Definition of the Internet of Things

The Internet of Things is an important part of a new generation of information technology. The English name of the Internet of Things is "The Internet of things." As the name suggests, the Internet of Things is the "Internet of Things Connected." This has two meanings: First, the core and foundation of the Internet of Things is still the Internet, which is an extension and expansion network based on the Internet; and secondly, its user end extends and expands to any object and object to carry out information. Exchange and communication. Therefore, the definition of the Internet of Things is: through information-sensing devices such as radio frequency identification (RFID), infrared sensors, global positioning systems, and laser scanners, according to the agreed protocol, any object is connected to the Internet for information exchange and communication. To realize intelligent identification, positioning, tracking, monitoring and management of objects.

The English name of the content Internet of Things is "The Internet of Things", referred to as: IOT. The IoT collects any objects or processes that require monitoring, connection, and interaction in real time through sensors, radio frequency identification technologies, global positioning systems, and other technologies, and collects sound, light, heat, electricity, mechanics, chemistry, biology, location, and other needs. The information, through various types of possible network access, realizes ubiquitous links between objects and objects, objects and people, and realizes the intelligent perception, identification and management of items and processes.
The Internet of Things is a fusion of intelligent perception and recognition technology with pervasive computing and ubiquitous networks. It is known as the third wave of the development of the world's information industry following the computer and the Internet. It is not so much the Internet of Things as the Internet, it is better to say that the Internet of Things is the business and the application, and the Internet of Things is also considered as the application expansion of the Internet. Therefore, application innovation is the core of the development of the Internet of Things. Innovation 2.0, with user experience as the core, is the soul of the development of the Internet of Things.

The meaning of "material" The "material" here must meet the following conditions before it can be included in the "Internet of Things":
1, to have corresponding information receiver;
2, there must be data transmission path;
3, must have a certain storage function;
4, have a CPU;
5, have an operating system;
6, have a dedicated application program;
7, have a data transmitter;
8. Follow the Internet of Things communications protocol;
9. There is a unique number that can be identified in the world network.

The "Chinese-style" definition of the Internet of Things refers to Ubiquitous end devices and facilities, including sensors, mobile terminals, industrial systems, and buildings that have "intrinsic intelligence." Control systems, home smart devices, video surveillance systems, and “external enablers” (such as RFID-attached assets, individuals and vehicles that carry wireless terminals, etc.) "Animals" or "smart dust" (Mote) for interoperability (M2M), Grand Integration, and cloud-based SaaS through various wireless and/or wired long-distance and/or short-distance communication networks Operational modes, such as Intranet, Extranet, and/or Internet, use appropriate information security mechanisms to provide secure, controlled, and personalized real-time online monitoring, location tracking, Alarm linkage, dispatch command, plan management, remote control, security prevention, remote maintenance, online upgrade, statistical report, decision Who led the desktop (showcasing the Cockpit Dashboard) and other management and service functions, to achieve the "Everything" and "efficiency, energy saving, safety, environmental protection" and "tube, control, camp" integration.

Definition of the EU In September 2009, at the China-EU Seminar on Internet of Things and Corporate Environment held in Beijing, Dr. Lorent Ferderix, Head of the RFID Division of the Information and Social Media Division of the European Commission, gave the definition of the Internet of Things in the European Union: The Internet of Things is a Dynamic global network infrastructure, which has self-organizing capabilities based on standards and interoperable communication protocols, where physical and virtual "things" have identities, physical properties, virtual features, and intelligent interfaces, and with information networks Integration. The Internet of Things will work with the media internet, service internet, and corporate internet to form the future internet.
