What is IoT?
7. - By 2020, the number of things connected to
the Internet will be about 50 billion
- Cisco expects the economy to reach $14.4
billion by 2025
- Software enabled-devices are easier to
manage
- 40% out of 450 surveyed IT and business
leaders expect that IoT will boost sales and
cut cost within 3 years
- Huge data gathering with accuracy

18. Power Technology
Power Harvesting
solar power, thermal
energy, wind energy,
salinity gradients, and
kinetic energy
Supercapacitors
They typically store 10 to 100 times more
energy per unit volume or mass than
electrolytic capacitors, can accept and deliver
charge much faster than batteries, and
tolerate many more charge and discharge
cycles than rechargeable batteries.

Smart outlets like the
WeMo allow you to
instantly turn on and off
any plugged in device
from across the world or
just your living room.
Save money and
conserve energy over
time by eliminating
standby power,
measure and record the
power usage of any
device, and increase its
operating lifespan
through more efficient
use and scheduling.
24. Stop Guessing
Smart Industry
http://postscapes.com/internet-of-things-examples/
Enguage offers an
electronic system that
notifies authorities when a
fire extinguisher is blocked,
missing from its designated
location or when its
pressure falls below safe
operating levels. Alerts can
be sent directly through an
instant email, phone call or
pager notification to proper
agencies and supervisors.

Products like the cellular
communication enabled
Smart Belly trash use
real-time data collection
and alerts to let
municipal services know
when a bin needs to be
emptied. This
information can
drastically reduce the
number of pick-ups
required, and translates
into fuel and financial
savings for communities
service departments

The Proteus ingestible pill
sensor is powered by
contact with your stomach
fluid and communicates a
signal that determines the
timing of when you took
your meds and the
identity of the pill. This
information is transferred
to a patch worn on the
skin to be logged for you
and your doctor's
reference. Heart rate,
body position and activity
can also be detected.
