Future of Internet

The Internet already has such a huge impact on us today. How much more can it impact us? What will happen? Nothing is definite on what's going to happen in future but of course, many have their various predictions.

According to Bridget Shirvell, here are some predictions research companies have about the future of Internet:

Information sharing over the Internet will be so effortlessly interwoven into our daily lives that will be invisible. It will be flowing through electricity, often through machine intermediaries
The Internet of things, artificial intelligence and big data will make people more aware of their world and their own behavior.
Augmented reality and wearable devices will be implemented to monitor and give quick feedback on daily life. especially in regard to personal health.
The spread of "Ubernet" will diminish the meaning of borders, and new "nations" of those with shared interests may emerge online and exist beyond the capacity of current nation-states to control.
An internet-enabled revolution in education will spread more opportunities with less money spent on buildings and teachers.
The internet will soon be entirely wireless
The internet will carry exabytes or even zettabytes of content.
It will attract more hackers because more critical infrastructure like the electric grid will be online..

It is impossible to go into detail of every point mentioned above. Therefore, Internet of things will be the focus for this post.

Internet of Things

The Internet of things (IoT) is a network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors and connectivity to enable it to achieve greater value and service by exchanging data with the manufacturer, operator and other connected devices. Each thing is uniquely identifiable through it embedded computing system but is able to perform within the existing Internet infrastructure.

IoT technology is already being incorporated and utilized in our lives today!

It is amazing how the Internet is already being utilized to this extent in our daily lives. There are gadgets that have already been made or are in the process of being made that incorporate IoT technology. One clear example of such a gadget would be Sen.se Mother.

The video below shows what it typically can be used for. Although it is in a different language, it is pretty easy to understand what its uses are.

Sen.se mother is actually a cunning spy, ready to report on every detail of family movements and daily activities. They have small sensors known as motion cookies which can be given to every family member so everyone knows where everyone else is at any given time, as long as there is access to the app. The motion cookies are small and slick, they can be affixed to almost anything. They are really smart and can detect and analyze the movements of objects and people. They also include a sensor that measures the surrounding temperature. It simply needs to be connected to the Internet router.

How to use it?
1) Select the use you want to make
2) Place a motion cookies on the appropriate object
3) Monitor every detail of the activity anytime you like
4) Get alerts when it's important

For more information, https://sen.se/store/mother/ (Can be bought for $299 if anyone wants one!)

Sen.se mother is just one of the many gadgets that utilizes Internet in such an easy yet meaningful way. They are of course many other products created or yet to be created that will use IoT. With IoT already being implemented, it is a matter of time where we will be living in a world where literally without internet, nothing can function. I mean who knows! It is quite cool and scary at the same time, from what we used to be to what we have evolved to today.

I'll end with an image that just shows how impactful IoT technology alone will be in the next coming few years in terms of it being utilized in different areas such as merchandising, E-commerce and health and medicine.
