IOT TIZIMI HAQIDA
Technology is playing a major role in our lives. The advent of different types of technologies has changed the way of our living and working. The discovery of computers and the internet has brought a revolutionary change in the world. People at present mostly depend upon the internet and computer to perform their maximum tasks. Not only it has changed our lifestyle but also made it comfortable. Internet of things is also an aspect of the internet. We will discuss this technology, its history, application, and future scope in the essay provided below.
What is meant by the Internet of Things (IoT)?
IoT refers to the collection of different types of daily life appliances and gadgets used in different sectors that are broadening the aspect of the internet. The connectivity with the internet enables these devices to share and receive data with different objects. Internet of things simply means the network of devices that are able to share and receive data and information with other devices via using the internet.
The things or objects in the Internet of Things above are well equipped with sensors, software, and machine learning techniques. The use of such objects reduces human interference in doing any of the work. The advent of IoT has totally changed the life of human beings by reducing their workload and time. The advancing technology day by day is giving rise to different smart objects thereby improving the standard of living of human beings.
An Account on Concept of IoT
How interesting it is that the devices are able to communicate with each other or human beings? This is all possible because of advancements in internet technology and the development of smart devices.
The emergence of the concept of the integration of smart devices stated as ‘Internet of Things’ came into existence in the year 1982.
A Coca-Cola vending machine at Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania was the first smart appliance that was termed as ARPANET device.
The word ‘Internet of Things’ for first time was used by Peter T. Lewis in his speech in the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation held in Washington D.C. in the year 1985.
The Phrase ‘Internet of Things' was first time used by Kevin Ashton in the year 1999 and thus he is regarded as the father of IoT.
It was emphasized by Kevin Ashton that every device needs short-range mobile transceivers embedded in it so that it can establish communication with human beings and other devices.
Several other important works and improvements in this field have taken place in successive years and the percentage of people using this concept has also increased as the years passed by.
IoT Architecture
The objects in Internet of Things have a definite constitution of technologies that enables them to work efficiently by using internet connection. These devices are architecture that is a combination of several technologies. The technologies that are embedded in IoT are enlisted below:
Different Types of Sensors- IoT devices have sensors embedded in them so that these devices can sense whatever is happening in the environment. It is working in the same way as the human sense organs are working. The connection of sensors with the internet helps it to collect information from the surroundings.
Internet Connection- An internet connection is a must to enable the sensors in the devices to connect it with other devices so that the sending and receiving of data becomes convenient.
Several Computing Devices- These devices help in making the process of data collection, analyzing, and sending more easily.
Machine Learning and Analytics Devices- The use of machine learning and advanced analytics by the Internet of things make this process more efficient. It helps the devices to collect maximum data in very less time.
Artificial Intelligence- Artificial intelligence and machine learning help the devices to develop connectivity with other devices in the IoT network in a smarter way. In another way, we can state that it smoothen the process and helps in reducing human interferences in performing any kind of task. Example: Alexa, Siri, etc.
Need of IoT
The developments of a range of technologies have enhanced the lifestyle of human beings. Isn’t it true? Digitalization is taking place in India and the world at a very fast pace. Thus in order to be in the pace with the digital world, the network of smart devices is very essential. It is a technology that helps in establishing a good interaction between the different devices among themselves and also with human beings.
Moreover, the emergence of devices embedded with sensors and advanced technologies reduces the workload of human beings. It helps in finishing different tasks in less time along with developing coordination with the activities taking place in the surroundings. The development of the network of these smart devices is not only useful in household works but also aid in commercial sector tasks. Thus, IoT in the 21st century has become an essential requirement in different sectors all around the world.
