven Innovation and its particular variables, where the radical innovations, make sense in society. It is argued that the variables: Social Willingness to Change, Network of Visionaries, Technology and Meanings are four actors for the construction of new and radical meanings in products.
