eBook – The Internet Of Things
A critique of ambient technology and the all-seeing network of RFID by Rob van Kranenburg, The Internet of Things is the second issue in the series of Network Notebooks. Rob examines what impact RFID and other systems, will have on our cities and our wider society.
He tells of his early encounters with the kind of location-based technologies that will soon become commonplace, and what they may mean for us all. He explores the emergence of the “internet of things”, tracing us through its origins in the mundane back-end world of the international supply chain to the domestic applications that already exist in an embryonic stage. He also explains how the adoption of he technologies of the City Control is not inevitable, nor something that we must kindly accept nor sleepwalk into.
