Internet of things or IOT is now deemed to be the next big thing of the upcoming years. The idea of IOT is overwhelming the industry and can be said as the next industrial revolution. 5 | Techiexpert.com

7. What is IOT at its simplest? To explain simply, Internet of things or IOT is the digital ecosystem. To make thing more simple IOT is nothing else but smart devices. It is any device that has ability to collect or transfer data without manual help. Smartphone can be taken as an example of an IOT device. However the IOT is not limited to just smart phones. From cars to home appliances like refrigerator and air conditioners to business devices, use of IOT is becoming more and more popular 6 | Techiexpert.com

8. Origin of IOT Industry Let’s take a look at the history of the IOT industry. The concept is said to be 35 years old when a coke machine at Carniegie Meltion University became the first internet connected appliance. The future model of the IOT was proposed in 2004. Within the last 2 years, world has seen a boom in the IOT industry. Current Size of IOT Industry and Future From last 2 year, world have observed a boom in the IOT industry. Use of IOT is growing in the every industry around the world. A misconception about the IOT is that it is mostly used in technological sector. The facts however tell a different story. The IOT is now used in different industrial sector all around the world. From NPO, NGO to a profit making organization, Use of IOT is growing all around the world. Two years ago it was said that by 2020 the size of IOT industry will exceed to 30.7Billion IOT devices. 7 | Techiexpert.com

9. As of 2016, there are approximately 20.35 Billion IOT devices. In 2015 the total of market size of IOT was up to $900 Million which is said to be increased to $3.7 Billion. More growth in IOT industry is expected in the future. There are many threats for the IOT developers and we can overcome these threats by providing security to the IOT developers. The data which is generated by the sensors or by the smart objects can be collected, analysed and processed to monitor and control the environment physically in a pervasive manner. 8 | Techiexpert.com

10. Protecting the personal information is the primary key for the consumers in the private sector. Several aspects can be covered when we use IOT in the private sector. In today’s world the IOT plays a vital role towards the digital global transformation. Security for the IOT developers: The IOT is evolving constantly to meet the customer needs and also the needs of every individual. It is really very challenging to find develop a framework for the security using the technology. The security can be developed once we take lessons from the experiences of the past. It is very hard to provide the rules for security in a quick manner as they resemble working to know about a creature biologically. There are many problems that are arising from the IOT in the areas of security. So many giants in tech and some start-ups are developing solution for those security problems. There are many vulnerabilities in the security for IOT devices and some IOT devices are attacked due to vulnerability. Even though there are a plenty of opportunities to offer growth there is no security for the IOT. During the 90’s internet did not deal with different types of the hardware. 9 | Techiexpert.com

11. By using Exotic material and different production techniques the manufacturers can reduce the bulk. They also require expensive batteries which are bigger and heavier as they more power. Starting from the individual developers to tech giants everyone needs to play a crucial in order to make the internet secure. The basic points which you need to consider when you need to improve the security of IOT are as follows: The security needs to be emphasized from first day. Both the private and personal information of the customers need to be protected. Have a look on the updates which can be used as the proofs for the future and also on the life cycle. Make sure that the device is authenticated properly and having control when it is accessed. Always have a quick eye to know about your enemy. It is also the responsibility of the developers to get the security breaches prepared. So, if you follow the above instructions for the IOT then you can make your IOT secure. The performance of your IOT can also improve if it has proper security. 10 | Techiexpert.com

12. Threats of IOT: The IOT has threats but we are not sure that every threat can be solved with the help of security. We need to analyse the threat at first and then try to solve the threat in a proper procedure. In case if you have a threat in your IOT then you need to understand how that threat is affecting your IOT. If there is a big threat in your IOT then you need to split that into small parts and solve in a step by step manner. You can develop different strategies to solve your threat and implement the best one as required. Smart devices are considered to be vulnerable to many individuals. Connected cars can also be hacked so many people are worried about problem. 11 | Techiexpert.com

13. Many cyber security incidents that took place recently should be considered as the teaching lessons for the professionals in security. The DNC (democratic national committee) hacking has leaked many emails and also published them online which can be said a teachable lesson. If you increase the check on staffers and the volunteers on their background then the security can be improved. IOT is not a lost cause together as whole. As the technology is emerging from day to day the developers also need to notice the bugs present in the products and overcome those bugs by providing security. You need to postpone your purchases if IOT is not working and security services are not evolved. There is a chance for a threat to occur if there are insecure protocols as the creation of all the devices is not equal. So you need to disable the insecure protocols in your IOT. If you never change your password and keep your IOT device enabled then that can also be a threat for your IOT. We can ensure that security will be provided by the developers in the future. 12 | Techiexpert.com

14. The Internet of things is evolving rapidly in different sectors. Now we are going to discuss about IOT in different sectors. 1.HealthCare: There is a major change in healthcare sector with the Internet of things. To maintain the records of the patient information in earlier days only pen and paper are used. Now-a-days there are many healthcare applications which will allow the patients to schedule their appointments without calling to the doctor’s office or waiting near the reception. The doctors can carry information with wherever they go through the applications in their smartphones. The connectivity is increasing day to day and there is no chance to slow down. The patients can take an active role for their own health and well-being through the portal technology. The portal technology will allow users to login to the website of the healthcare provider. 13 | Techiexpert.com

15. The website will allow the patients to access their medical records, download the forms and prepare for the appointments. The home monitoring systems will allow the patients and doctors to keep the track record of health for an individual. Using this system you can avoid the costly and unnecessary trips to sit with the physician when the doctor is not in the office. For both the patient and doctor fronts the IOT is starting slowly to weave into the healthcare. To allow the patients track their health the ultrasounds, electrocardiograms, thermometers, glucose monitors and many more are starting to get connected. 14 | Techiexpert.com

16. These technologies will be required in crucial situations when the patient has the follow-up appointments with the doctors. Smart beds have been implemented in many hospitals where the presence of the patient can be sensed and adjust itself automatically. It will adjust to the exact angle and pressure which provides proper support to the patient without the help of nurse. Patient care at home can be transformed with the help of IOT. Some patients do not take appropriate doses and proper medication at the correct time. If you have smart medication dispensers in your home they will upload the information automatically to the cloud. When the patients don’t take the medicine the doctors will get an alert through these smart medical dispensers. Many reputed companies are leading the pack about the IOT and the healthcare. A report has been released by the grand view research recently on the healthcare sector. It noticed that the industry is dominated by a handful of key players. 15 | Techiexpert.com

17. Many companies are trying to gain a major part by developing specific products for the medical applications and increasing the research collaboratively. 2.Market Places: The Evolution of IOT in market places plays a key role for the growth of opportunities. Most of the industries recognize that the telecommunication providers and different enterprises of the next decade can avail opportunities through IOT. Home automation and control is the first phase related to IOT. For example by using mobile you can control a home appliance. A normal device like mobile phone is required during this phase and there is no need of special device. Industry automation is the next phase through which the IOT is expended. This phase also includes the applications which can monitor the health and video surveillance. The machine type of communication is defined as a phase in which the data is collected by the sensors. The data is transformed over the network through the remote server and then it is processed. 16 | Techiexpert.com

18. Internet of everything is the current phase of IOT where everything is being connected to everything. Special networks and devices are required in order to support that connectivity. The indoor coverage needs to be strong as many of the devices will be placed in the indoor. There should be a large capacity in the network as there may be billions of devices. There is no requirement of high data for the internet devices but they need a long battery life. In the coming future to expect a trillion dollar market an aggressive growth is set by the IOT. By the year 2025 the IOT is estimating to connect nearly 30 billion devices. The significant part of the IOT communications is fixed and short range of networks. As a choice of technology the cellular technology is also forecasted to grow for applications of IOT. To cover the market of health, retail, transportation and other sectors the billion connected devices are required. There is a rapid growth in the adoption of IOT for different industries.

Tremendous devices with volumes need to be deployed. The physical and financial assets need to be utilized for optimizing the adoption of the IOT through business perspective. 3.Consumer Electronics: The consumer electronics are evolving rapidly with differentiated and unique products under immense pressure. A successful product attracts the consumer market quickly than the copycat product which is launched by the competitors. If the products are enhanced and the emerging technologies are supported by the manufacturers then they can stay ahead from the competition. 18 | Techiexpert.com

20. There are some reasons why the life cycle of consumer products has a dramatic reduction. It is because many of the manufacturers are putting their total eggs in the same basket. They are trying to produce a complete line of the products in different categories. Many of the manufacturers are often very anxious that they must be the first in the world to make a new product, technology or service. They should not expose their hot products in the early stage and they need to be careful. The makers should be ready to bring the product quickly to the market once the product is revealed to the media or public. 19 | Techiexpert.com

21. If the product is not released then other manufacturers will develop a similar product to beat you in the market. You need to get your dealers and salespeople early on board as the timing is critical. You can launch your new product successfully if you have proper marketing material. An advertising agency is required to promote your product as there is a high competition in the market. Some staff members in the electronic industry are well versed with the emerging trends. The way we live, work and play is completely changed completely due to the new technologies. In the human history many new technologies are emerging.

There was an exhibition at Dome in Brighton. The robot is programmed in order to answer the voice commands in a sequence. 21 | Techiexpert.com

23. It also includes firing a gun. The creator had apparently thought that there would be no mistake in teaching a prototype robot how to shoot with a gun. The live audience are explained about how to demonstrate this feature. It is still an under development issue about using the robots as assistants. A bright mechanical engineer named Emil Mathias has first created and used a fully automated functional house. He is a workman who handed his tools in a great way. To perform almost every task of the day with a simple push button, a unique abode was created by Mathias. Even there are a few impracticalities; the end product was very impressive. The house is no for sale and also not sponsored by any company. The IOT is the main force for the evolution of the smart homes. You cannot imagine how technology integrates into the common items and automated with IOT which is a technological trend. In future the devices will work in harmony and also communicate with each other. 22 | Techiexpert.com
