What Is IoT?
The internet of things (IoT) is a concept
that involves the usage of physical yet
internet-connected objects that
interact across wireless networks.
All IoT devices work on the same principle:
they gather and communicate data
from a device or sensor, process it in a
server or processing unit, and then
display the results on a user interface.
Internet of things makes daily life easier by allowing devices to work together so that the user has more control over the technology in their facility
What does IoT do?
Internet of things makes daily life easier by allowing devices to

Who uses IoT?
Most if not all the technologies that
fall under the internet of things are
used by the general public this
includes businesses, homeowners or
citizens and government facilities.
The research and development history of IoT, as
well as its current stage of development?
The first Advancement in the development of the Internet of Things was the ARPANET
the Advance Research Project Agency Network in 1969.ARPANET was the earliest
packet switching network to use TCP/IP. It was created by the US Department of
Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and was the main network of a
series of networks that eventually became the worldwide Internet.
The Second Advancement in the development of the Internet Of Things was the
proposal of the framework of the worldwide web by Tim Berners Lee in 1989.In 1990, he
developed the foundations for the Web: HTTP, HTML, the WorldWideWeb browser, a
server, and the first website in order to manage documentation. The browser was
released outside CERN to other research institutions starting in January 1991, and then
to the general public in August 1991. The Web was a success at CERN and began to
spread to other scientific and academic institutions.

The Third Advancement in the development of the Internet Of Things was Web 2.0.
Darcy DiNucci, an information architecture consultant, invented the phrase "Web
2.0" in her January 1999 paper "Fragmented Future."Web 2.0 is thought to be useful
since it makes it simple for people to publish their work, interact with others, and
share and trade information. Wikis and blogs are considered Web 2.0. The focus of
Web 2.0 is on user-generated and interactive content. Internet users could only
read content on web pages prior to Web 2.0. Users can interact with the site and
upload content using Web 2.0. The previous version, Web 1.0, merely allowed the
website creator to write information.
The Forth Advancement in the development of the Internet Of Things was social
media. Social media began as a way for friends and family to engage, but it was
eventually embraced by companies looking to take advantage of a popular new
communication channel to reach out to customers. The capacity to connect and
exchange information with anybody on the planet, or with many people at once, is
the power of social media.

The Fifth Advancement in the development of the
Internet Of Things was Machine to Machine. Machineto-machine, or M2M, is a general term that refers to
any technology that allows networked devices to share
information and conduct activities without the need
for human intervention. Artificial intelligence (AI) and
machine learning (ML) enhance system
communication and allow them to make independent
decisions.M2M technology was originally used in
manufacturing and industrial settings, whereas other
technologies like SCADA and remote monitoring
assisted in remotely managing and controlling data
from equipment. M2M has subsequently found use in
various industries such as healthcare, business, and
insurance. M2M is also the underlying technology for
the internet of things (IoT).
What your recommendations would have been to the
technology's innovators at the point of crossing the
chasm, which could have resulted in a different
outcome?
My recommendations which would have been to the technology’s innovators
of the Internet of Things which may have been at the point of crossing
chasm would result in different aspects of the future. These may be
different aspects on the product’s development:
For example, cellphones may have been around for around quite some
decades, and with every update or new arrival with new phones, there were
always new and improved features about them. One important fact about
them may be the time it took to develop phones. For instance, my
recommendations would have been to introduce the idea of touch screen
smartphones and other devices such as laptops, televisions, computers,
tablets and even cash registers. Only around the late 2000s to early 2010s
touch screen devices became insanely popular.
What your recommendations would have been to the
technology's innovators at the point of crossing the chasm,
which could have resulted in a different outcome? (Cont’d)
Another early innovator would’ve been better batteries, as making phones with better
built-in hardware could easily stop batteries from falling out and potentially destroying
the battery itself regarding the circumstances. As some phone companies may not
prioritize the need for hardware and the phone’s stability it should be easily accessible
but not easily removed. With current phones and other devices batteries are properly
inducted and placed from high quality companies such as apple, Samsung and other
high-tech industries which features great phone stability.
Wireless charging may become more useful in the future and better presented in the
tech industry, the reason why wireless charging may be so important is to promote
better and easier charging access in a liable and easy space, imagine a futuristic
smartphone with an infinite battery life because it gets charged using the wireless
signals from other devices (for example, signals from a television tower). In other words,
there’ll be no need for a conventional power source and less use for electricity in your
homes, workplaces or any convenient place which supports wired charging access.
