The Future of Internet of Things (IoT)

Its been predicted that by the end of 2015 , there will be 25 billion devices connected to the internet

and the number will double by 2020. This makes an average of seven devices for each person

living on the earth. Information will be generated from machine to machine by robots and sensors,

machine to people via wearables, and people to people via social networks. Internet of things

includes natural or man made object that is embedded with sensors assigned an internet address

and that transfer data from sensors and devices to servers located in the cloud wirelessly.

The connected home includes digital door locks connected to the cloud that can be unlocked via

the internet, animal collars that enable owners to track their pets regardless of their whereabouts.

A connected refrigerator will sense the levels of grocery, re-order and get it delivered. A small

device in the bed side pillow will sense the sleep level and activate house lighting, coffee maker,

slow cooker or oven in a timely manner. Developments in the area of personal health are very

interesting. Today sensors monitor level of sugar constantly and administer insulin as required.

Tomorrow a connected toothbrush will send data to a dentist, on frequency, effective cleaning and

health of your teeth. Similarly other wearable and health related monitoring devices will be

connected to a health-care organization database. The organization will analyze a member's

activities and create individual incentives for each member to stay healthy. Businesses are

installing special devices to attract the customers carrying their apps in the smart phones. A

merchant will learn as soon as a consumer enters the store. The

In the future most of the products and services will be

connected to the internet. This connectivity constitutes a

major part of the Internet of Things. To educate our youth, I

would like to offer some of the basic denitions in this eld

The Internet of everything was initially introduced by Jeff

Chambers of Cisco Systems. It's a world-wide system of inter-

connected computers, networks, sensors, actuators, and

variety of devices utilizing internet protocol. This process holds

so much potential to change, how we live, feel and interact.

system will guide the customer towards desired area/products,

pricing and discounts. Connected wearables include Google

Glass, smart gear, Nike Fuel, cap, headset and related devices.

Tomorrow this will include clothing with embedded sensors,

gadgets to monitor the emotions, GPS equipped devices to

navigate and help location sensitive activations. I'll further

elaborate this area in the future issues. The Internet of things will

play an important role in how we live and conduct our business. It is

predicted that over the next 3-5 years, a huge transformation will

happen with the internet of things.

Tech News

The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) is looking to add mesh networking capabilities to the

Bluetooth Smart wireless technology, making it easier for devices to network together as part of the

Internet of Things (IoT).

Smartphones have swapped nearly every believable device, but computer scientists are teaching

them some new tricks. The scientists are familiarizing accelerometers, GPS chips, gyroscopes and

other sensors to make phones that can read a user's mood, eliminate passwords, protect nancial

transactions and more.

A new study nds that users on OKCupid and mobile-based Tinder aren't able to determine social

norms or effective match-making techniques on the services, so they use Reddit to learn tips about

online dating. Once there, they also nd ways that allow them to cheat the system to interact with

more potential dates.

The evolution of Parkinson's is monitored in real time through a new portable system, with results sent

to the doctor to improve the prescription of medication, developers report.

A brief history of Android:The Android platform is the product of the Open Handset Alliance, a group of organizations collaborating to build a better mobile

phone. The group, led by Google, includes mobile operators, device handset manufacturers, component manufacturers, software solution and platform

providers, and marketing companies. From a software development standpoint, Android sits smack in the middle of the open source world. The rst Android-

capable handset on the market was the G1 device manufactured by HTC and provisioned on T-Mobile. The device became available after almost a year of

speculation, where the only software development tools available were some incrementally improving SDK releases. As the G1 release date neared, the

Android team released SDK V1.0 and applications began surfacing for the new platform.To spur innovation, Google sponsored two rounds of "Android

Developer Challenges," where millions of dollars were given to top contest submissions. A few months after the G1, the Android Market was released, allowing

users to browse and download applications directly to their phones. Over about 18 months, a new mobile platform entered the public arena.Google is allowing

every Tom, Dick, and Harry to build Applications for Android by making it open source. All you need is to Setup your environment and have an introduction to

following languages.

Java - primary android development language

C++ - NDK for libraries, not apps

Python, bash, et. al. - Via the Scripting Environment

Google Fiber

What is it? Google Fiber is gigabit (or 1,000 megabits per second) Internet, supplied by ber-optic cables rather than the

century-old copper ones currently providing Internet at speeds of about 9.8 megabits per second.

Where is it? Kansas City, Mo., and Kansas City, Kan. were the rst markets selected for Google Fiber implementation in

2010, chosen from nearly 1,100 community and 200,000 individual applicants. Since then, Google has begun work on

launching networks in Provo, Utah and Austin, Texas.

How is it set up? Google Fiber is powered by a hub-and-spoke cable system, according to information provided by the

company. A ber ring surrounds the city where the network is located. From that ring, bers branch inward and connect to ber

huts, where each strand passes through the devices that receive and transmit signals between your computer and the

Internet. From there, bers connect to telecom cabinets, which divide bers into small bundles that travel outward to clusters

of homes. At that point, cables pass through neighborhoods via telephone poles or underground and, ultimately, a single

strand connects to an individual home for Internet and television connections.

What happens if Nashville is selected? Google builds the primary infrastructure for cities selected, and then asks

"berhoods" -- groups of homes served by the same cabinet -- to reach a certain interest goal for their network to be "lit up."

Once that signup goal is reached, berhoods are activated and technicians visit users' homes to nalize Internet and

television connections. Google has three different plans available for customers, including combined television and Internet,

and two different Internet options.

How will Google Fiber change my service? Google cites a few benets from ber service, such as improved ability to share

bandwidth across multiple devices, less buffering when streaming HD video and the ability to download a digital movie in less

than two minutes.

What will it cost? In Kansas City, an Internet-only package costs $70 a month. A TV and Internet package goes for $120 per

month. Google also offers a free Internet package at "today's basic speeds" for customers willing to pay a one-time construction fee of $300.

What about businesses? Google Fiber as currently designed is primarily for individuals and homes, according to the company, but a small-business network

is being developed.

Is Google the only company offering this? No. In fact, shortly after Google announced Austin as the next site for Google Fiber, AT&T announced its own

plans to bring a similar high-speed network to the city, and Time Warner is undertaking a similar effort.

How does the US stack up in terms of gigabit Internet? Here's a by-the-numbers breakdown from Google of ber Internet as at stands today:

7.7 percent of home Internet connections in the US are ber

68 percent of Japanese connections are ber

62 percent of Korean connections are ber

9.8 Megabits per second, the average connection speed in the US, ranks No. 9 in the world

66 percent of Americans have connections slower than 10 megabits per second

Nearly 150 ber-to-the home projects and dozens of gigabit Internet projects are currently underway

Android Application Development

Environment: There are a lot of Environment tools free of cost and paid which have made a

developers life easy by assisting him in Developing Efcient and user-friendly applications.

One of the most commonly used Tool is Google's Android Studio and SDK Tools which are

dependent on each other and need to be installed simultaneously. Google has made it even

easier to set up environment by packing all the tools in to a single package called ADT Bundle. Just download the pack and run the tool.

Developing: After installation of environment comes the monster called developing. What you need here is your programming skills along with the knowledge of

above mentioned Languages especially JAVA. There are a lot of books that can be consulted for learning Android Development like Android Programming: The

Big Nerd Ranch Guide. Besides that you can also join online communities or forums like Stackoverow where you can always get answered to any question in

no time and can also answer others questions. Developed your Application? What Next? After you have developed your own application you can throw it to

the world by buying an account on Google Play. After paying for an account you will get a console where you can upload and publish you application. After

Publishing others will see your app on google play and can download it.

I think right now it's a battle for the mindshare of developers and for the mindshare of customers, and right now iPhone and Android are winning that battle.
