What is the Internet of Things for?
We are at the beginning of the fourth industrial revolution, and the Internet of Things plays a role in it very similar to that of the steam engine in the first industrial revolution, at the end of the 18th century.
Another point on which progress is being made is in the definition of specific standards for IoT. “When the first connected objects started to emerge, they used existing connectivity standards. Recently, specific solutions have begun to be launched – low-power technologies – that optimize battery use in exchange for reduced data transmission,” García points out.
For Cendón, “we will see the convergence of the IoT when we can start talking about 5G, which should bring communication profiles that enable applications in the IoT world. In the meantime, existing and new non-standard technologies will try to gain IoT market share”.
But in addition, says Cendón, “the government should begin to understand that IoT has its own entity and that there are needs for control or regulation in key issues such as cybersecurity or the use of unlicensed spectrum”. He is particularly critical of current policies: “We lack an IoT strategy as a country. Germany, France or the UK believe the story and are betting on it”.
Internet of Things advantages and disadvantages
The Internet is a telecommunications network that uses telephone lines, cables, satellites and wireless connections to connect computers and other devices to the World Wide Web. All modern computers can connect to the Internet, as can many cell phones and some televisions, video game consoles and other devices.
The Internet is not synonymous with the World Wide Web. The Internet is a massive network of networks, a network infrastructure. It connects millions of computers globally, forming a network in which any computer can communicate with any other computer as long as both are connected to the Internet. The World Wide Web, or simply the Web, is a way of accessing information over the Internet. It is a model of information exchange that is built on top of the Internet.
Internet de las cosas ejemplos
El Internet de las cosas (IoT) describe objetos físicos (o grupos de tales objetos) que llevan incorporados sensores, capacidad de procesamiento, software y otras tecnologías que se conectan e intercambian datos con otros dispositivos y sistemas a través de Internet u otras redes de comunicación[1][2][3][4] El Internet de las cosas se ha considerado un término erróneo porque los dispositivos no necesitan estar conectados a la Internet pública, sólo necesitan estar conectados a una red y ser direccionables individualmente[5][6].
Hay una serie de preocupaciones sobre los riesgos en el crecimiento de las tecnologías y productos de la IO, especialmente en las áreas de privacidad y seguridad, y en consecuencia, la industria y los movimientos gubernamentales para abordar estas preocupaciones han comenzado, incluyendo el desarrollo de normas internacionales y locales, directrices y marcos regulatorios[8].
El concepto principal de una red de dispositivos inteligentes se discutió ya en 1982, con una máquina expendedora de Coca-Cola modificada en la Universidad de Carnegie Mellon que se convirtió en el primer aparato conectado a ARPANET,[9] capaz de informar de su inventario y de si las bebidas recién cargadas estaban frías o no[10] El documento de Mark Weiser de 1991 sobre la computación ubicua, “El ordenador del siglo XXI”, así como lugares académicos como UbiComp y PerCom produjeron la visión contemporánea de la IOT. [En 1994, Reza Raji describió el concepto en IEEE Spectrum como “[mover] pequeños paquetes de datos a un gran conjunto de nodos, para integrar y automatizar todo, desde los electrodomésticos hasta fábricas enteras”[13] Entre 1993 y 1997, varias empresas propusieron soluciones como Microsoft’s at Work o Novell’s NEST. El campo cobró impulso cuando Bill Joy imaginó la comunicación de dispositivo a dispositivo como parte de su marco “Seis Webs”, presentado en el Foro Económico Mundial de Davos en 1999[14].

Over the next decade, with the implementation of new Internet-enabled applications, the global economy will change considerably. Some of these applications are likely to be game-changing, innovative and will also have a major economic impact. This will affect many industries and sectors, as already seen in consumer sectors such as hotels (Airbnb) and cabs (Uber).
Due to the decreasing cost of connectivity, sensors and processing devices, IIoT adoption has grown tremendously. Sensor data can be captured and pre-processed near machines using an intelligent distributed device, such as a CompactRIO or a PXI automated test system. The distributed device can send the data in real time to the virtual world (IT cloud platform) where it can be stored, monitored, analyzed or used to trigger an action.
Provide a platform. You must create and deploy your own application in the cloud, leveraging the runtime and services provided by the vendor. Examples: IBM Bluemix, Microsoft Azure, AWS IoT.
