Hiya everyone! Haven't written in a while, i've been very busy with college but I'm back at it for my second mission.
In this mission there were various different options from the last creativity mission that we've done on podcasts. This time I had to form an entirely different group which we thankfully did right after our presentations a couple of weeks ago. There were options such as Youtube, memes, blogging but I wanted to do research on something entirely new to me and to the world itself which was Internet of things. Digital audio was pretty self explanatory but I had no idea what I would be doing for Iot and my group felt the same way, i asked my lecturer Shaun and he thought that a questionnaire would be a good idea which we thought was pretty interesting so we went with it. My goals for this mission are entirely different from my previous one. Before we had to think of questions for this questionnaire we had to research the importance of internet of things and what are the cons that are happening in everyday life. In my own research internet of things is a variety of devices that are connected to the internet such as thermostats, coffee makers, security systems etc.. The future is increasing at such a rapid pace that in a couple of years time we'll have walk in closets that choose our outfits for us based on the weather it is outside. We use the internet of things to communicate with each other and with systems using ''sensors, processors and communication hardware''. But even if this sounds incredible there are obvious issues to this as there would be in internet connected devices.
We decided on our goals for this questionnaire to be based upon security related issues and how many internet connected devices the person has and if they trust them. I decided to do a mind map based on ideas for these questions and sent them off to my group so they could come up with their own. The problem we had with the questionnaire weren't the questions themselves, it was finding a suitable website to do this. Nevertheless one of the people in my group suggested a website because he knew some from his secondary school and he did the questionnaire. Here is the questionnaire if you guys ever wanna do it.
We thought the questionnaire wasn't enough as we had to do 30 hours max of research so we thought of a mind map for everyday devices people use at home, work, travel, school etc.. I will be talking about it in detail in my presentation. I'm excited but nervous since I knew a lot about podcasts but internet of things is completely foreign to me. But I will keep you updated with my reflection.
I don't want to give too many details away but I'll tell you how I got on in my second blog post before my presentation! I had fun with this mission and I didn't know the amount of daily devices that are being made everyday that exceed futuristic expectations. Even hearing about TESLA was so out of the ordinary and the new update that came with it which was basically clicking a button on their phone app and letting the car come to you was unbelievable. There are so many different devices that are either in the works or they're already completed and ready to be launched. There's also so much hacking that's to do with the internet of things, there are crazy stories out there believe me hahaha. I stumbled upon a website link during my research which I enjoyed reading, it's basically ''The weirdest and worst IOT attacks of all time''. I'll definitely be talking about some of the stuff in my presentation as I tend to get through a presentation quicker by talking about bizarre things. In 2019 over 100 million IoT devices have been hacked that's more than I can count on my fingers definitely.
Anyway that's all for today folks, CYA <3
