What is the Internet of Things?
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a computer system, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals, and people with unique identifiers (UIDs) that provide the ability to transmit data over a network without the need for human-to-computer interaction. They have with humans.
An IoT objectcan be a person with a heart monitor implant, a farm animal with a biological transmitter, a vehicle with a low tire pressure sensor, or any natural or artificial object that can have a dedicated IP address and be able to transmit data. Be on a network. Patsa Industry is a leader in providing these services in our beloved country Iran.
Intelligentsystems and the Internet of Things are driven by a combination of the following components:
Sensors and actuators
We are adding a digital neural network system to the world around us. Location data using GPS sensors, visual and audio data using cameras and microphones, along with sensory sensors that can measure everything from temperature to pressure changes.
connections
These inputs are digitized and placed on communication networks. These networks consist of wired / wireless protocols such as Ethernet, Wi-Fi, 4G / LTE, LAN, WAN, etc.
People and processes
These network inputs can be combined with two-way systems that integrate data, people, processes and systems for better decision making. These systems can be used in the following cases:
- Customer communication and support
- Analysis and Cloud / API
- Update and configure various systems
- Remote monitoring and maintenance
- Control and automation
- Supply Chain Management
- Security and energy
- Mobile devices and mobile applications
- Location registration and tracking
- Financial affairs and services
This is an example of an IoT system consisting of 3 layers:
- Data collection through sensors, antennas, micro-controllers
- Coping, matching and transferring data via gateway, hub
- Data analysis, acting through
-
- User interface, smart phone, HMI
- Analysis of commercial applications such as, CRM, ERP
- Infrastructure systems
The interaction between these components is creating new types of smart applications and services .

Industrial Internet of Things
The Internet of Things (IIoT) refers to interconnected sensors, gadgets, and other devices related to industrial computer applications, including power generation and management. This connection enables data collection, exchange and analysis, and potentially improves productivity as well as other economic benefits. IIoT is the evolution of a distributed control system (DCS) that uses From cloud computing, it provides the possibility of correcting and optimizing process control in a higher degree of automation.

Edge computing is a distributed computing paradigm that brings computing and data storage closer to where it is needed, to improve response time and save bandwidth.
Advantages
- Makes it possible to reduce the use of network bandwidth
- Loads charge / process loads to smart edge devices
- Enables faster response time (lower latency) by storing content on Edge devices
- Enables data storage on local devices
- At least 40% of the data generated by the IoT is currently stored, processed, and operated in or near the network.
- Reduce network traffic
- Lower transfer cost
Patsa Industry offers comprehensive industrial IoT solutions with the efficiency of the most modern Edge computing products.

IoT market
How big is the IoT market?
Bain & Company predicts that IoT hardware and software revenue will exceed $ 450 billion annually by 2021.
McKinsey & Company estimates the IoT will have a $ 11.1 trillion impact on the global economy by 2025.
IHS Markit estimates that the number of connected IoT devices will increase by 12% annually to $ 125 billion by 2030.
Gartner estimates that 20.8 billion connected devices will be in use by 2020, and total spending on IoT devices and services will reach $ 3.7 trillion by 2018.
In the not-too-distant future, hundreds of millions, then billions of people and businesses with billions and then trillions of smart and communication devices, will expand the boundaries of current systems and create the potential to change the way we work, learn, entertain. And innovation.
Impact on trade
The consequences of this process are enormous. Independent product markets and vertically defined applications generally become part of a larger “horizontal” network. This process creates new types of business areas that have not been defined before.
