2. IoT
 Internet ofThings= Internet +Things
 Internet=WorldWide Network of
Computers
 Things=Physical andVirtual Entities
 M2MTechnology
 The term became popular in 1999 and
was proposed by Kevin Ashton
 It is the Future
 Things are connected to the internet
 Things can interact with each other
 Things contains embedded technology

3.  PhysicalWorld is connected
and communicates with each
other
 Makes PhysicalWorld SMART
 Integration of real world
data and services into the
current information
networking technology

4. Trends
 Smart Cities
 E- Health
 Security & Emergencies
 Miniaturization of devices
 Improved communications
 Real time analysis
 Artificial Intelligence
 Big Data

5. Current
Scenario

6. Area of Interests
Home Automation
 Use of computers and
information technology to
control home appliances and
features.
 Provides centralized control
 Integrates electrical devices
in home with each other.

7. Home Automation
System Elements
 Sensors
 Controllers
 Actuators
 Buses
 Interfaces
Tasks
 HVAC
 Lighting
 Audio-Visual
 Security
Problems
 Costs include equipments, components, installations.
 Different devices from different vendors are not compatible.
 Different networking devices are needed for different devices.

8. Solutions
 For a working mother, if her children arrives at home from their
school.Their lunch can be warmed up in microwave in just a click
by mother.
 If there is any security breech or any emergencies in the house, the
home automation system will itself alert the house owners and
concerned authorities.
 Air conditioners can be switched on even before the person
reaches home.
 Devices from DifferentVendors can be made interoperable by
using a basic architecture in each device.
 Costs can be reduced by recycling the components.

9. Major Criticisms of IoT
 Security
No consideration of profound security
challenges.
 Privacy,Autonomy and Control
Influence on moral decision making.
Erodes people’s control over their lives.
User consent
Freedom of choice
Anonymity
 Impact on Environment
Manufacture, use and disposal of all
semiconductors- rich devices.
Difficult to recycle devices.
