The Internet of Things
Some considerations
© 2012 GS1
The Internet of Things
• The expression was first created at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1999
• There was a research project called Electronic
Product Code
• The idea was to identify objects with tiny electronic radio
chips and use the Internet to track them
• The Internet of Things is all about connecting objects,
people, machines, devices, ...
© 2012 GS1
GRIFS Project
• GRIFS = Global RFID Interoperability forum for Standards
• European Union funded support action
• Duration: January 2008 to December 2009 (2 years)
• Members: GS1 (Coordinator), ETSI, CEN
• Objectives:
- Document RFID standards activities globally
- Establish liaisons with on-going projects and Standard
bodies
