 What is IoT
• A system which allows devices to
communicate directly with each other without
human intervention
• Objective :
– Improve the efficiency
– Reduce the expense
– Increase the revenue
 Basics of IoT
• Identify devices
• Assign unique identifier for the device to
communicate through internet
– It is called IP address
• Gather data using sensor
• Process data
• Make useful decision
 Preview to IoT
• M2M – Machine to Machine Communication
• Used in industry
