Functional Blocks of an IoT Ecosystem
The functioning blocks of Internet of Things devices vary based on their complexity and intention. But some
of the common usable functioning blocks of IoT devices are Sensors, Processors, Connectivity Modules,
Power supply, Memory and storage, User Interface, Security, Actuators, & data Processing &
analytics

 Sensors are fundamental building blocks of IoT networks.

 Sensors are the foundational elements found in smart objects—the “things”in

the Internet of Things.

 Smart objects are any physical objects that contain embedded technology

to sense and/or interact with their environment in a meaningful way by

being interconnected and enabling communication among themselves

or an external agent.
