Introduction about IoT
Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) is emerging as the third wave in the development of the Internet. The 1990s’ Internet wave connected 1 billion users while the 2000s’ mobile wave connected another 2 billion. The IoT has the potential to connect 10X as many (28 billion) “things” to the Internet by 2020, ranging from bracelets to cars. Breakthroughs in the cost of sensors, processing power and bandwidth to connect devices are enabling ubiquitous connections right now. Smart products like smart watches and thermostats (Nest) are already gaining traction as stated in Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research’s report. IoT Generic Definition The Internet of Things (IoT) is a scenario in which objects, animals or people are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring humantohuman or humantocomputer interaction

Introduction about IoT
IoT Definition from IT perspective It is the network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors and connectivity to enable it to achieve greater value and service by exchanging data with the manufacturer, operator and/or other connected devices.
IoT has key attributes that distinguish it from the “regular” Internet, as captured by Goldman Sachs’s SENSE framework: Sensing, Efficient, Networked, Specialized, Everywhere. These attributes may tilt the direction of technology development and adoption,, with significant implications for Tech companies – much like the transition from the fixed to the mobile Internet shifted the center of gravity from Intel to Qualcomm or from Dell to Apple.

Introduction about IoT
A number of significant technology changes have come together to enable the rise of the IoT. These include the following:
● Cheap sensors – Sensor prices have dropped to an average 60 cents from $1.30 in the past 10 years.
● Cheap bandwidth – The cost of bandwidth has also declined precipitously, by a factor of nearly 40X over the past 10 years.
● Cheap processing – Similarly, processing costs have declined by nearly 60X over the past 10 years, enabling more devices to be not just connected, but smart enough to know what to do with all the new data they are generating or receiving.
● Smartphones – Smartphones are now becoming the personal gateway to the IoT, serving as a remote control or hub for the connected home, connected car, or the health and fitness devices consumers are increasingly starting to wear.
● Ubiquitous wireless coverage – With WiFi coverage now ubiquitous, wireless connectivity is available for free or at a very low cost, given WiFi utilizes unlicensed spectrum and thus does not require monthly access fees to a carrier.
● Big data – As the IoT will by definition generate voluminous amounts of unstructured data, the availability of big data analytics is a key enabler.
● IPv6 – Most networking equipment now supports IPv6, the newest version of the Internet Protocol (IP) standard that is intended to replace IPv4. IPv4 supports 32bit addresses, which translates to about 4.3 billion addresses – a number that has become largely exhausted by all the connected devices globally. In contrast, IPv6 can support 128bit addresses, translating to approximately 3.4 x 1038 addresses – an almost limitless number that can amply handle all conceivable IoT devices.

IoT Technology Roadmap
IoT Areas of usage 1. Agriculture sensors can be deployed on farm machinery in order to provide data
about the equipment, soil temperature, moisture, etc. For examples: ○ Wine Quality Enhancing ○ Green Houses ○ Golf Courses ○ Meteorological Station Network ○ Compost
2. Buildings/Smart Homes Building sensors be used to help facility managers become more proactive about ensuring that their buildings operate at peak efficiency.
3. Communities – Smart cities. For examples:
○ Smart Parking ○ Structural health ○ Noise Urban Maps ○ Smartphone Detection ○ Eletromagnetic Field Levels ○ Traffic Congestion ○ Smart Lighting ○ Waste Management ○ Smart Roads

Introduction about IoT
4. Healthcare – Infant monitors, smart diapers, pills with ingestible sensors are just some of the IOTbased devices.
5. Manufacturing – factories with sensors can improve operations, product quality, and decrease safety hazards.
6. Smartphones – can control everything from door locks, thermostats, light bulbs, vacuum cleaners, and more.
7. Utilities – smart water meters can be used to reduce water leaks. Smart electric grids can adjust rates depending on usage.
8. Wearables – Smart watches, fitness trackers and health monitors may become primary source for humanrelated data, and can also be used in sports, retail, travel and manufacturing.
