Evolution of Human Society and of Things Assisted by IoT

Abstract

This paper deals with the impact of IoT on the human society that produces opportunities for exciting innovations. IoT impacts ethical and social aspects towards human society, as individuals and as community, operational and global aspects towards the technical systems. It is a generator of individual and collective advantages that can be expropriated or inhibited for the benefit just a few individuals or groups. IoT must comply with the social right to a no-fake information and so must be protected globally by international laws and policies. Without invading the individual privacy IoT can provide to each person controlled automata, robosats (robot satellites), as extension of the personal sphere of action. It contributes to the globalization as a planetary complex of connected services where the reference system has to be the human society. This paper deals with the prospective impact of IoT on the utilization of electrical energy that can allow an epochal evolution in the structure/operation of power systems and facilitate an efficient constitution of the electrical microgrids. The interaction of the electrical equipment requires their socialization that is their improved integration by a revision of their load profiles and behaviors as much as possible.
