Internet of things and its application in today's world and the future aspects

1. Internet Of Things
The Internet of Things (IOT) is a system of interrelated computing devices,
mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are
provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a
network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer
interaction.

2. WHY IOT?
• The true value of the Internet of Things does not lay in the lights turning on
when the car reaches the driveway, but rather the data that the connected
devices collect about its users. Imagine a hospital with connected devices.
The data collected from those devices outputs information on the status of
patients and runs analytics on the various monitoring machine, helping the
hospital to run as optimally as possible.

3. Application of IOT
• Smart home
• Wearables
• Smart City
• Smart grids
• Industrial internet
• Connected car
• Connected Health
• Smart retail
• Smart Supply Chain
• Smart Farming

4. Smart Homes
• A smart home or building is a home or building, that is equipped
with special structured wiring to enable occupants to remotely
control or program an array of automated home electronic devices
by entering a single command. For example, a homeowner on
vacation can use a Touchtone phone to arm a home security
system, control temperature gauges, switch appliances on or off,
control lighting, program a home theater or entertainment system,
and perform many other tasks.

5. Wearables
• Electronics that can be worn on the body, either as an accessory or as
part of material used in clothing. One of the major features
of wearable technology is its ability to connect to the Internet,
enabling data to be exchanged between a network and the device.

6. Smart City
• A smart city is an urban development vision to integrate multiple information and
communication technology (ICT) solutions in a secure fashion to manage a city’s assets
– the city’s assets include, but not limited to, local departments information
systems, schools, libraries, transportation systems, hospitals, power plants, water
supply networks, waste management, law enforcement, and other community
services. The goal of building a smart city is to improve quality of life by using
technology to improve the efficiency of services and meet residents’ needs.

7. Smart Grid
• A smart grid is an electrical grid which includes a variety of operational and
energy measures including smart meters, smart appliances, renewable
energy resources, and energy efficiency resources. Electronic power
conditioning and control of the production and distribution of electricity are
important aspects of the smart grid

8. Industrial Internet
• The Industrial Internet refers to the integration of complex physical machinery
with networked sensors and software it installs intelligence above the level of
individual machines — enabling remote control, optimization at the level of the
entire system, and sophisticated machine-learning algorithms that can work
extremely accurately because they take into account vast quantities of data
generated by large systems of machines as well as the external context of every
individual machine.

9. Connected Car
• A connected car is a car that is equipped with Internet access, and
usually also with a wireless local area network. This allows the car to
share internet access with other devices both inside as well as outside
the vehicle.

10. Connected Health
• Connected health is a model for healthcare delivery that uses technology to
provide healthcare remotely. Connected health aims to maximize healthcare
resources and provide increased, flexible opportunities for consumers to
engage with clinicians and better self-manage their care.

11. Smart Retail
• Smart retail is a term used to describe a set of smart technologies
that are designed to give the consumer a greater, faster, safer and
smarter experience when shopping

12. Smart Supply Chain
A supply chain is a system of organizations, people, activities, information, and resources
involved in moving a product or service from supplier to customer. Supply chain activities involve
the transformation of natural resources, raw materials, and components into a finished product
that is delivered to the end customer

13. Smart Farming
• Farming management concept based on observing, measuring and
responding to inter and intra-field variability in crops.
