Internet of Things: The time has come

Internet of Things: The time has come

Today is truly the age of the Internet. Today, the Internet has made an invaluable contribution to staying connected.

Toys like Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, Skype, Line, V-Chat have become an important part of our daily lives. People find satisfaction and happiness in being connected to each other while doing any daily routine of eating-drinking-sleeping-waking up. As many as five billion "smart" connected devices (devices) are in practical use in the world today, and experts and analysts predict that this figure will reach fifty billion by the year 2020. The term "IoT" is not new to those who follow today's technology. What is this IoT? IoT stands for 'Internet of Things'! Thing is a thing, an object that does not have life. One of the things we can do by connecting anything to the internet is called 'Internet of Things'! The Onida company's' SMS. Gone, A.C. Remember the on-line ad? Just before you reach home, turn on the AC from your mobile phone. Send a message to turn on and turn on the A.C. before you get home. Once turned on. Similarly, after a car is parked, the driver notices that the car's lights are still on, or when he leaves the house to find out that the TV is on. I forgot to close - how good would it be to report in such a timely manner? Although such reporting is a small part of IoT, in a broader sense IoT is much more than that. The real magic is that the IoT (in the future) can detect potential situations in the current situation and suggest preventive measures by knowing any upcoming faults. So let's enjoy today's innovations and IoT technology.

Car engine malfunction forecast: Leading car maker Rolls Royce, in partnership with seven different generations, plans to build a robot that is only 1.5 cm long. (I.e. about half an inch) and will fit inside the car engine. If needed, the robot will take photos of the engine's internal parts and send them remotely (remotely) to the company's experts. This way the engine experts will quickly catch any kind of defect or fault. This system allows for timely maintenance and repair of the engine, resulting in customer (i.e. us) safety and excellent customer service. Mercedes-Benz and Mahindra's Reva have been using IoT for a long time. First of all the car had the facility to listen to the radio or CD. Then due to the desire of man, it has GPS. (I.e. a device used to navigate and show the way to every corner of the world) and a Bluetooth connection was connected.

Later, he had the facility to download songs or music through Wi-Fi in his car which is called 'Things on the Internet'. The scene today is something different. Today "ADAS" means automatic driver assistant system so you can drive your own car without a driver! If there is an accident in a driverless car, the car itself will take necessary steps to prevent the accident. In addition, if there is traffic or congestion on your travel route, your car is equipped with sensors that can detect and redirect such congestion from a distance. If you are about to sit in the driver's seat, get in the car as soon as your smart phone is synchronized with your car. Your seat and car mirrors are arranged according to your body (size). What is the wonder of IoT?

Energy Management: IoT has also played an important role in enhancing the energy efficiency of a building or society and promoting it as a 'smart building'. A company called Nest Lab has launched the 'Smart Thermostat', a Wi-Fi-enabled, sensor-powered, programmable and self-adapting device. This device can adjust the temperature of the house according to the time of day and night, according to the surrounding weather and the activity of the people in the house. Being connected to Wi-Fi allows the city to adjust the temperature of the house on its own according to the forecast made by the Meteorological Department. Apart from this, you can also program the electricity meter in the house with Wi-Fi or take meter reading from a distance. Similarly, the failure of any component can be detected in advance by using IoT on a large scale in solar and wind power plants.

Consumer electronics and user interface: Suppose every appliance in your home such as fridge, TV, dishwasher or washing machine is connected to the Internet day and night. The milk or vegetable in the fridge is on the verge of running out. At the same time your fridge warns you and maybe you don't check it or forget if the fridge itself orders the missing item from 'Amul' or 'Big-Bazaar' website? Secondly, suppose you have 8 to 10 debit and credit cards and you do not always have each card with you. Then keep the same electronic card with Bluetooth in which you scan and keep all your cards. Keep the passcode of each card in the card-application of your smartphone. Whenever you go out and use the card, select the card in your phone and connect it to the electronic card via Bluetooth. As soon as this connection is made, the electronic card will be converted into your real debit or credit card, which you can swipe just like a real card. As soon as the Bluetooth connection is broken, the card becomes a simple electronic card again.

Biology and medical sciences: For the last many years, using cardiograms, devices with large strings (or wires) have been attached to the chest, wrists and legs to measure people's heartbeat and bowel movements. What if the same thing happens with a clip that fits in the finger of a small hand? And measure your own cardiogram by inserting the clip yourself while sitting at home. If required, the result should be sent to the doctor by SMS. Send to their smart phone application via Wi-Fi. A company called Azoi based in Ahmedabad has recently released a small gadget that looks like a mobile phone called 'Vello'. The vine is a powerful health monitor. Hidden sensors can measure body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels in the blood, respiration, stress levels in the heart, and cardiograms. There is a saying in English that Prevention is better than cure. With this in mind, the use of IoT in the medical field has also increased. BCI (Brain Computer Interface) has also been a topic of discussion in biology for some time. You can control your brain with a machine and control any device or device with your thoughts. A special module is used to capture and interpret signals coming from our nerves. Such a discovery shows a new way of disabling a patient and can put their disability aside.

What fun !! Living in such an information world is unique and wonderful. None of these examples will come into existence after 2-3 years. These things have never existed anywhere in the world! By the year 2020, there may be things connected to the Internet that are not respected today. But such a revolution and progress will not happen overnight. There are also some challenges with IoT. The most important challenge is - safety or security! Security is a big step for any kind of transaction or communication over the air (such as Wi-Fi). Efficiency and safety both complement each other but there needs to be coordination and balance between the two. As the use of the Internet in everyday devices increases, it will become a little harder to preserve people's personal information or things. At the same time, if everyone uses the internet, the amount of information (data) will increase a lot, which is also a challenge to save. Apart from that it is also a big responsibility to make consumers aware and educated about safety features. No one type of connectivity can win in this bet of IoT and if it wins, it may not even work. Bluetooth, B.L.E. (Bluetooth Low-Energy), Wi-Fi, Radio Frequency Device Everyone's way of working and description is different, it is a big test in connecting everyone together, in exchanging the same information. Our phone's battery lasts for a day today, but as internet usage increases, so will the power of smartphones and gadgets. For this, more and proper use of energy is essential. Another important point is that IoT is a constantly changing and evolving technology. New tools are being added every day. At the same time, new challenges are added, so the company that puts its tool in the market with the future in mind will probably benefit in the long run.

And this is just a trailer, an overview! Aage aage dekhiye hota hai kya. The time to truly live is about to come!
