Introduction to Internet of Things (IoT)
What is IoT?
Network of Physical Objects Embedded with Electronic Devices Data Exchange
IoT is a network of physical
devices, vehicles, home
appliances, etc.,
The IoT devices are
embedded with electronics,
software, sensors,
actuators, and network
connectivity.
IoT devices connects
with each other and
computing resources to
exchange & process
data.
What is IoT?
4
IoT is the network of physical objects or things embedded
with electronics, softwares and network connectivity
which enables these objects to collect and exchange
data.
It is direct integration
between the physical
world and computer
based systems
resulting in improved
efficiency, accuracy and
economic benefit.
What is IoT?
5
Term first proposed by Kevi Asthon.
• Enables devices/objects
to observe, identify and
understand a situation.
• The IoT is significant
because an object that
can represent itself
digitally becomes
something greater than
the object by itself.
What is IoT?
6
• Physical objects being connected in the network are
able to identify themselves to other devices.
• IoT is closely identified with Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) as the method of communication,
although it also may include other sensor technologies,
wireless technologies or QR codes.
IoT Services
7
The functionality of smart devices can be abstracted as a service and an IoT
application can be built by combining the smart devices with these services that
help to address challenges of day-to-day activities.

Sensors
A sensor is a device that is able to
detect changes in an environment.
A Good sensor is one :
• Which is sensitive to the
phenomenon that it measures.
• It should not be sensitive to other
physical phenomena.
• It should not modify the
measured phenomenon during
the measurement process.
Sensors/ IoT Devices
• Sensors or devices collect minute data
from the environment in which they are
deployed.
• The collected data can have various
degrees of complexities ranging from a
simple temperature monitoring sensor or
a complex full video feed.
• A device can have multiple sensors that
can bundle together to do more than just
sense things.

Product quality control:
▸ IoT sensors collect aggregate product data and other third-party syndicated data from
various stages of a product cycle.
▸This data relates to the composition of raw materials used, temperature and working
environment, wastes, the impact of transportation etc. on the final products
▸If used in the final product, the IoT device can provide data about the customer
sentiments on using the product. All of these inputs can later be analyzed to identify and
correct quality issues.
Packaging Optimization
54
▸ By using IoT sensors in products and/or packaging,
manufacturers can gain insights into the usage
patterns and handling of product from multiple
customers.
▸ Smart tracking mechanisms can also trace product
deterioration during transit and impact of weather,
road and other environment variables on the product.
▸ This will offer insights that can be used to re-
engineer products and packaging for better
performance in both customer experience and cost of
packaging.
Operations/Manufacturing
55
Digital/ Connected Factory
▸IoT enabled machinery can transmit operational information to the partners like
original equipment manufacturers and to field engineers.
▸This will enable operation managers and factory heads to remotely manage the
factory units and take advantage of process automation and optimization.
56
Inventory Management
▸IoT applications permit the monitoring of events
across a supply chain.
▸Using these systems, the inventory is tracked
and traced globally on a line-item level and the
users are notified of any significant deviations
from the plans.
▸ This provides cross-channel visibility into
inventories and managers are provided with
realistic estimates of the available material, work
in progress and estimated the arrival time of new
materials.
▸Ultimately this optimizes supply and reduces
shared costs in the value chain.
Services/Support
57
Insurance Industry
▸ With the help of IoT and telematics data,
insurance companies can get data for
vehicle insurance, health insurance.
▸ This data will be very useful for insurer or
those who are insurance agents.
▸ They will be able to capture customer data
and improve communication, create new
strategies and also save on costs.
▸ IoT will be adding to the revenue
opportunity by evaluating client’s risk.
Data Privacy & Security
▸ With so many devices existing in the market,
there is a sharing of data and information on
a massive level.
▸ There is high chance of data manipulation
which can lead to risking the customer’s data
or sharing of highly personal data.
▸ The Internet of Things can help in lessening
the worries of such consequences.
▸ It will protect the customer’s data from
breaches and also secure the payment
process and information management.
Wearables
60
▸Health- and fitness-oriented wearable devices that offer biometric measurements such
as heart rate, perspiration levels, and even complex measurements like oxygen levels in
the bloodstream are also becoming available.
▸Some additional capabilities of wearable devices are more mundane, but might also
provide information that could be useful in adjusting environmental controls.
▸For Example: Wearable devices could tell if you have your jacket on in the car or if it's
just in the back seat. This could be helpful in keeping the car temperature at a
comfortable level.
▸IoT enabled wearables can be used to measure perspiration levels that could also be
used as a data point for adjusting both temperature and humidity.

security resources.
Invite external experts to share their
security issues, challenges, technology
trends, etc.
Use security related IGs to incubate new
ideas.
Encourage early participation in vertical
