The document discusses the Internet of Things (IoT). It defines IoT as physical objects embedded with sensors that can collect and exchange data over the internet. It describes how IoT works through technologies like RFID, sensors, and wireless connections. It also outlines some applications of IoT like smart homes, manufacturing, healthcare, and more. Finally, it discusses technological challenges and criticisms of IoT, such as issues with privacy, security, and political manipulation.

Internet of things (IoT)
- 1. Internet of Things (IoT) Presentation By: Tarika Verma
- 2. Plan of Presentation What is Internet of Things? How IoT Works? Current Status & Future Prospect of IoT Few Applications of IoT Technological Challenges of IoT Criticisms & Controversies of IoT
- 3. What is IoT? 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
- 4. "Things," in the IoT sense, can refer to a wide variety of devices such as heart monitoring implants, biochip transponders on farm animals, electric clams in coastal waters, automobiles with built-in sensors, DNA analysis devices for environmental/food/pathogen monitoring or field operation devices that assist fire-fighters in search and rescue operations. These devices collect useful data with the help of various existing technologies and then autonomously flow the data between other devices
- 5. History The concept of the Internet of Things first became popular in 1999, through the Auto-ID Center at MIT and related market-analysis publications. Radio-frequency identification (RFID) was seen as a prerequisite for the IoT at that point. If all objects and people in daily life were equipped with identifiers, computers could manage and inventory them. Besides using RFID, the tagging of things may be achieved through such technologies as near field communication, barcodes, QR codes, bluetooth, and digital watermarking.
- 6. How IoT works? Internet of Things is not the result of a single novel technology; instead, several complementary technical developments provide capabilities that taken together help to bridge the gap between the virtual and physical world. These capabilities include: Communication and cooperation Addressability Identification Sensing Actuation Embedded information processing Localization User interfaces
- 8. The Structure of IoT The IoT can be viewed as a gigantic network consisting of networks of devices and computers connected through a series of intermediate technologies where numerous technologies like RFIDs, wireless connections may act as enablers of this connectivity. Tagging Things : Real-time item traceability and addressability by RFIDs. Feeling Things : Sensors act as primary devices to collect data from the environment. Shrinking Things : Miniaturization and Nanotechnology has provoked the ability of smaller things to interact and connect within the “things” or “smart devices.” Thinking Things : Embedded intelligence in devices through sensors has formed the network connection to the Internet. It can make the “things” realizing the intelligent control.

- 13. Few Applications of IoT Building and Home automation Manufacturing Medical and Healthcare systems Media Environmental monitoring Infrastructure management Energy management Transportation Better quality of life for elderly etc.
- 15. Internet of Things is the next stage of the information revolution and referenced the inter- connectivity of everything from urban transport to medical devices to household appliances. Integration with the Internet implies that devices will use an IP address as a unique identifier. However, due to the limited address space of IPv4 (which allows for 4.3 billion unique addresses), objects in the IoT will have to use IPv6 to accommodate the extremely large address space required. Objects in the IoT will not only be devices with sensory capabilities, but also provide actuation capabilities (e.g., bulbs or locks controlled over the Internet).
- 16. TECHNOLOGICAL CHALLENGES OF IoT At present IoT is faced with many challenges, such as: Scalability Technological Standardization Inter operability Discovery Software complexity Data volumes and interpretation Power Supply Interaction and short range communication Wireless communication Fault tolerance
- 17. Criticisms and Controversies of IoT Scholars and social observers and pessimists have doubts about the promises of the ubiquitous computing revolution, in the areas as: Privacy Security Autonomy and Control Social control Political manipulation Design Environmental impact Influences human moral decision making
