1.0 Introduction. The Internet Of Things (Iot) Is All About

1.0 Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) is all about devices: how we interact with them and the data they produce. As we move around from location to location our mobile device, which is packed with sensors and numerous wireless radios, helps us seamlessly communicate with various other devices. Some of these devices might be in our homes, some our offices, some in our cars or the stores we shop in. Still others, we wear on our bodies. (Blouin, 2017) The Information and Communication Technology development generates more and more things/objects that are becoming embedded with sensors and having the ability to communicate with other objects, that is transforming the physical world itself into an information and knowledge system.†¦show more content†¦2.0 Importance of internet of Things 2.1 Utilities In the application domain, the information gathered from the networks is usually used for service optimization rather than consumer’s consumption. It is being used by utility companies for resource management to obtain optimization between cost and profit. Smart metering and grid is another potential IOT application that is being implemented around the world. Energy consumption should be efficient and it can be achieved by continuously monitoring every electricity point within a house and this information is used for ensuring high quality of service by maintaining the load balance within the grid. Video based IOT, which includes computer vision, image processing and networking frameworks, will play a crucial role in developing a new challenging scientific research area. Surveillance, the most popularly used camera network applications, helps in tracking targets, identifying mistrustful activities, to detect misplaced luggage and to restrict unauthorized access. Another applica tion that is being addressed by IOT is water network monitoring and assurance of its quality. Sensors measuring different parameters of water are placed at important locations to ensure high quality supply. As a result, accidental contamination among storm drinking water, water drains and sewage disposal can beShow MoreRelatedThe Uses Of A Sensor1462 Words   |  6 PagesIntroduction A sensor is a hardware device that provides information to the computer about the location, temperature, pressure etc. by converting physical quantity into digital measures. Programs on computer are installed to fetch and access information from sensors and then store it for analysis. There are two types of sensors: The one that are built into computer and the others that are connected to computer via wired or wireless medium. Industries are investing in sensors for various sectors likeRead MoreInternet Of Things And The Cyber Security6553 Words   |  27 PagesABSTRACT Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging technology where absolutely â€Å"everything† (devices), are being connected to the internet in order for them to be able to communicate with each other. The internet may be the World Wide Web or any other form of connectivity used to interconnect two or more devices remotely. This is all for the benefit of mankind. Man is creating this technology and advancing it so as to benefit from it in all possible means by reducing work and taskforce and increasingRead MoreSecurity : Smart Homes Using Internet Of Things2253 Words   |  10 Pages SECURITY: SMART HOMES USING INTERNET OF THINGS (IoT) Rugved Amrutkar 8th Semester students, Dept. of Computer Engineering Smt.
