The Internet of Things

• Definition
• Have you ever heard of a talking fridge? OR A
  bed that wakes you up to go and bath? A Vehicle
  that tells you the best route to use to avoid
  traffic, low pressure in tyres, over-speeding etc
• Do you know that you can control Electricity and
  Water usage from your House remotely ?
• Do you know you can monitor the Heart Condition,
  BP and Sugar levels of your old Mum in the
  Village remotely?
• One of the promises of the Internet of Things
  (IoT) is that everything should talk to
  everything else. These talkative things include
  sensors, consumer appliances, home automation
  systems, and even connected vehicles.

• According to Gartner, the Internet of things is
  the "network of physical objects that contain
  embedded technology to communicate and sense or
  interact with their internal states or the
  external environment.
• The IERC, defines Internet of Things as a
  dynamic global network infrastructure with
  self-configuring capabilities based on standard
  and inter-operable communication protocols where
  physical and virtual things have identities,
  physical attributes, and virtual personalities
  and use intelligent interfaces, and are
  seamlessly integrated into the information
  network.

• A THING, is an object of the physical world
• (physical things) or of the information world
  (virtual things), which is capable of being
  identified and integrated into communication
  networks.
• A THING, in the Internet of Things, can be a
  person with a heart monitor implant, a farm
  animal with a BIOCHIP TRANSPONDER, an automobile
  that has built-in SENSORS to alert the driver
  when tire pressure is low -- or any other natural
  or man-made object that can be assigned an IP
  ADDRESS and provided with the ability to transfer
  data over a network.

10

• DEVICE a piece of equipment with the mandatory
  capabilities of communication and the optional
  capabilities of sensing, actuation, data capture,
  data storage and data processing. Usually the
  Device provides the intelligence needed to work
  meaningfully with the data provided by the
  attached Sensor. Device transforms the data from
  simple bits and bytes to useful information (the
  combination of data plus context equals
  Information). E.g. Sensors Actuators

11
SENSOR An electronic device that senses a
physical condition or chemical compound and
delivers an electronic signal proportional to the
observed characteristic. Sensors detect or
measure a physical property and convert it into
some kind of electronic representation. Sensors
may be Passive or Active. Sensors are
inexpensive, can be integrated into different
objects, are power efficient, and has wireless
connectivity. Sensors of all kinds are needed
physical, chemical and biochemical.
Actuator A device that triggers a physical
action following stimulation by an input signal

The Internet of Things
IoT in Agriculture

• Systems are now able to monitor environmental
  parameters such as ambient temperature and
  humidity.
• Systems have also been developed with sensor
  systems that access other parameters related to
  agriculture such as precipitation, wind or leaf
  wetness.
• This automation can save upto 80 of the water
  used for irrigation

Some of these nodes get data from the
environmental sensors to be able to create the
statistical prediction models Other nodes control
the irrigation system and air conditioning system
in the wine cellar. Traceability of the grape is
controlled by other nodes using RFID
technology. Powered by a lithium battery that is
recharged by a solar panel, making the nodes
autonomous.
21
The Internet of Things
IoT in Agriculture
1) Productivity - Today, its more critical than
ever to maximize yields from every acre of land
dedicated to food production. Wireless,
cloud-connected systems aid in this crop yield
maximization, automating everyday agriculture
operations and providing real-time monitoring and
data analysis for smart decision making,
day-to-day and season-to-season. 2) Pest Control
- Wireless sensor networks like that of Semios
monitor pest counts, and when it detects that the
pest population is too high, its metered
pheromone delivery system automatically activates
and disrupts the mating patterns of pests. This
minimizes, and in some cases completely replaces,
pesticide use. 3) Conservation - With embedded
wireless devices and soil monitoring systems like
that of Smart Watering Systems and Observant,
farmers can measure moisture, detect leaks and
more efficiently manage energy usage, all in
real-time.
