MRITS/IOT/SENSORS AND DEVICES/MR. T. PAVAN VINAYAK UNIT-I Introduction to IoT


Introduction of IoT
Internet of Things (IoT) comprises things that have unique identities and are connected to the Internet.

While many existing devices, such as networked computers or 4G-enabled mobile phones, already have some
form of unique identities and are also connected to the Internet.

The focus on IoT is in the configuration, control and networking via the Internet of devices or "things" that
are traditionally not associated with the Internet.

These include devices such as thermostats, utility meters, a Bluetooth-connected headset, irrigation pumps
and sensors, or control circuits for an electric car's engine.

Introduction to IoT (Cntd)..
Internet of Things is a new revolution in the capabilities of the endpoints that are connected to
the Internet, and is being driven by the advancements in capabilities (in combination with
lower costs) in sensor networks, mobile devices, wireless communications, networking and
cloud technologies.

Therefore, the major industry players are excited by the prospects of new markets for their
products. The products include hardware and software components for IoT endpoints, hubs, or
control centers of the IoT universe.

DEFINITION OF IOT
A dynamic global network infrastructure with self-configuring capabilities based on standard
and interoperable communication protocols where physical and virtual "things" have identities,
physical attributes, and virtual personalities and use intelligent interfaces, and are seamlessly
integrated into the information network, often communicate data associated with users and
their environments.

Or

The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects-devices, vehicles, buildings and
other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity-that
enables objects to collect and exchange data.

Inventor of IoT
Kevin Ashton is sometimes called the “Inventor of IoT” since the first used the term in 1999 to
describe a system where the Internet is connected to the physical world via ubiquitous sensors.
He is a serial entrepreneur and co-founded the Auto-ID Center at MIT.

 Interoperable Communication Protocols

 Unique Identity

 Integrated into Information Network

MRITS/IOT/SENSORS AND DEVICES/MR. T. PAVAN VINAYAK UNIT-I Introduction to IoT


Dynamic & Self-Adapting
 IoT devices and systems may have the capability to dynamically adapt with the changing contexts and
take actions based on their operating conditions, user's context, or sensed environment.

 For example, consider a surveillance system comprising of a number of surveillance cameras. The
surveillance cameras can adapt their modes (to normal or infra-red night modes) based on whether it
is day or night.

 Cameras could switch from lower resolution to higher resolution modes when any motion is detected
and alert nearby cameras to do the same.

 In this example, the surveillance system is adapting itself based on the context and changing (e.g..
dynamic) conditions.

Self-Configuring
 IoT devices may have self-configuring capability, allowing a large number of devices to work together
to provide certain functionality (such as weather monitoring).

 These devices have the ability configure themselves (in association with the loT infrastructure), setup
the networking, and fetch latest software upgrades with minimal manual or user intervention.

Interoperable Communication Protocols
 loT devices may support a number of interoperable communication protocols and can communicate
with other devices and also with the infrastructure.

MRITS/IOT/SENSORS AND DEVICES/MR. T. PAVAN VINAYAK UNIT-I Introduction to IoT


Unique Identity
 Each IoT device has a unique identity and a unique identifier (such as an IP address or a URL).

 IoT systems may have intelligent interfaces which adapt based on the context, allow communicating
with users and the environmental contexts.

 loT device interfaces allow users to query the devices, monitor their status, and control them remotely,
in association with the control, configuration and management infrastructure.

MRITS/IOT/SENSORS AND DEVICES/MR. T. PAVAN VINAYAK UNIT-I Introduction to IoT


Integrated into Information Network
 IoT devices are usually integrated into the information network that allows them to communicate and
exchange data with other devices and systems.

 IoT devices can be dynamically discovered in the network, by other devices and/or the network, and have
the capability to describe themselves (and their characteristics) to other devices or user applications.

 For example, a weather monitoring node can describe its monitoring capabilities to another connected
node so that they can communicate and exchange data.

 Integration into the information network helps in making loT systems "smarter" due to the collective
intelligence of the individual devices in collaboration with the infrastructure.

 Thus, the data from a large number of connected weather monitoring IoT nodes can be aggregated and
analyzed to predict the weather.
