WHAT IS IoT?

• The basic premise and goal of IoT is to “connect the unconnected.”

• This means that objects that are not currently joined to a computer network,
namely the Internet, will be connected so that they can communicate and
interact with people and other objects.

• A tighter integration between the physical world and computers is enabled.


GENESIS OF IoT
• The person credited with the creation of the term “Internet of Things”
is Kevin Ashton in 1999.

• Computers depended on humans to input data and knowledge


through typing, bar codes, and so on.

• IoT is changing this paradigm; in the twenty-first century, computers


are sensing things for themselves.
EVOLUTION OF INTERNET
Internet Phase Definition
Connectivity (Digitize access) This phase connected people to email, web services,
and search so that information is easily accessed.
Networked Economy (Digitize business) This phase enabled e-commerce and supply chain
enhancements along with collaborative engagement
to drive increased efficiency in business processes.
Immersive Experiences (Digitize interactions) This phase extended the Internet experience to
encompass widespread video and social media while
always being connected through mobility. More and
more applications are moved into the cloud.
Internet of Things (Digitize the world) This phase is adding connectivity to objects and
machines in the world around us to enable new
services and experiences. It is connecting the
unconnected.
IoT and DIGITIZATION
• IoT and digitization are terms that are often used interchangeably.

• At a high level, IoT focuses on connecting “things,” such as objects


and machines, to a computer network, such as the Internet.

• Digitization, as defined in its simplest form, is the conversion of


information into a digital format.
• For example, the whole photography industry has been digitized.
IoT IMPACT
• About 14 billion, or just 0.06%, of “things” are connected to the
Internet today.
• IoT is going to allow self-driving vehicles to better interact with the
transportation system around them through bidirectional data
exchanges while also providing important data to the riders.

• For example, with IoT-connected roadways, a concept known as


Intersection Movement Assist (IMA) is possible. This application
warns a driver (or triggers the appropriate response in a self-driving
car) when it is not safe to enter an intersection due to a high
probability of a collision—perhaps because another car has run a stop
sign or strayed into the wrong lane.
• In the future, car sensors will be able to interact with third-party
applications, such as GPS/maps, to enable dynamic rerouting to avoid
traffic, accidents, and other hazards.
• A convergence of factory-based operational technologies and
architectures with global IT networks is starting to occur, and this is
referred to as the connected factory.
• As with the IoT solutions for the connected roadways previously
discussed, there are already large numbers of basic sensors on factory
floors. However, with IoT, these sensors not only become more
advanced but also attain a new level of connectivity.
• While we tend to look at IoT as an evolution of the Internet, it is also
sparking an evolution of industry.
• Another promising IoT technology in the smart connected building, d
one that is seeing widespread adoption, is the “digital ceiling.”

• This technology encompasses several of the building’s different


networks—including lighting, HVAC, blinds, CCTV (closed-circuit
television), and security systems—and combines them into a single IP
network.
IoT CHALLENGES
• Scale
• Security
• Privacy
• Big Data and Data Analytics
• Interoperability
