4. INTRODUCTION
• This “Internet of Things” (#IoT)
represents a remarkable
transformation of the way in which our
world will soon interact. Much like the
World Wide Web connected computers
to networks, and the next evolution
connected people to the Internet and
other people, IoT looks poised to
interconnect devices, people,
environments, virtual objects and
machines in ways that only science
fiction writers could have imagined.

5. INTRODUCTION- BRIEF HISTORY
• The actual term “Internet-of-things”
was coined by Kevin Ashton in 1999
during his work Procter&Gamble.
• Ashton who was working in supply
chain optimization, wanted to attract
senior management’s attention to
a new exciting technology called RFID.
Because the internet was the hottest
new trend in 1999 and because it
somehow made sense, he called his
presentation “Internet of Things”.

11. FEATURES - SENSING
• https://blogstats.wordpress.com/category/025-
internet-of-things-iot/
• Sensors are one of the primary modes of
realizing the full potential of value added to
the companies, communities, and individuals
which employ them for IoT purposes.
• In general, sensors host a heterogeneous
school of functions. They can detect
everything, from changes in temperature and
humidity to the amount of force and pressure
being simultaneously applied to thousands of
products on a manufacturing floor.
• Sensors can be broadly deployed to overcome
a host of challenges but in some cases, they
may need to be highly customized.
• It is this customization that enables sensors to
provide real added value for IoT
https://blogstats.wordpress.com/category/025-internet-of-things-iot/

13. FEATURES-ENERGY
• Energy and utility companies face a
variety of critical business challenges,
from energy efficiency to resource
conservation to reduction of carbon
emissions.
• IOT-enabled smart grids, smart meters
and smart appliances will be key
elements when solving these issues.
• The expertise and technology required
to ensure the ecosystems energy
companies and utilities create are
secure and efficient.
https://www.entrustdatacard.com/internet-of-things/

14. FEATURES-SAFETY
• Includes the safety of our personal data
and the safety of our physical well-being.
• Securing the endpoints, the networks,
and the data moving across all of it
means creating a security paradigm that
will scale.
• By framing IoT design with these
characteristics, multi-discipline teams
can work across their domains to make
tradeoffs in interaction design, software
architectures, and business models.
• Naturally a single product or service may
choose to dial up or dial down these
characteristics depending on the nature
of user experience and constraints
imposed by environmental and business
factors.

16. REAL WORLD EXAMPLES – SMART HOMES
• With IoT creating the buzz, ‘Smart Home’ is the most searched
IoT associated feature on Google. But, what is a Smart Home?
• Wouldn’t you love if you could switch on air conditioning before
reaching home or switch off lights even after you have left
home? Or unlock the doors to friends for temporary access even
when you are not at home. Don’t be surprised with IoT taking
shape companies are building products to make your life
simpler and convenient.
• Smart Home has become the revolutionary ladder of success in
the residential spaces and it is predicted Smart homes will
become as common as smartphones.
• The total amount of funding for Smart Home startups currently

wearables beyond 2020.
https://www.ericsson.com/thinkingahead/consumerlab/consumer-insights/wearable-
technology-and-the-internet-of-things
16

22. WEARABLES- FITBIT INC FUNCTIONALITY
In 2007, the benefits of tracking heart
rate were becoming more and more
well known, but getting those insights
was a bit more challenging. The
technologies were expensive,
uncomfortable and definitely not
wearable from day to night.
In clinical settings, researchers were
using electrocardiograms (EKGs),
which cost around $5000. Athletes and
weight loss hopefuls were using chest
straps, but those could irritate the skin
when worn for long periods of time.
To calculate blood flow, PurePulse
shines a green light onto the skin and
uses light detectors called photodiodes
to measure how much light is being
absorbed.
This measurement is used to
determine how many times your heart
beats per minute.
https://www.fitbit.com/technology
17

23. FITBIT – RESULTS/OUTCOMES
“Data is changing the role of patients, offering them a chance to play a more central part in their own
care. One way is by using mobile technology to monitor sleep patterns, heart rate, activity levels, and so
on. In development are even more advanced devices capable of continuously monitoring such key
metrics as blood oxygen, glucose levels, and even stress.”

26. SWOT : ADV/BENEFITS

27. BENEFITS
Sl.No Advantage Brief Explanation
1 Communication IoT encourages the
communication
between devices, also
famously known as
Machine-to-Machine
(M2M)
communication.
Because of this, the
physical devices are
able to stay connected
and hence the total
transparency is
available with lesser
inefficiencies and
greater quality.
Eg) Smart Homes
which is being
launched by major
companies like
Samsung, Philips etc.
21

28. SAMSUNG – COMMUNICATION IN IOT
• Smartness to a home with a SmartThings
Hub that wirelessly connects hundreds of
compatible smart devices including lights,
speakers, locks, thermostats, sensors,
and more, allowing them all to work
together.
• Know when doors, windows, and
cupboards are opened or closed, when
there’s movement inside or outside your
home, when there’s a water leak etc.
• Stay connected to all your physical
devices with a Smart Home
22

29. BENEFITS
Sl.No Advantages Brief Explanation
II Automation and Control Due to physical objects
getting connected and
controlled digitally and
centrally with wireless
infrastructure, there is
a large amount of
automation and control
in the workings.
Without human
intervention, the
machines are able to
communicate with each
other leading to faster
and timely output.
23

30. AUTOMATION AND CONTROL - CANARY
The Canary all-in-one home security system includes an
HD video camera and sensors for air quality, motion,
sound, temperature and vibration in one unit.
The system uses machine learning to determine what
constitutes normal activity in the home and lets you send
alerts to the Canary mobile app if something changes.
By learning normal patterns for such things as
temperature and ambient noise levels when people are
home, Canary can reduce the incidence of false alarms,
according to the vendor. You can configure alerts to be
sent to multiple users, including primary users and backup
users who receive alerts when you're away.

31. BENEFITS
Sl.No Advantages Brief Explanation
III Information It is obvious that having more
information helps making
better decisions. Whether it is
mundane decisions as needing
to know what to buy at the
grocery store or if your
company has enough widgets
and supplies, knowledge is
power and more knowledge is
better.
25

32. FITBIT - INFORMATION
https://www.fitbit.com/purepulse
Tracking heart rate and gathering information
on heart beats and rates, during workouts can
help you maintain the right intensity, find a
sweet spot for pace or avoid overtraining.
During workouts, Fitbit’s heart rate zones
helps to gauge how much effort you’re
exerting and see if you should dial it up or dial
it back. Afterward, it helps in your workout
summary in the Fitbit app to view your time in
each zone and to follow improvements over
time.
Gives more information on
Better Calorie Burn Tracking
Losing, gaining or maintaining weight is about
math: calories in vs. out.
By measuring how hard your heart is
working—both all day and during workouts—
you get a better measure of total calories
burned.
26

33. BENEFITS
Sl.No Advantages Brief Explanation
IV Monitor The second most obvious
advantage of IoT is
monitoring. Knowing the exact
quantity of supplies or the air
quality in your home, can
further provide more
information that could not
have previously been collected
easily.
For instance, knowing that
you are low on milk or printer
ink could save you another
trip to the store in the near
future. Furthermore,
monitoring the expiration of
products can and will improve
safety.
27

34. SEMTECH CORPORATION - MONITORING
• As part of a smart water infrastructure, the Telog 41 Series allows utilities to more
easily and economically deploy a broad range of wireless monitoring solutions to
address issues many municipalities face such as water shortages, flooding, budget
constraints and environmental regulations.
• By providing access to data and analytics for water pressure, flows, levels, leaks,
volumes and usage, Trimble is allowing utility companies to more proactively
address their many challenges, such as water conservation, damage and flooding,
and budget constraints

35. SWOT: DISADVATAGES

36. DISADVANTAGES
SL.No Disadvatages Brief Explanation
I Complexity As with all complex systems,
there are more opportunities
of failure. With the Internet
of Things, failures could sky
rocket.
For instance, let’s say that
both you and your spouse
each get a message saying
that your milk has expired,
and both of you stop at a
store on your way home, and
you both purchase milk. As a
result, you and your spouse
have purchased twice the
amount that you both need.
29

37. DISADVANTAGES
Sl.No Disadvantages Brief Explanation
II Privacy/Security With all of this IoT data being
transmitted, the risk of losing
privacy increases.
For instance, how well
encrypted will the data be
kept and transmitted with?
Do you want your neighbors
or employers to know what
medications that you are
taking or your financial
situation?
30

38. DISADVANTAGES
Sl.No Disadvanatges Brief Explanation
III Safety Imagine if a notorious hacker
changes your prescription.
Or if a store automatically
ships you an equivalent
product that you are allergic
to, or a flavor that you do not
like, or a product that is
already expired.
As a result, safety is
ultimately in the hands of the
consumer to verify any and all
automation.
31

39. DISADVANTAGES
Sl.No Disadvantages Brief Explnataion
IV Compatibility As devices from different
manufacturers will be
interconnected, the issue of
compatibility in tagging and
monitoring crops up. Although
this disadvantage may drop
off if all the manufacturers
agree to a common standard,
even after that, technical
issues will persist. Today, we
have Bluetooth-enabled
devices and compatibility
problems exist even in this
technology! Compatibility
issues may result in people
buying appliances from a
certain manufacturer, leading
to its monopoly in the market.

53. CONCLUSION

54. CONCLUSION
• In conclusion, the Internet of Things is closer to being implemented than the average
person would think. Most of the necessary technological advances needed for it have
already been made, and some manufacturers and agencies have already begun
implementing a small-scale version of it.
• The main reasons why it has not truly been implemented is the impact it will have on
the legal, ethical, security and social fields. Workers could potentially abuse it, hackers
could potentially access it, corporations may not want to share their data, and individual
people may not like the complete absence of privacy.
• For these reasons, the Internet of Things may very well be pushed back longer than it
truly needs to be.

55. CONCLUSION
• Should companies and businesses invest financial
and human resources, deploy and use the selected
topic/technology/methodology? Why YES, or Why
NOT?
• YES
• Today, Big Blue is putting that tiny technology to
work, developing a multi-application gas sensor
that could help airports detect and track
biochemical threats, determine whether the steak
in your fridge has spoiled, or even diagnose breast
cancer and other diseases simply by analyzing your
breath.
http://webinvigna.it/3-cambiamenti-iot/
45

56. CONCLUSION
• Should we (CS/IS Department) recommend selected advanced
topic/technology for active use in CS/IS curricula, for example,
as a separate DIS or Advanced Topics course?
• Yes
• The Internet has deeply rooted itself into our schools, and e-
learning has become common practice in the American school
system. But the applications of the IoT in education are
numerous, and the implications for this disruption are
tremendous.
• The surge in connected technology means that instructors do
not need to manually grade tests on paper or perform other
routine tasks.
• Instead, professors can focus on the actual, personal
instruction that is most valuable to their students. Devices
connected to the cloud allow professors to gather data on their
students and then determine which ones need the most
individual attention and care.
• These statistics also let teachers properly adjust their lesson
plans for future classes. http://www.slideshare.net/galex68/architecture-for-
