Don't get too excited just yet - actually putting a sensor on everything would cost a huge amount of money and anything besides a passive RFID tag or barcode would need a battery. Consumers would need to pay an extra few dollars for everything and would need to replace batteries on everything they own every year or so. These protocols don't really do anything - the research community has bounced stuff like this around for a while. Someone actually needs to build better hardware before the Internet of Things vision actually comes true.
