IOT 

In simple word IoT is simply the network of interconnected things/devices which are embedded with sensors, software, network connectivity and

necessary electronics that enables them to collect and exchange data making them responsive.

More than a concept Internet of Things is essentially an architectural framework which allows integration and data exchange between the

physical world and computer systems over existing network infrastructure.



IoT (Internet of Things) is an advanced automation and analytics system which exploits networking, sensing, big data, and artificial intelligence

technology to deliver complete systems for a product or service. These systems allow greater transparency, control, and performance when

applied to any industry or system.

IoT systems have applications across industries through their unique flexibility and ability to be suitable in any environment. They enhance data

collection, automation, operations, and much more through smart devices and powerful enabling technology.



This tutorial aims to provide you with a thorough introduction to IoT. It introduces the key concepts of IoT, necessary in using and deploying IoT

Advantages of IoT

Following are the advantages of IoT (Internet of Things):

➨IoT network benefits not one but all i.e. individuals, society, stake holders of businesses etc. due to the fact that IoT network saves time and

money. IoT systems delivers faster and accurately with minimum utilization of energy. This improves quality of life.

➨It is used for patient monitoring i.e. various types of wireless sensors are installed on the patient body which communicate with the IoT

network and provides all the required information of the patient under treatment.

➨IoT concept is used in home security devices which are monitored and controlled either locally or remotely using easy to use applications

available on mobile phones or smartphones. Typical IoT devices are security alarm, Camera, sensors, door lock etc. are used in home

automation environment.

➨IoT is used in asset and individual tracking, inventory control, energy conservation, shipping etc.

➨It is similar to M2M but it has applications beyond M2M. M2M is used only for machine to machine communication. In IoT, things

communicate themselves to its owner indicating its location and conditions.
