Internet of Things (IoT) - We Are at the Tip of An IcebergDr. Mazlan Abbas
You are likely benefitting from The Internet of Things (IoT) today, whether or not you’re familiar with the term. If your phone automatically connects to your car radio, or if you have a smartwatch counting your steps, congratulations! You have adopted one small piece of a very large IoT pie, even if you haven't adopted the name yet.
IoT may sound like a business buzzword, but in reality, it’s a real technological revolution that will impact everything we do. It's the next IT Tsunami of new possibility that is destined to change the face of technology, as we know it. IoT is the interconnectivity between things using wireless communication technology (each with their own unique identifiers) to connect objects, locations, animals, or people to the Internet, thus allowing for the direct transmission of and seamless sharing of data.
IoT represents a massive wave of technical innovation. Highly valuable companies will be built and new ecosystems will emerge from bridging the offline world with the online into one gigantic new network. Our limited understanding of the possibilities hinders our ability to see future applications for any new technology. Mainstream adoption of desktop computers and the Internet didn’t take hold until they became affordable and usable. When that occurred, fantastic and creative new innovation ensued. We are on the cusp of that tipping point with the Internet of Things.
IoT matters because it will create new industries, new companies, new jobs, and new economic growth. It will transform existing segments of our economy: retail, farming, industrial, logistics, cities, and the environment. It will turn your smartphone into the command center for the both digital and physical objects in your life. You will live and work smarter, not harder – and what we are seeing now is only the tip of the iceberg.
The Internet of Everything – global connectivity of digital devices and all things electronic – is set to offer consumers a mobile world of personalisation and convenience that transcends smartphones and handsets.
More than 1 billion cell phones and 179 billion mobile applications downloaded every year, mobile
development is surely one of the imaginative and effectively developing division. The mobile
application business sector is seemingly overwhelmed by Google applications (Gmail, Maps,
Search), Social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Youtube) and Gaming applications (Angry
winged creatures, Temple Run). Enormous players like Walmart, Bank of America and Amazon are
utilizing mobile applications for marking, enhancing client engagement, direct showcasing and so
forth. Little and medium size organizations are additionally taking after the mobile pattern,
understanding that a viable mobile system includes more than only a mobile-accommodating site.
Exploring the world of mobile and how marketers can use this space to connect with consumers in brand new ways.

Part 1 covers mobile 1.0 (history of mobile, mobile web/WAP sites, SMS, QR codes)
Part 2 takes a deep dive into mobile apps (Apple, Android, Blackberry, etc)
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data.
IoT allows objects to be sensed and controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure, creating opportunities for more direct integration between the physical world and computer-based systems, and resulting in improved efficiency, accuracy, and economic benefit.

9.1 Mobile Phones
Years ago, if you were away from your phone or office you had to look for a pay phone. For a dime, you could make a telephone call that lasted a few minutes. Pay phones were ubiquitous, with several often lined up in a row at heavily populated public places. Sometimes, there was an actual phone booth with a folding glass door that enabled people to make phone calls in relative privacy. The comic book hero Superman made these famous as the place he transformed from Clark Kent to the superhero. But today, the pay phone and the phone booth are little more than a memory. Now, calling from the road is as easy as reaching into your pocket.
Smartphones
One of the most significant new computing devices in the last few decades is the smartphone. During the 1990s, three major technological developments gained popularity. First, were cell phones and their service plans, which became much less expensive. By the end of the decade, almost everyone had one. Second, a new type of electronic device emerged at the same time called the PDA or Personal Digital Assistant. These small, handheld computers, initially sold by Palm and Visor, offered calendars, datebooks, organizational software, and gaming applications. Third, laptops were increasingly able to surf the Internet, provided their owners could locate a Wi-Fi hotspot. As email became more essential, laptops were often carried just to check email. By the end of the 1990s, businessmen and women were often lugging around all three devices to remain as productive as possible. Could all three merge into one?
This dream was realized in 2004, when the BlackBerry® smartphone was introduced for AT&T and T-Mobile cell service. A smartphone combined the features of a PDA with a cell phone and the ability to check email. It also served as a flash drive, media player for music and video, and picture viewer. And it added a QWERTY keyboard, with keys that were smaller but laid out in the same configuration as a standard computer keyboard. Soon, other competitors emerged and BlackBerry® quickly lost market share, most notably to the Apple® iPhone®, of which 6 million were sold in 2007, its first year on the market (http://www.statista.com/statistics/12743/worldwide-AppleiPhone-sales-since-3rd-quarter-2007/).
iPhone®
Apple®'s eagerly awaited iPhone® capitalized on the huge following it had established with its iPod® handheld music and video players and Macintosh® computers. Duplicating the same elegance and user-friendliness with its iPhone®, Apple® began to dominate the market, as its iPhone® App Store℠ enabled users to download applications that fit their own unique needs. TIME™ Magazine named it as the invention of the year in 2007. In 2009, the iPhone® 3.0 included a camera, 3G connection speeds, and voice control. At the same time, Apple® also improved the iPhone®'s GPS functionality. In 2012, the iPhone® 4S came in 16- to 64-GB memory options, with prices between .
NFC is usually associated with the term, "mobile wallet". Consumers can make their payments using their phones in restaurants, public transport's networks and supermarkets.

2. NFC: REVOLUTIONIZING THE PAYMENT 2
Abstract
Near field communication technology is a wireless technology, allowing two devices to
communicate when in close proximity. The technology has given rise to the digital wallet which
is a virtual wallet anyone can have on their phone. This enables a person to store payment
information in their digital wallet, negating the need to carry a physical payment method. Apple
and Google are the main two companies offering digital wallets using near field communication
technology. Apple Pay and Google Wallet are competing head to head for contactless payment
users. Near field communication may benefit people in other ways, including making life easier
at home. The healthcare industry may also benefit from near field communication.
3. NFC: REVOLUTIONIZING THE PAYMENT 3
NFC: Revolutionizing the Payment Process
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a wireless transmission technology recently
developed for mobile phones to facilitate mobile commerce (m-commerce). Newer phones come
with a NFC tag already installed. To use the technology, a business places a NFC tag in the
payment device used at checkout. By touching their NFC enabled smartphone to the payment
device and confirming their purchase, a customer’s transaction is completed without cash or a
credit/debit card (Haag & Cummings, 2013). NFC is revolutionizing the payment process by
only requiring shoppers to use their phones to make purchases, leaving their wallets and purses at
home. Blue tooth technology already allows two devices (in proximity of 20 meters or less) to
communicate with each other, whereas NFC technology requires proximity to be within one
inch. Also, NFC allows communication using a fraction of the power required by blue tooth,
connects much faster than blue tooth (Profis, 2014), and uses encrypted channels to send and
receive data for better security (Near Field Communication, 2015). Apple and Google are two
companies that have implemented digital wallets featuring NFC to make paying for goods easier.
Apple Pay and Google Wallet are catching on very quickly with buyers as more sellers
implement NFC devices into their existing payment systems. NFC may revolutionize other
industries as it is doing with how individuals pay for products.
Digital Wallets
Apple Pay
Apple leads the way with their digital wallet called Apple Pay. Chief Executive Officer
Tim Cook stated two out of every three dollars spent using contactless payment systems are
through Apple Pay (Snyder, 2015). With a 66% market share in this space, Apple Pay is gaining
in popularity. Apple Pay is easy to use, but not yet available for every customer. An iPhone 6 or
4. NFC: REVOLUTIONIZING THE PAYMENT 4
6Plus is required. The customer’s bank also has to be one of the many banks that allow Apple’s
service to be used. A person with an iPhone 6 and a bank listed at www.macworld.com, simply
enters their debit/credit card information in the phone’s settings tab. Once the payment
information is entered, the person is ready to shop. A list of retailers using Apple Pay is
available through the previous web address. To check out, the customer touches the phone to the
pay pad and, when prompted, scans their fingerprint on the fingerprint scanner already on the
phone and the transaction is completed in a single stroke (Yamshon, 2015). Apple, thus far, is
the only big player in the digital wallet market but Google is ready to join them.
Google Wallet
Google’s digital wallet is very much the same as Apple Pay. The customer enters the
payment information in a smartphone and shops at places accepting Google Wallet. Google’s
main obstacle was getting their application installed on phones. Apple manufactures its own
phone and could install Apple Pay before the phone even went to market. However, Google uses
companies like Samsung and Nokia to build phones for use with Google’s Android software. To
complicate matters further, mobile carriers AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile developed their own
version of a digital wallet in a joint venture called Softcard. Softcard was preinstalled by phone
makers, leaving the customer unaware of Google as an alternative. For these reasons, Google
had trouble getting their wallet into the hands of buyers. To solve this problem, Google has
acquired Softcard and reached a deal with the aforementioned carriers to have Google Wallet
preinstalled on all Android phones that are sold. Because of their deal with Softcard, Google
Wallet is now poised to compete with Apple Pay (Snyder, 2015). Only time will tell if Google
will take market share away from Apple in the contactless payment sphere.
Future of NFC
5. NFC: REVOLUTIONIZING THE PAYMENT 5
NFC has certainly helped make paying for products quicker and more efficient.
Additionally, there are many other ways it can make our daily lives better. For instance, there is
a company called Lockitron. They sell a door lock that gives Android users the ability to
program their phone to unlock doors to their home by simply swiping their phone near the lock.
Individuals can also buy NFC Tags and program them to help with daily chores. By placing a
tag on a washer, a phone swipe could activate a wash cycle timer on the phone (Profis, 2012).
One industry that potentially could benefit from NFC is the healthcare industry. Healthcare costs
continue to rise but, with better information technology, costs might be lowered. Using NFC
enabled smartphones, healthcare workers could better track patients between doctors and the
materials used to help them. The human error associated with data entry would also be lessened
by NFC technology (Marcus, et al., 2009). As NFC plays a larger role in people’s lives,
certainly more creative ways to use the technology will emerge, creating the next wave of new
technology companies
Conclusion
The use of digital wallets will be pervasive in our society. The ease of use and better
security makes digital wallets more attractive than the alternative of a physical payment method.
NFC has been around for a while but, until now, the applications were not available. The digital
wallet may launch NFC mainstream, but NFC will permeate further in people’s lives. People in
New York already use smartphones enabled with NFC to pay for bus and taxi fares (Louis,
2013). Movie theaters and concert promoters are implementing NFC technology to replace
antiquated paper tickets. Airlines are jumping on board as well, with smartphone ticketing. A
person’s phone could potentially store not only their boarding pass, but their passport, car rental

confirmation, and hotel confirmation. Thanks to NFC, all of this could be accomplished with a
phone swipe and confirmation.
