The concept of the Internet of Things we are no strangers, both in life and work will come into contact with this word, but to ask what the Internet of Things devices? Many people may not have a clearer concept of the device may also just stay in the I have seen I have used this impression.
In fact, the Internet of Things is the object and network connection, to achieve intelligent identification of remote monitoring and management equipment, through a variety of network connections for the transmission of data to achieve remote control and remote maintenance role.
According to the different ways of network connection, it can be divided into wired IoT devices and wireless IoT devices.
Wired IoT devices usually refer to devices connected to the network through network cables and Ethernet, which are commonly used in industrial and commercial fields, such as gateways, switching prices, industrial robots, surveillance cameras and so on.
Wireless IoT devices refer to devices connected to the network through 4G, WIF1, Bluetooth, etc., which are used in life, industry, and business, such as industrial gateways, smart speakers, and smart homes.
For those partners whose classification is not yet clear, we introduce them from the use of functional areas.
1、Smart home devices
I believe that the smart home equipment is our most common contact with the Internet of Things products, major brands of smart speakers, intelligent sweeping robots, smart home gateway and so on are very practical products. Users can achieve remote control of home appliances through mobile phones, very convenient, improve the quality of life.
2、Industrial Intelligent Gateway
Industrial intelligent gateway is an Internet of things device for industrial automation, data collection and remote monitoring. According to the networking and data acquisition of industrial equipment, it can achieve data monitoring and predictive maintenance, which can improve the efficiency of production, management and maintenance, and it is widely used in industrial control fields, such as smart factories, intelligent water, energy control.
3、Life safety equipment
Medical security IoT devices can be remote real-time understanding of the patient’s body data, at any time to pay attention to the patient, the same can also be applied to daily life health data monitoring, smart watches is a common example. More importantly, it can be applied to the emergency rescue of natural disasters, rapid positioning and rescue.
4、Vehicle Networking
Vehicle entertainment, navigation and maintenance monitoring are the main applications of the Internet of Vehicles (IoV), which allows passengers to enjoy more comfortable and safer travelling. In addition, the combination of IoT and artificial intelligence driverless car technology is also an important application in the future.
