IoT refers\nto the Internet of things which is a system of objects which are interrelated\n(related or connected to each other) and inter-connected to each other through\na wireless network and are able to transfer, collect and analyze data without\nany need for the human intervention in the process. It is basically an\nautomated and digitalized system of information transfer and collection and\ncompletely deals with the data. One could say that IoT is all about the data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\npossibilities and scope of the IoT are countless. They vary both from the\npersonal usage to enhancing the efficiency and capabilities of your business. They\nare seen in our daily lives as smart watches and health observers which connect\nthe smart watches, biochips and other medical observation, supervision devices\nto our smart phones and our computers and continuously collect and transmit the\nrelated data to them. One of the prime examples of it are the fitness apps\nwhich track how many steps you have taken in your jog, or many meters did you run\nor even the monitoring of one\u2019s heart beat rate. All of this is made possible\nthrough the IoT and its applications and this is just the tip of the iceberg. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\nare several commercial and business applications of the IoT as well. The\nmonitoring of the livestock through a biochips, smart homes which are\ncompletely controllable through a simple app with your Smartphone allowing you\ncomplete control over the power appliances in your entire residence or even the\nautomobiles equipped with various sensors which continuously collect the data\nand supply the driver with a myriad of information regarding his vehicle like\nthe tire pressure, fuel warnings, maintenance of the engine or any other parts\nwhich are deteriorating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Basically,\nany object, appliance or machinery which is equipped with the necessary sensors\nand transmitter to both collect the data and transmit that data over a wireless\nnetwork falls into the IoT. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\nbusinesses today are completely motivated by the IoT and its prospects and its\napplications. IoT can not only increase the revenue of a business, it also\nreduces the operational costs and increases the operational efficiency of a\nbusiness. IoT devices provide constant and continuous insights into the\nstreamlined workflow, visualize usage patterns, automate processes, meet\ncompliance requirements, and compete more effectively in a changing business\nenvironment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IoT started with the public access of the internet and the global deployment of a satellite network over the whole planet in 1989. This laid the foundation of the communications systems for the whole globe and would become the base of the all the internet and web activities. In 1990s, the first ever IoT device was created by the John Romkey, which was a simple toaster connected to a computer through a TCP\/IP protocol. This toaster connected to the internet became an inspiration for the IoT devices and how everyday appliances could be controlled without the need to physically operate them by human hands. This toaster is still considered the first ever IoT device in existence. Following the internet connected toaster, the University of Cambridge created the XCoffee machine in 1993 which provided the inspiration for the inspiration for the world\u2019s first webcams. This inspiration is later realized by Steve Mann in 1994, who creates world\u2019s first wearable internet connected camera. In 1998, the IPv6 is introduced to the world and in 1999 Kevin Ashton presents the world the well-known term, IoT (Internet of things) for all the internet connected appliances. From this point onwards, the innovations and the expansion in the IoT would begins to explode with a rapid pace. In year 2000, LG announces the world\u2019s first internet enable refrigerator and the term \u201cInternet of things\u201d started appearing in the book titles. The first IoT international conference is held in 2008 and Google introduces the world\u2019s first self-driving cars in 2009 which was a monumental achievement in the IoT industry as well as a break through point for the whole industry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following\nthe Google\u2019s breakthrough, China picks IoT as its main industry to tackle its\nfinancial problems and the cycle of innovations in IoT begins here. Advanced\nsmart glasses are created by Google in 2013 and the Global Standards Initiative\nis introduced for the Internet of Things in 2015.The IoT malware is detected in\n2016 and IoT cyber security is introduced in the following year. From the\nfollowing years, a myriad of advancements are made bringing us the IoT industry\nas we know it today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
IoT\nsystems and resources are often not understood as how they actually work. They\nare often misunderstood with the literal meaning of the term with simple things\nbut in reality, IoT resources are highly technical and confusing so it\u2019s not\neasy to get a grasp over their working principles and how an IoT system\nactually works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A\ncomplete IoT system operates in four distinct components which are the\nDevices\/sensors, connectivity of those devices, data processing from those\ndevices and finally the user interface for the data to be displayed after being\nprocessed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\ninformation collection devices or the sensors are the instruments which collect\nthe information from their surrounding and transmit it to the system to be\nprocessed. These devices can be as simple as reading the temperature of a place\nto something as complex as a full video-feed. IoT systems employ these sensors\nor a full bundle of sensors to gather information. The sensors may not\nnecessarily be standalone versions of gathering the information; they can also\nbe a part of another device. A prime example of this is the smart phone which\nis equipped with a myriad of sensors but he phone itself is not a sensor.\nWhether it is a standalone sensor or a device equipped with them, the first\nstep in any IoT system is the information gathering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\nsecond component of the IoT system is the connectivity of those sensor devices\nwhich need to transmit their gathered data to the cloud and they need a way or\na medium to send their data. This can be accomplished through a multitude of\nmethods including the cellular network, Wifi, satellite coverage, Bluetooth,\nLPWAN or even connecting directly to the internet through Ethernet. All of\nthese methods have their advantages and disadvantages in terms or power\nconsumption, range and bandwidth depending on their application but no matter\nwhich method is used to transmit this data, they all accomplish the same task,\nthat is to transfer the data to the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Data\nprocessing in the cloud storage comes next. After the data has been\nsuccessfully transferred to the cloud, the software processes that data to make\nto be displayed in the interface devices in a language and in terms which have\nbeen programmed to be displayed. This processing makes sure that the data\nreceived from the sensors is displayed in the interface in a way that the\nhumans can easily understand without having the extensive knowledge of the\nprocessing software programming. This data is then processed and any\nabnormalities in the predefined system are detected. These abnormalities can be\nlike the temperature of a device exceeding the safe and defined limits or an\nintruder captured in a video feed in your house or in the office. In case the\nabnormalities like these are detected, the last component is needed to take the\naction for the situation, i.e the user interface. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The\nuser-interface is how the user interacts with the whole IoT system. They can\ninteract with it in the form of a simple display which shows all of the\nparameters of their devices to them or it can be in the form of an alert\nthrough a text message or an email or a notification alerting them to the\nabnormalities in their IoT system. This alert can inform them of the\ntemperature going over the safe operational limits in their car engine or any\nother machinery or it can inform them that an unknown individual was detected\nin the parameter in the video feed. In some cases, the actions are performed\nautomatically like readjusting the rising temperatures in a cold storage where\nthe user has designated them to be in an automated mode, or they can adjust the\ntemperature through their app or they can configure the video surveillance to\nalert the relevant authorities of the intruders or they can check the video\nfeed themselves. It all depends on the user\u2019s configuration and preferences of\nthe system and the system will respond automatically to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
