The IoT is a move to make everything as connected as possible digitally. The necessary infrastructure is getting built and reorganised to get IoT working everywhere. Data generated on this digital platform is used in real-time by concerned stakeholders, using the right software applications, to get insights or desirable outcomes or results.

Depending on the IoT use case, the right kind of software should be developed to work over the platform. The right sensor data at the edge is important for crafting the desired type of IoT application. So, here are some useful tips for you to consider, when building your IoT application on a platform.

• IoT systems must be able to collect and process data to drive real-time business processes.
• The system should simplify the deployment and maintenance of the IoT devices for scaling up operations without latency.
• There are limits on number or type of API calls to the data cache, so it must be efficiently cached where it can be processed without delay, at terabyte speeds.
• Applications should be built with massive scalability, for high performance in real-time.
• A Digital Integration Hub (DIH) architecture enables multiple applications to access huge aggregated cache, at in-memory speeds, in a computing platform.
• Organisations prefer to implement hybrid transactional / analytical processing (HTAP), which has ability to directly run on the operational data and pre-defined analytics, without impacting the system performance.

IoT has the potential to empower any industry (IIoT) or organisation, business or service, by strategically exploiting hi-tech systems and connected devices or machines, against an objective. Basically the Internet of Things is a complex framework with layers of interconnected devices and sensors, involving machines, various gadgets, apps, software, etc. collaborating with each other for a common purpose on a plan.

The Internet of Things is having a profound effect on the manufacturing sector, leading to increased automation, more efficient operations, and the creation of valuable new business models. While the application of digital technologies can bring benefits across the value-chain, it is arguably in the area of predictive maintenance that the most significant impact can be derived.

With the use of sensors and data analysis companies can spot patterns in equipment condition, their performance and could accurately predict when a failure might occur. Such foresight eliminates unplanned downtime and helps to deliver substantial productivity benefits.

How and Why IoT is used in Predictive Analytics:

There are a sectors that especially benefit from the data that IoT sensors provide, and few have already integrated these sensors heavily into existing workflows.

• IoT sensors attached to factory robots can track variables like vibration, temperature, and machine timing — then feed that information into an analytics platform. The data can then be analyzed to predict when a particular machine will need maintenance next.
• IoT sensors are also used in the predictive analytics of smart cities. With sensors, these cities can measure everything from traffic flow to the use of parking spaces, unleash vast new data streams and provide a better life quality to its inhabitants.

Improving Predictive Analytics with IoT Data:

When a business has access to large amounts of accurate data, it can use predictive analytics to make better decisions. IoT sensors can provide quality information at volumes that have never been possible before,  with this info at hand businesses can improve their ability to forecast the future significantly.

These sensors are already used in a few different capacities — like manufacturing and smart cities. It’s likely that, data becomes more valuable and organizations look for ways to implement IOT to improve their ability to predict future events. Ultimately, IIoT-enabled predictive maintenance provides a brave new world for manufacturers looking to improve productivity, underpin safety and deliver lower costs.

The massive lockdown triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic has an unprecedented impact on our lives. The repercussions of the lockdown will be long lasting in our lives and the economy. The crisis has its impact on the Internet of Things too, particularly on the technologies and applications involved in it. In the past few weeks we have witnessed the effect of COVID-19 Lockdown on all types of businesses and organisations and their functioning.

The ‘work from home’ method has been adopted widely by most sectors, because of the lockdown, to maintain social-distance and avoid or restrict our movement, Let us see how it has impacted on IoT in this scenario,

The disease has brought business in produces and services to a standstill. Logistics and transportation are affected badly as demand and supply is paralysed. Whatever processes can be automated will be done so. Many new entrants will have to try a similar methodology to keep things going. However, personal IoT device has dropped in demand, despite consumers being indoor,s in the great lockdown.

Remote access is important. So, telecommunications is now crucial for tools and applications that work online. Desktop and mobile apps, video calling apps, are now at the forefront for communicating. Organisations having remote access platforms or IoT implementation are now greatly benefited. People can run offices, businesses and transactions (financial too) virtually in real-time. In the near future automation and IoT applications are sure to gain preference in all sectors, as it doesn’t risk human exposure.

The Digital Twins technology is useful. Developed as part of digitisation and IoT platforms, Digital Twins tech will be very helpful in this crisis period. Digital Twins can create a digital representation of a process, machinery or supply chain, to enable control to both providers and customers. It enables in planning further to overcome the predictable challenges ahead.

Drones are being deployed. Drones have been deployed in new roles. A concept akin to IoT, they are remote controlled mini quadcopters that are being deployed in this scenario for police surveillance, aerial monitoring of spaces and assets, for delivery of medical supplies, for broadcast media, for agriculture and others.

Installing of retrofit IOT solutions is gaining popularity. Those not digitally connected or enabled, will find a retrofit solution beneficial although not a customised solution. It can be a quick fix in the need of the hour,

 Smart city platform gains importance. During this period of crisis an overlaying data platform of a smart city initiative can be a most important tool that can leveraged various functions.

Tracking & monitoring solutions get extensive uses. Supply chains disruption and demand changes can be easily adopted by a tracking and monitoring solution. It also helps to cut costs and to plan ahead.

Specific health applications using IoT. Telephonic or video conferencing methods are being used by doctors for consultation and more so during Lockdown. Specific IoT devises can perform digital diagnostics. Remote IOT monitoring solution for elderly and chronic patients is a boon. Robots too have found use in hospital tasks.

The present generation is living and working in an increasingly digital world. Legacy systems are getting integrated with digital ones as the digital transformation expands worldwide. The current generation has the privilege of the internet which is now available all the time and practically part of their lives.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is not just part of smart connected devices and smartphones, but is also spreading across financial and industrial sectors. Industrial IoT (IIoT) is reshaping things in manufacturing and smart products radically.

Companies are integrating legacy systems to an IoT platform to make fully automated factories or management systems. All activities can be monitored and controlled through the digital platform. This is happening in a wider scale with the advent of smart city projects.

Protection & Safety. However, the digital environment is not immune to security threats and cyber-attacks. Thus the digital environment and IoT platforms too have to be protected and secured to ensure trust and reliability in use and function, to all stakeholders. There are some simple ways to prevent data compromise and breaches or vulnerabilities.

Better to avoid Bluetooth. Bluetooth which is a wireless technology for data sharing in physical proximity of devices does not use the internet. But it is also not perfectly safe either. Avoid it as it can be hacked.

To prevent vulnerability turn it off when not in use or, keep it in ‘non-discoverable’ mode; decline ‘pair with device’ requests if an unknown source. You can also install anti-virus and firewall in such devices.

Updates & Passwords. No system can be 100% safe, so update your devices’ software regularly to avoid any data breach. A strong password is an IoT way of protection, so follow the guidelines carefully.

Protection via VPN connection. Top Virtual Private Network (VPN) providers offer a practical and safe way as they provide encrypted data transmission, masking your IP address and offer cyber security features.

GDPR Compliant. One of the ways to ensure safety of your IoT solutions and proprietary data is to build it GDPR compliant.

Data privacy is an issue in the wake of cyber-attacks and data breaches or leaks, mainly owing to the enormous data traffic and storage on the web and connected systems. To prevent data compromise be ahead in prevention and protection. To prevent phishing and data theft avoid sharing personal information on social media or exact location. Read the fine print before sign-up or clicking ‘I Agree’.

However, new technologies and software are being developed updated and shared for better security consolidation over the internet. It is in your hands to adopt the right strategy, hardware and software to build and use the preferred IoT platform and systems.

IoT is a framework of complex layers of interconnected devices, sensors, machines, gadgets, software, etc. It empowers any industry (IIoT), business, service or organisation, to plan and fully exploit hi-tech systems and connected devices or machines.

With new technologies being introduced, the world and our lifestyles are also changing significantly. We see Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) getting into our daily activities and life. The result of these technologies is that we get vacuum cleaners that learn the layout of the room; we see the banking sector implementing AI and ML to protect personal finances and detect anomalies; we see retail e-stores use this tech to cleverly manage products & services with customer preferences.

Evidently the Internet of Things (IoT) is resorting to AI and ML increasingly to optimise business operations across many industrial and commercial sectors .it also indicates that an increasing number of devices and sensors are being developed and deployed across many industries and services. Thereby an unprecedented volume of data is being generated. This is nearly impossible to be utilised or assimilated without the AI and ML involvement.

AI and ML are now turning into practical necessities because of data and software proliferation, as they are designed to handle sophisticated services that are being demanded ever more in the markets.  They find use in cross-vertical areas, such as logistics, optimisation, connected vehicles and even security & vigilance. It has started working in bank ATM security monitoring, in fleet tracking, heart monitors and home entertainment.

It all boils down to the fact that AI and ML help to better customer experience, lower a lot of costs, automate and robotise, offer more effective solutions with tangible benefits to all who use the related products and services. So businesses and organisations cannot ignore AI completely hereafter. They have to understand and correctly utilise this very potential combination of AI and ML with human potential to set themselves apart from the completion in the coming days.

The impact of digital transformation is being felt in all quarters of industry and business globally. Evolving customer needs has seen growing complexity in machine design and manufacturing. So, OEM machine builders have to step up from their traditional machine design practices to deliver ‘smart’ machines that yield higher throughput and are safer, but reduce cost of operation.

If machine builders don’t integrate an Industrial IoT solution into their system first, they will miss out on an opportunity to grow and also to provide additional services to their customers or clients. It is now time an industrial Internet of Things solution is incorporated into the machines that are being built by them, again to provide those additional services for the customers.

OEMs should integrate industrial IoT solutions with their machines, in the manufacturing process and offer to sell the machine itself as a service based on its performance. The GPS Tracking system used with sensing devices built in to transfer data on various parameters is useful for monitoring and assessing performance in real-time. A web-based IoT platform can integrate a mobile app for users.

The IoT solution is to leverage and differentiate the OEM from other competitors. Obviously empowering OEMs with IoT offers great benefits in this digital age.

• Performance: By monitoring machine performance the OEM can show value addition to the customers’ production process. New business models tend to sell machine as a service, with a performance based price structure. Customers benefit by reducing process lead time, waste and downtimes. In machine as a service customer does not pay for defects or downtime or replacement.
• Maintenance: OEMs can collect useful data if the machine is connected online. the data accessible will show how the machine is working, if any anomaly is detected. So stakeholders can take be warned and made to take corrective actions. Analysing the data helps recognise machine failure in advance and help predictive maintenance. The data analysed can also help OEM to improve on maintenance, performance and make design alterations if required.
• Big Data: if data is collected from all over the world a huge set of data can be obtained. This Big Data can be used to understand how machine design can be improved. A predictive maintenance strategy can be developed in a global scale with Big Data analysis by the manufacturer. As for the customer, he gets useful insights out of Big Data analysis, to his advantage that the OEM can share. Statistics and KPIs will help customers to benchmark their machine’s (or machinery’s) performance against the competition in the market.

By 2025, the smart waste market is expected to grow to 223.6 million with a CAGR of 17.3 percent. Waste management is one more field where implementation of IoT can help. Nowadays, municipal governments are using this technology to keep cities clean. Smart Waste Management System aims to address environmental issues associated with inefficient waste management and also reduce operational costs related with waste management.

The main challenge of waste management

Recycling and other methods of handling waste such as commercial composting and waste-to-energy systems have been growing in popularity since from 1970s, hence the maximum quality of waste is still ends up in a landfill. Municipal governments often don’t deal with waste management as effectively as they could.

In most cities, a waste management service provider follows a set of predetermined route to empty the street trash bins. Bins will be emptied whether they are full or not, which leads to wasting fuel and other resources.

These inefficiency presents a major challenge for waste management. Some bins may be empty most of the time, while others are packed to overflowing.

IoT Applications in Waste Management

The most common IoT application in waste management operations is automated route optimization of garbage pickup trucks. Sensor-enabled and internet-connected garbage bins can collect information on fill level, location, temperature and etc.

With a user interface finding the locations and fill levels of all bins, waste collectors can get an automated route planned for them that has prioritized areas in urgent need of clean-up and avoided disposal units that still have room. This effective solution reduces waste collection frequency dramatically, enabling you to save on fuels, labor and fleet maintenance costs. It has been seen that the solution has reduced the operational cost of municipalities up to 80%.

Future of IoT Applications in Waste Management

Ultimate goal of IoT applications in waste management is producing leaner operations as well as delivering higher quality services to the country. A growing collection of interlinked autonomous systems are managing everyday urban operations and improving both citizen experiences and our carbon footprint.

Manufacturers who think beyond the use of sensors can consider implementing IoT with which they can build smarter applications as per the business need.

The emerging technologies of IoT (Internet of Things) may create some confusion as the concepts of applications have similar approach and often are intricately connected. This is especially so when we talk about the concepts of Digital Twins & Digital Threads, which work in the same type of environments.

Actually the two concepts have been around for a long time but new technologies of IoT have made them now accessible, useful and powerful. In IoT the two concepts are inextricably connected to current industrial applications and environments. Before we differential the two, the way to describe the two concepts is as – a digital thread unites the diverse but interrelated data to uncover useful insights; whereas data unification is a critical pre-requisite to build a digital twin models.

DIGITAL THREAD CONCEPT. The digital thread concept creates a way to universally access data as a single source. When it is implemented across the enterprise it aims to bring consistency and promote collaboration by leveraging a robust cache of data to align different functions. The data cache has real-time data synchronisation to make available all upstream and downstream information.

Large industrial enterprises with a global presence can use digital thread. It seeks to bring advanced product innovation and differentiation, besides optimising processes and efficiencies. It aims to empower employees for higher productivity and quality. For equipping the employees with right information at the right time across the value chain, it leverages a variety of technologies for this. In an enterprise, data usually comes from CRM, ERP, BOM, MES, CAD and others. Digital Threads can potentially go beyond manufacturing software to include other sources of related software & data. It is flexible to adapt to the identified use case and used for some business outcomes needed by enterprises.

DIGITAL TWIN CONCEPT. The digital twin is developed as a digital model which is a virtual representation of its physical counterpart. But they can also be developed for other purposes like operations, processes or even employee tasks. These models are getting more usage in industrial sectors. It is to understand the physical model to predict behaviour or reactions and draw better insights. Digital Twins leverage multiple data caches. It includes anything from sensor data to business system data. One digital twin model can be leverage by many other applications and for different roles. New and additional value can be discovered. For instance, the same model involved in quality assurance can assist a technician at a service call.

Into the Future. The two technological concepts are more used by the industrial enterprise to drive business outcomes and unlock opportunities. Emerging tech like VR and AR are being integrated into these concepts.to realise value, streamline processes and empower employees, enabling cost and time savings.
