Is Your Washing Machine a Connected Thing?
In fact the question could be about your watch, thermostat or other smart appliance, as soon as the “thing” relies on one or more sensors to function. In this case, we are close to call this thing an IoT (or SmarCoT), we just need to add WiFi, BTLE, ZigBee connectivity. Sensors are ubiquitous, integrated into smartphone, automotive, thermostat, home appliances and many more. If you want to define IoT, you should start to list the many things that use sensors. When a “thing” uses sensor(s), a CPU or DSP or combination of both is not far away, to process the sensor raw data. It becomes a “smart thing”. Connecting a smart thing look like a good idea? Just do it and you will have built a SmarCoT (Smart Connected Thing) or IoT!
