Abstract:
WoT (Web of Things) is a standard that was introduced by the World Wide Web Consortium in order to counter the fragmentation in the Internet of Things. The standard focuses on using existing and approved web standards like REST or JSON-LD to accomplish this task. Within Siemens AG this standard has reached a wide spread over all domains and is already used in some products.
In this presentation we are going to see what Web of Things is and what is on the roadmap for the next charter. With concrete usecases and real examples from different users, we will see how easy it is to attach new devices and use them. The simple usage will be also demonstrated in a live demo.
