22. Internet of Things

23. “How much more IOT can do is only left to your imagination and to
your budget. You can do as little or as much with IoT as you want.”
InternetofThings(IOT)
- We Are At The Tip of AnIceberg

24. The Internet Of Things
IDC estimates there will
be approximately 212
billion things globally by
the end of 2020.
Extreme Networks
estimates that 5 billion
people will have
Internet
access.
The ‘Internet of Things’
will generate
$14,400,000,000 of
value over the next
decade1.
There will be 40 times
more devices than
people on the Internet in
20202.

26. KEVIN ASHTON: Father of IoT
In 1999, Kevin Ashton coins the term INTERNET
OF THINGS (IoT) and establishes MIT’s auto ID
center a global research network of academic
laboratories focused on RFID and the IoT
He believed IoT could “turn the world into
data” that could be used to make macro
decisions on resource utilization.
“Information is a great way to reduce waste
and increase efficiency, and that’s really
what the Internet of Things provide”

29. Internet of Things Wave

31. 1. SENSORS and Actuators
• We are giving our world a digital nervous system. Locating data using
GPS sensors. Eyes and ears using microphones and cameras, along with
sensory organs that can measure everything from temperature to pressure.

33. 3. PEOPLE and Processes
• These networked inputs can then be combined into bidirectionalsystems
that integrate data, people, processes and systems for betterdecision
making.

• We generate data whenever we
go online, use our GPS-
equipped smartphones,
communicate our friends
through social media or do
online shopping Image source:
