Enabling Technologies for IoT Design and Test

Application Notes

Kevin Ashton of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is credited with coining the phrase “the Internet of Things” in 1999 as part of a presentation about RFID tags. He described his vision as follows:

 

“Today, computers—and, therefore, the Internet—are almost wholly dependent on human beings for information... The problem is, people have limited time, attention and accuracy—all of which means they are not very good at capturing data about things in the real world. If we had computers that knew everything there was to know about things—using data they gathered without any help from us—we would be able to track and count everything and greatly reduce waste, loss and cost. We would know when things need replacing, repairing or recalling, and whether they were fresh or past their best.”
