INTERNET OF THINGS - IOT

INTERNET OF THINGS
"In the coming years, planet earth will don an electronic skin....
It will use the Internet as a scaffold to support and transmit its
sensations."
- Neil Gross 1999
INTERNET OF THINGS
This skin is already being stitched together. It consists of millions of
embedded electronic measuring devices: thermostats, pressure gauges,
pollution detectors, cameras, microphones, glucose sensors, EKGs,
electroencephalographs
These will probe and monitor cities and endangered species, the
atmosphere, our ships, highways and fleets of trucks, our conversations,
our bodieseven our dreams. -
