Well, the iphone is a fairly average start (and about 8 years late imo). It can do simple things, gps, temp, traveling speed etc. So while bird poop sensors are probably not going to be standard for some time, having thousands of iphones all feeding their travel information onto the web and a fairly accurate traffic congestion map could be generated. Another example: Google street view have done alot of the groundwork that in 5 years time will be done automatically via a distributed net of phones... The US military have done tests on triangulation of enemy targets by using the inbuilt audio pickups on their soldiers as it 'hears' enemy fire. With enough data points it becomes (mostly) simple maths leaving the AI part for us with natural I. Almost there – Just pull out your phone.

As for privacy, I think it's a deprecated concept that old-generation folks are desperately clinging to, and it'll be tossed out the window by our grandkids.
