MPSTME Case Study on IoT Sem X

Category: Domestic
Description:
A. Prof SMM, is travelling to his college to teach his final-year students. He gets a message
on his communicator informing him that his favourite type of shirts (Oxfords) are available
in new colours in the mall which he is about to pass; and would he be interested in
purchasing them.
B. Prof SMM would like to visit personally and inquires of his communicator whether there
is sufficient time for shopping and confirms that he can make it to class on time.
C. He accepts the request to shop and his car reroutes him to the mall.
D. His communicator directs him to the correct aisle where he views the latest shirts and
colours. Ultimately he selects 3 shirts and styles from the online catalogue and places the
order.
E. He is measured in 3-D and is informed that his dimensions have changed slightly (around
the waist!) and that his new dimensions are being updated.
F. The 3-D printers commence printing his shirts.
G. His communicator informs him that while he waits, there is a special sale on diet foods
and supplements which he might be interested in. He proceeds to that aisle.
H. After a while he walks to the pick-up counter, picks up his order and walks out.
I. His m-wallet pays the bills incurred.
J. His car automatically reroutes him through the fastest route to his college. (You will be
happy to note Prof SMM reached his college on time).
