1. IOT:
Working with IoT Devices
Collect and Transmit Data : For this purpose sensors are widely used they are
used as per requirements in different application areas.
Actuate device based on triggers produced by sensors or processing
devices: If certain conditions are satisfied or according to user’s requirements
if certain trigger is activated then which action to perform that is shown by
Actuator devices.
Receive Information: From network devices, users or devices can take certain
information also for their analysis and processing purposes.
Communication Assistance: Communication assistance is the phenomenon of
communication between 2 networks or communication between 2 or more
IoT devices of same or different networks. This can be achieved by different
communication protocols like: MQTT, Constrained Application Protocol,
ZigBee, FTP, HTTP etc.
