The Internet of Things (IoT) is the interconnected network of sensors, machines, and devices via wireless transmission. The challenge with this concept is that it requires an abstract definition of a concrete process. Connecting devices together to enhance their potential and to increase proficiency is the theory behind the IoT. The data created, complied and used by sensors, machines and devices is the application of IoT. Pye’s article takes these concepts and further defines the impact on industrial and scientific applications.

Firstly, There might be an automated health care system been develop by internet of things. Internet Of Things will be used in living things such as plants, animals, and humans not only to collect data, but also to track sicknesses, viruses, and monitor behavioral patterns. For example, chips could be positioned on individuals such as hospital patients in order to monitor vital signs and help to show what responsive action or way should be taken, while also alerting doctors and physicians of critical conditions before it’s too late to fixed

Internet of Things, abbreviated IoT, is the interconnection of devices through internet networks. It has skyrocketed in recent years and has no intentions on slowing down. It connects things like cell phones, cars, computers, monitors, coffee machines, and other devices that contain, sensors, internet connection, and software. It connects devices and machines that one might not even notice or know about. Internet of things is changing the world we live in. It has allowed for reduced waste, increased efficiencies, advancements, enhancements, and so much more in our everyday lives, including our health.

Internet of things (IOT) can be defined as a computing concept where every-day physical objects are connected to the Internet and are able to identify themselves to other devices. It is an integrated relationship between generic objects and the virtual world in which both can communicate and exchange data and information. It keeps the objects interconnected, which can be identified by some assigned codes, names, locations, shapes or addresses. Internet of things describes a world where just about anything can be connected or communicated in an intelligent fashion. Or we can say that with IOT, the physical world is changing into a big

Internet of things (IoT) is becoming a hot topic in recent years. Its application is very wide which can be applied to the military, industry, agriculture, power grid and networks, transportation, logistics, energy saving, environmental

The main idea behind the working of the Internet of Things revolves around increased machine-to-machine communication or M2M communication as it is called nowadays. It’s built on cloud computing and networks of sensors that can collect data and store it. The Internet of things offers mobile, virtual, and instantaneous connection. It is all about installing sensors (RFID, Bluetooth, GPS etc.) and connecting them to the internet through the use of specific protocols for data transfer and communications, in order to achieve intelligent recognition, location, tracking, monitoring and management (Zhang, Kim, & Mohammed, 2015). Thus, the Internet of things really comes together with the connection of sensors and machines. The real value that the Internet of Things creates is at the intersection of collecting data and using it for future use (Burrus, 2012).

First and foremost, it’s important to remember IoT is not new. In fact, one could argue industrial IoT was invented by stalwarts like Johnson Controls, Honeywell, Itron, General Electric, and Schneider Electric last century through their sensors, meters, and other devices used to monitor and manage HVAC, SCADA, and other energy assets. What’s changed are improvements in interest, infrastructure, and information. While there is considerable hyperbole around IoT, the demand on traditional

Abstract-Wireless sensor networks have many advantages over traditional wired sensing technology, due to their embedded construction. This technology has been used in agricultural scenario because of the need for enhancing precision, quality and quantity in farming. In this paper, we developed a prototype for the system which utilized a real time wireless sensor network to communicate wirelessly to a pest management system that measures the various parameters like air temperature, air humidity and leaf wetness duration in an Apple and Picrorhiza Kurroa (Kutki) farm for the prediction of disease, apple scab in apple and powdery mildew in Kutki and for this purpose an application software has been developed to derive a relation among these parameters and Infection Index to find out the optimum condition for best growth of crop. The information is linked to server to alert farmers regarding the environmental changes and infection index so that the necessary precaution may be taken before disease occurs. The major goal is to reduce several unnecessary sprays and apply only when the crop has highest risk of a particular disease. The system will be installed in Mashobra, Shimla for apple and IHBT, Palampur for Kutki.

An Internet of Things (IoT) system connects the physical world into Internet via radio frequency identification (RFID) tags, sensors, and mobile devices. IoT is an intelligent collaboration of tiny sensors and devices giving new challenges to the end to end communication of things.

The evolution of internet over the past decades in tremendous that, information sharing between individuals has been increasing. Till now machine to machine communication has also been possible because of the trends and developments that have been in this field such IPV6 etc. Internet of things refers to the connectivity of devices between each other using IP addresses. A simple machine to machine connectivity can be obtained using internet and IP address of the device.(Skiba, 2013) These devices operate in the same domain and encompasses a variety of protocol to ensure better connectivity. This interconnectivity of devices have been implemented in most of the fields such as built in sensors in automobiles which sends alert or warning to the driver if there is any fault in the car or any man-made object that can send or receive alerts via internet using the IP address assigned to it. Formally, with this new information sharing invent a machine does not need a human aid to send or receive information between.
