Presentation covers wide information about IoT, how IoT works, it's applications, barriers to IoT .
It also contains small video on working of IoT, which was created by Think Academy.
The "Internet of things" (IoT) is becoming an increasingly growing topic of conversation both in the workplace and outside of it. It's a concept that not only has the potential to impact how we live but also how we work.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction.

IoT describes a system where items in the physical world, and
sensors within or attached to these items, are connected to
the Internet via wireless and wired Internet connections.
These sensors can use various types of local area
connections such as RFID, NFC, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and
Zigbee. Sensors can also have wide area connectivity such as
GSM, GPRS, 3G, and LTE.

things—using data they gathered without any help from us -- we would
be able to track and count everything, and greatly reduce waste, loss
and cost. We would know when things needed replacing, repairing or
recalling, and whether they were fresh or past their best. We need to
empower computers with their own means of gathering information, so
they can see, hear and smell the world for themselves, in all its random
glory. RFID and sensor technology enable computers to observe,
identify and understand the world—without the limitations of human-
entered data.”

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.
