INTRODUCTION
• It’s a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digitalmachines, objects, animals or people that are provided with the ability to
transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-
computer interaction.
• These things can be wide variety of devices such as Automobiles with
sensors, electric devices with sensor, mechanical or any object with the device
that capable of sending/receiving data to the internet.
• There’s a lot of noise at the moment about the internet of Things(or IoT) and
it’s impact on everything from the way we travel and do our shopping, the
way manufacturers keep track of inventory.
• In very short distant future, hundreds of millions, then billions, of individuals
with billions may be more smart devices will stretch the boundaries of current
system.
• It has potential to change the way we work, learn, entertain and innovate.
• Product with smart access and wireless connectivity are more common than
they were five years ago.
• It’s series of technology.
• Worldwide technology spending on the Internet of Things to reach $1.2 T in
2022(From: IDC)
• It is not only responsible for sensing things and send data to network but also
perform actions.
• Things can start to share their experience with other things.
THINGS
Sense + Communicate
Sense + Communicate
Order Chemical for manufacturing unit automatically
• Problem with manually:
• Solution: Smart Chemical storage tank
USE CASES
• Smart Metering
• Smart Water supply in the town
• Smart House
• Smart Lock
• Smart Air Conditioner
• Smart City
• Garbage collector
• Water supply system to control remotely without human interference
• Connected Vehicles

ADVANTAGES
• Communication
• Encourages the communication between devices.
• Physical devices are able to stay connected and hence the total
transparency is available with lesser inefficiencies and greater quality.
• Increase Business Opportunities
• Applicable to all vertical market
• Opens the door for new business opportunities in all industries.
• IoT-driven innovations build strong business cases, reduce time to market
and increase return of investments.
• Potential to transform the businesses approach/model
• Improve tracking of assets(machinery, tools, equipment etc) using sensors
and connectivity.
• Helps organizations benefits from real-time insights. And take immediate
actions.
• Efficient Processes
• Being connected with maximum number of devices to the internet, IoT allows
business to be smarter with real-time operational insights while reducing
operating costs.
• Improved Safety and Security
• Services integrated with sensors and video camera help monitor
workplace to ensure equipment safety and protect against physical
threats.
• Increase Productivity
• Productivity plays a key role in the profitability of any business.
• Cost Saving
• The improved process like asset utilization, productivity, real-time
insights into important data and process efficiency can save expenditures.
It will reduce the cost of maintenance as well as overall cost.
• Minimize Human efforts
TECHNOLOGY STACK
Sensors :
• Temp. and Humidity sensor, Proximity sensor, Pressure sensor, Smoke, Gas
and Alcohol Sensor etc.
