In practice, these interconnected devices can perform complex tasks without the need for human intervention, such as data collection over the Internet.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is an IoT device?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Something that differentiates IoT devices from other digital devices is not just their function of connecting to the internet. It is also your ability to exchange information with other devices. The aim is to improve the performance itself and other peripherals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This all seems a long way from our daily lives, doesn't it? However, we live surrounded by devices such as smart refrigerators, autonomous cars, smart lamps <\/em>and others.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n All of them are equipped with chips, sensors and other features that allow the exchange of information with systems and other devices. In addition, the industry works daily to produce specific and more efficient components, focused on this process.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a set of factors that define the concept of IoT. So we can't see it as a massive and unique technology. In general, its main components are IoT devices \u2014mentioned above\u2014communications networks, and control systems.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n It's equipment you've seen in your daily life. From large appliances \u2014smart refrigerators, self-driving cars\u2014to smaller objects like smart bulbs and smartwatches.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this context, the most important thing is that these devices have in their construction, the correct components that enable communication: chips, sensors, antennas, trackers and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many industry sectors have been working hard to make ioT-facing components increasingly available.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Currently, we already see tiny chips and sensors, which in addition to promoting communication between devices, consume very little energy, being ideal for smaller devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Communication technologies involve everything we're used to using: technologies such as wi-fi, bluetooth and even the recent NFC (Near Field Communication).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of them have limited range and, for this reason, rely on mobile networks such as 3G, 4G and the newer 5G.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3G and 4G networks are aimed at mobile devices such as smartphones and notebooks, which focus their applications on text, voice, image and video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This feature means that IoT cannot access such devices efficiently. To do this, it is necessary to optimize these devices in order to obtain a low power consumption and processing resources. It is in this context that 5G enters<\/a> .\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once IoT is highly popularized, there will be devices with chips, sensors scattered everywhere. Each of these devices will need connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fortunately, with IPv6, a standard that grants a high number of addresses to devices \u2014making the number of addresses nearly unlimited\u2014connecting so many equipment will be more workable.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n The current connection limitations come from the technologies we currently have. Our networks have not been developed to support so many connections, from such different devices. So there is great hope with 5G connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This network, in addition to offering more speed in data transmission, enables each IoT technology to use only the resources needed to accomplish its tasks.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n This avoids network failures, such as power expenditure\u2014something inadmissible on battery-powered equipment.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n In practice, 5G networks have already begun to be deployed in the industrial environment around the mute, including Brazil. As this technology becomes popular, the number of IoT devices and applications is expected to grow proportionally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Connecting with the Internet and other devices alone is not enough to define IoT technology. The data transmitted between one device and another need to be collected and analyzed, either in the device itself or in a control system.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n For example, imagine a smart home with integrated temperature control, safety monitoring, and lighting management. All information from these devices is sent to a system that controls each.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Such a system can be a service in the clouds, which can access the devices remotely. Thus, the owner does not need to update them manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As we said earlier, the Internet of Things as well as its devices are already part of our daily lives. Some examples of applying IoT in practice are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Something that differentiates IoT devices from other technologies present in the world goes beyond simple Internet connection. They are also able to exchange valuable information about their tasks with other devices.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this respect, we can say that the greatest highlight of a smart device is its power of communication, which facilitates the exchange of data in order to improve its performance and other equipment connected to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Taking advantage of a system and devices based on IoT allows us to solve numerous problems, either in everyday life or in the industrial sphere. Here are the main benefits of IoT devices.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n IoT devices are able to perform tasks more efficiently while continuously improving their performance. In this way, errors are reduced, increasing the quality of deliveries and improving ROI (Return on Investment).<\/p>\n\n\n\n IoT technologies were essential for the democratization of remote work. Its devices assist in the management of tasks, improving the organization and improving the productivity of employees.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to research conducted by IDC Predictions<\/a>, IoT could move up to $1 trillion by 2022. This will benefit various market segments, especially the retail and industrial sectors.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Systems that use machines reduce production and personnel costs. In this respect, the business can solve any problem via central operations, without requiring people to go to the site.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n This boils down to savings in spending on hiring, commuting and others.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n So far, you have understood that IoT positively affects society, both personally and industrially. One of the biggest impacts of the Internet of Things is the gain of speed in data transfer, which generates more effective decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another aspect is the popularization of wireless communication<\/a>. Cables have always been technologically limiting factors, even though they are still extremely important.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, as IoT progresses, more wireless devices emerge to optimize and accelerate communication between devices.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have already cited here some examples of the application of IoT technology in our daily lives. Now, let's talk about known devices in the market, which already use this solution in their processes. They are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the industrial<\/a> industry, IoT can be leveraged in countless ways. There are, for example, sensors in machinery responsible for checking the levels of temperature, pressure, extrusion speed and operation cycle of the machine. Other applications are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the same way as all electronic devices produced and marketed in Brazil, IoT devices must also obtain Anatel certification. This certification is mandatory and<\/a> serves to ensure the quality and credibility of the device.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thus, consumers understand that devices are safe for use. Overall, the certification process involves a few steps, which are:<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat are the main elements of IoT?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
