Study Notes
Internet of Things (IoT) Applications in Smart Cities
- IoT sensors are used in traffic lights, roadways, and vehicles to gather data on traffic patterns, congestion, and accidents
- This data is used to optimize traffic flow, reduce congestion, and improve road safety
- IoT sensors installed in parking spaces detect when a spot is occupied, transmitting this data to a central server
- This guides drivers to available spots, reducing congestion and search time
- IoT-enabled cameras and sensors monitor public spaces for threats like suspicious activity or unattended bags
- Sensors in garbage cans and recycling bins monitor fill levels, optimizing waste collection routes and reducing costs
- IoT sensors installed in buildings monitor energy usage and optimize consumption
- IoT sensors in water distribution systems monitor water quality, detect leaks, and optimize water usage
Remote Monitoring
- IoT-based smart city solutions manage utilities
- Residents track and control resource consumption
- Utility companies can notify households and dispatch specialists in case of leakages or failures
- Sensors are installed on water grids to monitor quality and trigger notifications for leaks or chemical changes
- The same technology is utilized for measuring air quality in polluted areas and recommending improvements
Public Transportation
- Traffic operators collect data from multiple sources to analyze usage patterns, optimize safety and timeliness, while reducing wait times
- Data collected helps enhance the travel experience for citizens
Smart Cities Examples
- Singapore
- Amsterdam, Netherlands
- Barcelona, Spain
- London
- New York
- Copenhagen
- Hong Kong
- Oslo
- Seoul, South Korea
Healthcare Examples (IoT)
- Remote patient monitoring: Automated collection of health metrics (heart rate, blood pressure, temperature) from patients
- Glucose monitoring: Continuous, automatic monitoring of glucose levels, eliminating manual record-keeping and alerts for problematic levels
- Heart rate monitoring: Small IoT devices for continuous heart rate monitoring without wires.
- Mood-aware IoT devices: Track mental health indicators (heart rate, blood pressure) to provide insights into mental state.
- Ingestible sensors: Collect data from digestive and other systems in a less invasive way.
- Connected contact lenses: Collect data passively, non-intrusively.
- Robotic surgery: Small internet-connected robots allow less invasive and faster healing procedures
Types of Medical Wearable Devices
- Wearable fitness trackers
- Smart health watches
- Wearable blood pressure monitors
- Biosensors
IT, Culture, and Society

- Philippines was formerly known as the 'texting capital', now the 'most social nation'.
- Attitudes towards technology change to meet technological advances.
- Online reviews are becoming popular, based on information detailing items of interest.
- Technology affects basic human behaviors (decisions).
- Social media use influences knowledge and learning acquisition.
- Cyberbullying is a serious social media phenomenon.
- Internet profile (online identity, persona): Profile created by people on online platforms, communities, or websites, in social media.
Netiquette
- Combination of internet and etiquette
- Provides how people should act online
- Outlines policies for features like World Wide Web (WWW), email services, file transfer protocol (FTP), chat rooms, and instant messaging
- Etiquette guidelines for instant messaging, email communications, social media, and chat rooms
Professional Ethics
- IT experts who maintain, and are proficient in their area of expertise will follow ethical conduct
- ACM (Association of Computing Machinery) lists 24 principles for professional conduct in IT
IT Trends, Issues, and Challenges
- IT trends are general directions of development in technology
- Significant areas of development are noted in Industry, Banking, Education, Business, and Health.
