But like all things digital, the IoT is rapidly evolving from the very early days of simple sensors designed to help manufacturers automate their processes, to the wide-variety of connected devices that record our steps using our watches, and allow us to talk to people through our doorbells.Early on, in an effort to make sense of just how these devices fit into our world, people started referring to them as dumb and smart. This was fine for a while.
It may seem like just semantics but, in order to understand the limitations as well as the opportunities that the IoT presents, you have to be able to talk about it in a way that accurately describes how the technology and its capabilities are changing. Today, these processing platforms are most often located in the cloud somewhere because, even though it mayotherwise, smart devices do not have the on-board power to make complex decisions. As devices become more capable, their ability to make decisions about the world around them will transform our definition of dumb and smart and, in many instances, our lives.A good, real-life example comes from the City of Los Angeles. In 2017, the city’s fire department asked T-Mobile for.
Even by today's standards this device is not smart. By linking it to the cloud, it creates a network effect that takes simple data and wraps it in intelligence and analytics that converts it into information first responders can actually use to make decisions.
