The document discusses the Internet of Things (IoT), which allows machines to communicate with each other through sensors and connectivity to share data and take actions. It describes IoT as a network of physical objects that can interact using technologies like RFID, sensors, wireless communication, energy harvesting, and cloud computing. The document outlines the architecture of IoT including sensor, gateway/network, management service, and application layers. It discusses current and future applications of IoT in areas like smart cities, healthcare, agriculture, and transportation. Major challenges of IoT include big data explosion, security/privacy, and power efficiency. The future of IoT is presented as increasingly connected smart homes, grids, cities, and factories.
3. What is IoT ?
A network of Physical Objects that can interact
with each other to share information and take
Action.
The term was first proposed by Kevin Ashton in
1999.
The concept of IoT first became popular at the
Auto-ID center, MIT.
IoT can also be pronounced as Machine to
Machine (M2M) Technology.
