" BASIC CONCEPTS OF INTERNET OF THINGS (IoT)"

Internet of Things (IoT) is a concept where physical objects or devices around us are
connected and can communicate through the internet network. The main goal of IoT is to
allow various devices to interact with each other and exchange data automatically. For
example, household devices, vehicles, sensors, and more can be connected to improve
efficiency, safety, and convenience.

Basic IoT Concepts:

1. Connected Devices: Any kind of physical device or object, from household devices to
industrial sensors, that can connect to the internet.

2. Wireless Communication: IoT leverages wireless technology to allow devices to

communicate without having to be physically connected.

3. Sensors and Data Collection: IoT devices are equipped with sensors to collect data from
the surrounding environment. This data can include information about temperature,
humidity, location, and more.

4. Data Processing in the Cloud: Data collected by IoT devices is often processed in the cloud
for further analysis. This allows for smarter decision making and quick responses.

5. Application Interface: Users can monitor and control IoT devices through the
corresponding application or user interface.

6. Security: Data protection and privacy are critical in an IoT environment. Security must be
integrated from the start, from the device to the backend of the system.
