Case Study: IoT Data Integration for Higher Education Institution

Krišjānis Pinka, Jānis Kampars, Vladislavs Minkevičs

Abstract


Nowadays the Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most trending technologies. It is expected that by year 2020 there will be 50 billion of Internet-connected devices. Fields like smart cities and smart homes largely rely on IoT phenomena by using a wide variety of sensors for data collection, analysis and corresponding actions. The paper describes how this trending and relatively new technology is applied at Riga Technical University for educational purposes.
