Internet of Things (IOTs) is the next step in the evolution of the internet. It may be defined as a seamlessly connected network of intelligent systems developed by the interplay of software, telecom and electronic hardware without any human intervention. The IoTs will enable more 'things' or 'devices' or 'sensors' to be connected to the internet and will enhance consumer and business experience. IoT can be said to involved three distinct stages:
(A) Sensors which collect data,
(B) Application which collects and analyses this data for further consolidation and,
(C) Transmission of data to the decision-making server.
In India, the IoTs solutions can be used to address the following unique challenges:
Creation of smart cities characterised by intelligent systems including - Smart traffic management systems, smart grids, waste management systems, transport systems .Smart Water - setting up tools to detect the quality of water provide real time information on leakages monitor water level variation in rivers and dams for more proactive disaster management Smart Environment - setting up tools for monitoring CO2 emissions by factories/cars .Smart Waste Management - setting up tool to assist the ‘SWACH BHARAT’ initiative such as systems which inform the municipal workers when trash containers are full.Smart Agriculture - setting up tools including systems for monitoring of soil moisture, earth density and pests and create an online update mechanism for farmers to enable precision farming operations.Smart Safety - setup tools such as wearable device for women, child and old people to ensure safety in public.
