The Nuremberg trade fair is once again inviting visitors to the embedded world 2019 from 26 to 28 February 2019 this year.
The British mobile phone provider Vodafone is further expanding its machine network (NB-IoT) for the Internet of Things. In the Lower Rhine region, the expansion of the machine network is already well advanced. The infrastructure in ~25 cities in the […]
For more security in IoT the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has developed a chip that can take over the work of software algorithms in the future, uses 99.75% less energy and does the necessary encryption calculations about 500 times faster.
Driven by innovative technologies in the field of sensors, computing speed and battery life, it is conceivable that our clothing will increasingly change over the next few years. The so-called “Smart clothes” are clothes characterized by traditional protective and representative functions in combination with digital and technical features.
IoT vs. M2M: Is the Internet of Things the same old model of machine-to-machine communication of the 1990s, packed in new clothing?.
With the IoT, the strict separation of the physical and digital world is outdated. This has an impact on possible business models: Typical digital business models can now be transferred to the classic industry – at the same time, completely new concepts are being developed. This article presents concrete building blocks and patterns for IoT business models.
In the Internet of Things, large amounts of data need to be transferred and processed quickly. However, the cloud with its relatively narrow bandwidth is overwhelmed with it – edge computing as data processing on-site is getting increasingly important. Is the end of the cloud getting closer?
In a recent report, the Institute for Critical Infrastructure Technology (ICIT) a US-based think tank warns about future threats we face as a result of increasing numbers of being connected online within the Internet of Things. The report “Rise of The Machines” states, that the recent DDoS attacks carried out by a Botnet of thousands of machines infected with the Mirai-Malware was just the beginning of what we’re going to see in the future. Additionally it calls for stricter regulations of IoT-Devic
One big challenge in the world of IoT will be to ensure devices from a range of different vendors to collaborate smoothly. One solution, and one that has proven the most popular up until now, is to connect each single device with a cloud service, collect the data and let a remote computer decide what to do next. But this is not always a very elegant way of doing things. First of all, you may need to tie in a number of gateways to collect data from the different devices which may all use different protocols. Secondly, by sending everything into the cloud first, you run the risk of higher latency. Thirdly, if the cloud server stops working or a glitch with the internet connection, the whole system may grind to a halt.
