1.0. OBJECTIVE

1. The fundamental objective of IoT is to obtain and analyze data from


un

things.
2. IoT covers a wide spectrum of applications, including the detailed
real-time sensing of our environment and the embedding of
m

connected intelligence into everyday objects.


3. By connecting all kinds of objects and systems, Internet stuff can
offer new ways to research and learn.

1.1 THE FLAVOR OF THE INTERNET OF THINGS

1. My Train-Schedule Alarm Clock


2. Vitality GlowCap
3. Umbrella with Weather-Forecasting Handle
4. Nike + Health App
5. Transport for London
6. Wheredial
1. My Train-Schedule Alarm Clock:
The alarm rings. As we open our eyes dim, we see that it’s five
minutes later than our usual wake-up time. It was just a simple state
machine that slept until it got close to wake-up time, then it started 1
The Internet of Things monitoring the departure boards. The clock has checked the train
times online, and your train must be delayed, so it lets you sleep a
little longer.
2. Vitality GlowCap:
Vitality GlowCap is an easy-to-use, comprehensive medication
adherence system consisting of a smart cap and bottle, Vitality
Mobile Application, and the Vitality Medication Adherence Portal.
Automated visual and audible alerts are scheduled during dosage
windows which signals that it is time for the user to take his or her
medications. A blinking light reminds you it’s time to take your
tablets. If you forget, the medicine bottle cap goes online and emails
your doctor, care managers, and trusted family and friends to let
them know.
3. Umbrella with Weather-Forecasting
A model for appropriate embedded technology, the Forecast
umbrella provides information about the likelihood of rain so that
users can make a simple decision about whether to take their

.in
umbrella with them as they leave for home. Using existing Wi-Fi
technology to wirelessly pull information from the internet,
Forecast’s lighted umbrella handle is lit up, which means that it has
checked the BBC weather reports and predicted rain.

4. Nike + Health App:
A pedometer in your training shoes and a heart monitor in your wrist
ot

band help track your run around the block. The wrist band’s large
display also makes it easy to glance down and see how fast you are
running and how many calories you’ve burned. All the data is
un

automatically uploaded to your sports tracking site, which also


integrates with your online supermarket shopping account to make it
easy to compare with how many calories you’ve eaten.

5. Transport for London:


The bus company first installed those displays, they ran on the
expected timetable information only, but now that every bus has
GPS tracking its location, they simply connect to the bus company’s
online service and always give the updated information. As you pass
the bus stop on the way to the station, you notice the large LCD
display flash that the number 23 is due.
6. Wheredial:
Your phone checks you in automatically to a location-based service
(such as Foursquare). On your mantelpiece at home, an ornament
with a dial notices the change and starts to turn so that the text on it
points to the word “Traveling”. Your family will also see later that
you’ve arrived at “Work” safely.

1.2. THE “INTERNET” OF “THINGS” The Internet of Things:
An Overview

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical devices, vehicles,


home appliances, and other items embedded with electronics, software,
sensors, actuators, and connectivity which enables these things to connect
and exchange data, creating opportunities for more direct integration of
the physical world into computer-based systems, resulting in efficiency
improvements, economic benefits, and reduced human exertions.
Connecting everyday things embedded with electronics, software and
sensors to the internet enabling them to collect and exchange data. IoT
(Internet of Things) is an advanced automation and analytics system which
exploits networking, sensing, big data, and artificial intelligence
technology to deliver complete systems for a product or service. These
systems allow greater transparency, control, and performance when
applied to any industry or system.
For example: A temperature sensor sends temperature data to a process
which determines that the room temperature is too hot and so sends a

.in
signal to turn on the air conditioning. es
