Fog Computing in the context of Smart Home, voice assistant and the future of IoT
Abstract
Fog Computing is the distributed computing layer that lies between the user and the cloud. A successful fog architecture reduces delay or latency and increases efficiency. This paper describes the development and implementation of a distributed computing architecture applied to an automation environment that uses Fog Computing as an intermediary with the cloud computing layer. This study used a Raspberry Pi V3 board connected to end control elements such as servomotors and relays, indicators and thermal sensors. All is controlled by an automation framework that receives orders from Siri and executes them through predetermined instructions. The cloud connection benefits from a reduced amount of data transmission, because it only receives relevant information for analysis.
