Spine and neck pain is the most common type of pain experienced by people whose work requires sitting for long hours during the day. Therefore, many of them resort to dealing with this matter in several ways, and these methods differ in their effectiveness and negative effects. In this paper, we designed a device to alert the user to the need to adjust their sitting and to generate an alert when they are sitting inappropriately. When trying this device, the results were promising and accurate in terms of the results of the sequential reading of the movement of the flexible sensor, which helps the system to give alerts at the right time in the event of curvature of the spine, in addition to the ease of use of this device.

Traditional Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Tag Equipment has some problems like these: it is difficult to realize if the tag is kept out, destroyed, or taken away abnormally. It cant accurately judge where the area the tag had moved to is. Besides, it is difficult to distinguish the right of the tag in the Tag Management. To solve these issues, this paper serves with a method which is based on the Internet of Things (IOT). It mainly includes as the following: the tag is activated in the Controlled Area, the judgment of the tag access the Controlled Area, whether the tag exists in the Controlled Area or not. These methods can reform the problems that the Traditional RFID Tag Equipment has.

The Internet that most of us knows as the World Wide Web is expanding beyond PCs and mobile devices. Called the “Internet of things”, this movement will link consumer devices, enterprise assets, media and everyday items, such as packaged goods, to the Internet at an increasing rate. Why the push? New business models and new ways of interacting with customers, employees and suppliers are possible when physical items are linked to the Internet. In theory, the Internet of things will make it possible for a connected refrigerator to automatically order milk. However, history has shown that, even though a technology can be transformational, it takes a series of many small evolutions before the consumer and business world are ready for transformational models like this. We believe that, at first, the sweet spot for the Internet of things will be to use it in simple ways that extend or enhance an existing process. For example, a washing machine that has a 2D bar code can enable a smartphone user to view the instruction manual, or a service person to view the service history and parts list. In contrast, using the Internet of things technologies to make a washing machine that can auto-detect clothes by reading the RFID tags on the garments' labels, and consequently run at the right settings, is less likely to gain adoption.

The rise in technology has had a tremendous impact in the field of healthcare. Moreover, the Internet of Things and ubiquitous computing when applied to the field of healthcare can ease the process by helping doctors better monitor their patients thereby enabling a speedy recovery. This paper proposes three systems to demonstrate the wide array of fields in healthcare and everyday life where Internet of Things can be applied. The first is a system to monitor infants while they sleep to detect crying. Once detected the system swings the cradle and also alerts the parents. The second system aims to help in rehabilitation of patients undergoing corrective knee surgery or other knee related procedures. This is done with the help of accelerometers attached to the joint which interfaces with a microcontroller and constantly monitors the knee movements. The last system aims to help the blind wear the right combination of clothing. This is achieved using image and pattern recognition.

Networks that allow digital devices to connect and transmit data are covering the world fast. Thanks to the networks, it is possible to connect all mobile devices, electronic sensors, electronic measuring devices, medical devices and sensors. They track, share, evaluate, and in some cases automatically adjust the data that is collected and transmitted. The concept of "Internet of Things" is complex and has several levels: end devices (sensors, actuators), transport layer (telecommunications environment, including wired and wireless networks) and the level of data processing (collection, storage and processing). The market environment creates requirements for young professionals, and competition between higher education institutions and vocational education institutions provides an opportunity to train a highly qualified specialist who can study and create modern hardware and software for smart electronic devices and systems that are nodes of the Internet of Things network. The article deals with issues related to the peculiarities of creating simple devices within the concept of the Internet of Things based on the popular Wi-Fi module ESP8266 and the introduction of this research into the educational process. The technical possibilities, features of connection and interaction of the ESP8266 module for meteorological monitoring are revealed. The organization of the module's access to the Internet, data sending and their monitoring using the popular mobile applications Blynk, Virtuino and the cloud IoT service ThingSpeak is shown. Their work in non-commercial tasks and ease of use for educational institutions are analyzed.
