This document is a report on the Internet of Things (IoT) written by Rohit Mahali for his mentor Mr. Biswanath Sethi. The report defines IoT as connected devices that can collect and exchange data without human intervention. It discusses why IoT is useful for automation and remote control. Examples are given of applications in various industries. Challenges of IoT include connectivity, security, and managing large amounts of collected data in the cloud. The conclusion is that while complex, IoT has potential to transform many businesses and lives.

3. 3
What is IoT ?
 Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of devices connected to the Internet with
the ability to collect and exchange data from users or environment with no
human intervention.
 The device or the ‘thing’ in IoT could be any device embedded with
electronics, software and sensor like a smart refrigerator, a smart air
conditioner, lights in household, connected security systems or even a
person with a heart monitor or an automobile.

4. 4
Why IoT
? We are lazy
 We want to automate everything
 We want to control everything remotely
 We want to see data in real-time

5. 5
 Sensors are fitted everywhere across every
devices collecting real-time data
consistently.
 Every device has its unique id which makes
the communication possible among them.

6. 6
(InBillions)
 Is it possible to assign addresses to all the devices in the world?
Yes, IPv6 has a huge address space of 2128

7. 7
 Tons of data are collected from
devices all over the world.
 Where could we store this huge
sum of data?
Next part is “Analytics”
The answer is “Cloud”.

8. 8
Analytics deals with the
extraction of meaningful
information from big data.
Organizations apply analytics to
business data to describe,
predict, and improve business
performance.
The data collected from devices is quite large and complex that
becomes difficult to analyse using traditional data processing
techniques, we call those data “Big Data”

9. 9
The term "Internet of Things" is coined by Kevin Ashton in
1999.
Early example, 1982, Coke machine at Carnegie Mellon
University was connected to internet which reported its
inventory and temperature.

Example
 The camera can monitor the road for
congestion, accident and weather
conditions and communicate that’s data
to a gateway that combines it with data
from other such cameras creating an
intelligent citywide traffic system.

14. 14
Lets say city’s intelligent
traffic system detects
massive congestion due
to an accident.

15. 15
 That insight can be sent to the
citywide transportation system
which can analyse and derive
optimum routes around the
accident and send those
instructions to city’s digital signed
systems to guide drivers around
the accident.

CHALLENGES
Sensing a complex environment
Innovative ways to sense and deliver
information from physical world to the
cloud.
Connectivity
Variety of wired and wireless standards
are required to enable different
application needs.
Power
Many IoT applications need to run for
years over battery and reduce the
overall energy consumption.

17. 17
Security
Protecting user’s privacy, manufacturer’s IP and blocking malicious
activity.
Complexity
IoT application development needs to be easy for all developers
not just to experts.
Cloud
IoT applications require end-to-end solutions including cloud
services.

18. 18
CONCLUSION
While IoT is complex and poses some risks and
is still evolving, many pioneers have started
adopting this technology.
IoT can help innovate new process and
initiatives that could transform businesses,
lives and the world.

19. 19
 We are also trying to understand what the many opportunities and
challenges are going to be as more and more devices start to join the
IoT.
For now the best thing that we can do is educate ourselves about what
the IoT is and the potential impacts that can be seen on how we work
and live.
