Consumer vs Industrial IoT domains

  • Industrial IoT is similar to the consumer IoT,
  • but the difference is that it has this is used in a commercial area that is industries.

  • They connect with each other using different standards for different applications

Short-Range Access Technologies for IoT

  • Historical solutions (Bluetooth, IEEE 802.15.4, IETF stacks,…) are evolving to maintain competitiveness in growing IoT market
  • IEEE 802.11ah(HaLow), low-cost, large-scale connectibity across massive deployments
  • Unlicensed Low-Power Wide Area (LPWA) networks rapidly emerge to support early stages of the IoT development, until standardized cellular M2M solutions enter the market.

Tactile Internet

  • The Tactile Internet will be the next evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT), encompassing human-to-machine and machine-to-machine interaction.
  • It will enable real-time interactive systems with a raft of industrial, societal and business use cases.
