Internet of Things - Hardware

The hardware utilized in IoT systems includes devices for a remote dashboard, devices
for control, servers, a routing or bridge device, and sensors. These devices manage key
tasks and functions such as system activation, action specifications, security,
communication, and detection to support-specific goals and actions.

IoT Sensors
The most important hardware in IoT might be its sensors. These devices consist of
energy modules, power management modules, RF modules, and sensing modules. RF
modules manage communications through their signal processing, WiFi, ZigBee,
Bluetooth, radio transceiver, duplexer, and BAW.

Smart glasses help us enjoy more of the media and services we value, and
when part of an IoT system, they allow a new approach to productivity.

Standard Devices
The desktop, tablet, and cellphone remain integral parts of IoT as the command center
and remotes.

The desktop provides the user with the highest level of control over the system
and its settings.
The tablet provides access to the key features of the system in a way resembling
the desktop, and also acts as a remote.

The cellphone allows some essential settings modification and also provides
remote functionality.

Other key connected devices include standard network devices like routers and
switches.
