| Summary: |
“The IoT is a concept where a network of everyday physical objects is accessed through the internet and are able to automatically identify themselves to other devices because of their inherent “ambient intelligence”, creating a smarter world”1
The Internet of Things can also be defined as "a world in which machines, networked devices and cloud-based applications not only connect but cooperate with each other, where big data analytics enable intelligent decision making.”2
Building blocks IoT includes microcontrollers, microprocessors, environmental and other types of sensors, and short range and long range networking communications are becoming more powerful, even as they get smaller and less expensive to produce.
An important additional capability of IoT is a secured service infrastructure that supports the communication and remote control capabilities that enable a wide variety of Internet-enabled devices to work together. |
