Lesson 1: Evolution of Internet of
Things
The Internet of Things (IoT), sometimes
referred to as the Internet of Objects, will
change everything—including ourselves.
This may seem like a bold statement,
but consider the impact the Internet
already has had on education,
SAMATRA, MIA/BSP3A
communication, business, science,
government, and humanity. Clearly, the
Internet is one of the most important and
powerful creations in all of human
history. Now consider that IoT
represents the next evolution of the
Internet, taking a huge leap in its ability
to gather, analyze, and distribute data
that we can turn into information,
knowledge, and, ultimately, wisdom. In
this context, IoT becomes immensely
important.
To hear more on the evolution of the
internet here's a video from  Professor
Iain Murray, who will explain what the
Internet of Things is, its history and how
we got here.

planet so we can be more proactive and
less reactive. Even so, several barriers
exist that threaten to slow IoT
development, including the transition to
IPv6, having a common set of
standards, and developing energy
sources for millions—even billions—of
minute sensors.
          However, as businesses,
governments, standards bodies, and
academia work together to solve these
challenges, IoT will continue to

educate you in plain and simple terms
so you can be well versed in IoT and
understand its potential to change
everything we know to be true today.

Lesson 2- Demystifying internet of
Things
This lesson will look at the different
definition of IoT to better understand
these technologies as they fit into the
real world.
What is the Internet of Things?
“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.”

What is the Internet of Things?
The Internet of Things (IoT) describes
the network of physical objects
—“things”—that are embedded with
sensors, software, and other
technologies for the purpose of
connecting and exchanging data with
other devices and systems over the
internet. These devices range from
ordinary household objects to
sophisticated industrial tools. With more
than 7 billion connected IoT devices
today, experts are expecting this
number to grow to 10 billion by 2020
and 22 billion by 2025.

Lesson 3 - Application of IoT in
Society
The impact of technology on business is
prominent. With a major shift in the
technological world, businesses need to
adapt to trending technologies to stay
ahead. It has bridged the gap between
digital and physical realities.
Smart Home        
Smart home technology, also often
referred to as home automation or
domotics (from the Latin "domus"
meaning home), provides homeowners
security, comfort, convenience and
energy efficiency by allowing them to
control smart devices, often by a smart
home app on their smartphone or other
networked device. A part of the internet
of things (IoT), smart home systems and
devices often operate together, sharing
consumer usage data among
themselves and automating actions
based on the homeowners' preferences.

Wearable Technology
Wearable technology, also known as
"wearables", is a category of electronic
devices that can be worn as
SAMATRA, MIA/BSP3A
accessories, embedded in clothing,
implanted in the user's body, or even
tattooed on the skin. The devices are
hands-free gadgets with practical uses,
powered by microprocessors and
enhanced with the ability to send and
receive data via the Internet.

Smarter cities
More than half of the world's population
now lives in cities—up from just 34% in
the 1960s. By mid-century that figure
could reach 66% according to the United
NationsLinks to an external site.. Cities
Page |3
are major contributors to climate
change, and some are already feeling its
impact through rising sea levels and
increasingly severe weather events.
But cities are also great incubators for
IoT-based systems that make urban life
more attractive, such as fast, convenient
transportation systems, safe street
lighting and energy-efficient buildings.
In Barcelona, a citywide WiFi and
information network linked to sensors,
software and a data analytics platform
has enabled the city to provide smart
water technology, automated street
lighting, remote-controlled irrigation for
parks and fountains, “on-demand” waste
pickups, digital bus routes and smart
parking meters. These IoT-enabled
urban services have dramatically
reduced traffic jams and pollution, as
well as water, light and energy usage.

Smarter cities
Many other cities are also putting the
Internet of Things to work. Chicago is
testing a city-wide network of sensors
called the “Array of Things”Links to an
external site.. The sensors serve as a
sort of fitness tracker for the city,
collecting data on air quality, climate,
traffic and other metrics. The information
is sent to an open data portal where
user groups can consume it for a range
of applications.
Las Vegas is using the Internet of
Things to improve traffic flow, while in
South Korea, the entire smart city of
SongdoLinks to an external site.  is built
around the Internet of Things. Songdo’s
networks are designed to ensure its
buildings, transportation system and
infrastructure are as efficient as possible

Smart Farming
Smart Farming is a farming
management concept using modern
technology to increase the quantity and
quality of agricultural products. Farmers
in the 21st century have access to GPS,
soil scanning, data management, and
Internet of Things technologies. By
precisely measuring variations within a
field and adapting the strategy
accordingly, farmers can greatly
increase the effectiveness of pesticides
and fertilizers, and use them more
selectively. Similarly, using Smart
Farming techniques, farmers can better
monitor the needs of individual animals
and adjust their nutrition
correspondingly, thereby preventing
disease and enhancing herd health.

Autonomous Car
An autonomous car is a vehicle capable
of sensing its environment and operating
without human involvement. A human
passenger is not required to take control
of the vehicle at any time, nor is a
human passenger required to be
present in the vehicle at all. An
autonomous car can go anywhere a
traditional car goes and do everything
that an experienced human driver does.
The Society of Automotive Engineers
(SAE) currently defines 6 levels of
driving automationLinks to an external
site. ranging from Level 0 (fully manual)
to Level 5 (fully autonomous). These
levels have been adopted by the U.S.
Department of Transportation.
