This 19-minute video illustrated some

of the examples of devices that need to be
banned due to life-threatening failures. There
are many reasons why technology may not
deliver the performance or functionality we
require. Poor implementation, inadequate
maintenance, a lack of I.T. resource capacity,
the complexity of modern solutions, and
misaligning systems to business requirements
are just some of the causes.

This video was quite related to IOT Application and Challenges since it mainly
illustrates downsides of some of IOT-related devices. Having considered these
challenges, it is important to understand that planning ahead and management of
resources can help overcome almost any challenges that may come across.

In conclusion, the world of IoT faces significant challenges that must be

addressed to ensure its continued growth and success. From security and privacy
concerns to compatibility issues and limited processing power, these challenges
impact the development and growth of IoT in various industries. Addressing these
challenges through the use of encryption, data anonymization, standardization
efforts, and other solutions will be crucial for the continued success and growth of
IoT.

If I would be given the ability to create an IOT device,

I would choose a device that could be both an air freshener
and at the same time, a mosquito-repellent device. We all
know that air fresheners are great as they help prevent odors
occurring in the first place. By regularly releasing pleasant
smells into the air, it masks any unpleasant odors before and
after they occur. Thus, I believe that this device can lead to
many functions and I think it is also best for having a
mosquito-repellent features.

Way back when I was still in Senior High School, we did a thorough research about making different
mosquito-repellent perfumes. We tried many assessments to come up with a result of its effectiveness and
efficiency, and I just realized that this can be a perfect match with air fresheners for it could also help clean
the air and make it free of mosquitoes.
