- 19. BUILDING ACCESSIBLE THINGS SOURCE: https://devstev.es/accessible IoT/WoT systems need to provide specific accessibility features to address the needs of people with different disabilities. - The connected projector provides access to the presentation data in addition to the video output - A connected TV provides support for captions - All hardware controls provided can be operated through the web interface or API
- 20. BUILDING ACCESSIBLE FIRST New considerations may be needed in future accessibility standards and guidelines, to better address IoT/WoT contexts. - An individual component, such as a headset, may not address all accessibility requirements - The combination of individual components needs to provide an accessible system - An IoT/WoT system needs to provide basic platform accessibility, and individual components needs to adhere to it SOURCE: https://devstev.es/accessible

- 25. IoT & Accessibility Internet of Things (IoT), also called SMART technology has taken the tech world by storm the last couple of years. Internet-connected devices are being used in innovative ways to improve quality of life for all people. IoT potentially offers a revolutionary, fully accessible and “smart” world by improving interaction between objects, their environment and people. Source: https://devstev.es/read5
- 26. IoT Devices: Why Accessibility Should Be Your First Priority The Internet of Things has made it even more fun to look toward the future. It wasn’t that long ago when we fantasized about how technology could and would impact our daily lives—with more intuitive vehicles, kitchen appliances, and input devices modeling your home after an episode of The Jetsons.

- 27. ACCESSIBILITY. IS UNIVERSAL DESIGN VIABLE There is little doubt that the IoT is already improving the lives of millions of people with disabilities around the world. Innovations range from the mobile apps that allow a blind and deaf person to communicate with someone via various mediums to Personal Emergency Response Systems (PERS), sensor pill bottles and assistance bots that enable someone who is physically handicapped to stay at home and retain their independence.

Editor's Notes
- Come with me on a journey into network connectivity with low powered devices connecting in to create some amazing developer
- As a technologist, dev and all round geek I love iot. It is the endless possibilities of the things that enable developers, dreamers and those that dare to be able to imagine the seamless experiences that can be built into the world around us. As a dev it moves my online world into the real allowing me to interact with users in whole new ways.
- IOT is already interacting with us from Body sensors to detect ailments and monitor health or interact with other devices. Even the humble toaster, like brad the toaster, can be transformed into an interactive experience programmed to get stampy when it isnt used regularly or if it finds out that other toasters are getting used mo re often.

- Theres a saying in the iot world when dealing with servers and devops, in the internet of things nobody knows you are a fridge … you could say it’s a bit of a cool thought because you are dealing with things from fridges to buttons and sensors while you are also dealing with the usual gambit of devops traffic. Theres a really cool saying in the iot world that no
- In the internet of things nobody can hear you scream if you don’t have connectivity
- In 2013 connectivity while limited to wifi we saw the emergence of some of the first iot wifi enabled boards, like the Arduino yun which retailed for around $70 and rocked a light version of openwrt which ran separate to its Arduino chipset via a highly latent json bridge. 6 months later the industry was rocked by the emergence of a new board, the ESP8266 which not only had wifi but retailed for about $6 a board. Just think about that, in the span of 6 months we went from boards the size of a hand to the size of a fingernail.
- So why the gap, the larger iot industry realized there was a connectivity problem and one of the things I love about our industry is its often reactive nature in

- LTE cat 1 started to become available so too did the iot devices to connect to the network and as network capabilities increased the devices have become smaller and smaller. The first LTE cat 1 network device to be released in 2016 was as big as 2 raspberry pi’s put together and needed 2 antennas to connect to the network, this power hungry device enabled the early days of LTE cat connectivity. The recently announced MKR NB 1500 is one in many devices that has seen iot hardware react to the increased reach and connectivity enabling multi band functionality in a device the size of your finger.
- Connecting is just the beginning for our humble little devices. A super critical component to any iot connectivity is also device management, being able to deploy and handle on device upgrades via the network is
- Lorawan, sigfox and the likes created an extended hub trying to distribute edge computing with expensive and time consuming
- It probably goes without saying in a room of devops that theres much we take for granted in the digital world, browsers and operating systems handle much in the way of headers and HTTP. In the IOT world the devices need to be programmed to do everything
