Q

three security problems that these suffered from were:

  • Hard coded and unchangeable passwords
  • No encryption
  • Firmware that could be fooled into receiving fake updates

one possible explanation for this is that these devices were rushed into the new market and extra security would have impacted there performance. especially in the case of encryption that requires a lot of processing

Q

within the context of control techniques describe a

closed loop

A

this decribes a system where a controller can provide input and create an output

the cntroller can then use that output as its input

example

a thermostat turning on a boiler (INPUT) to heat a room (OUTPUT) and then reading the room tempearture(INPUT) to decide if the boiler should stay on

Q

describe the

robosphere

A

this takes inspiration from the biosphere and describes all the components that a robot may interact with

example

an amazon robots robosphere would include:

  • an A.I system
  • its on board computers
  • the local database
  • robot-human interaction

Q

name 3 ways

an autonomous vehicle in a smart city might carry out its processing

A

three ways these might carry out processing are

  • On board processing
    • for time critical or simple local processing
  • Roadside nodes (edge processing)
    • for more complex processing or processing that requires unknown data to the vehicle such as an overtake
  • Cloud server
    • for the most complex processing, such as finding the best route

Q

describe

edge computing

A

this can be described as computing that is carried out close by to an IoT device and on behalf of the IoT device

example

  • a plane engine receiving data from the engine sensors and then carrying out processing in order to then provide the pilot data
  • a roadside node that can carry out processing for an autonomous car (such as orchestrating a manouvre for a car to overtake since the node may have more data and more capabilities)

Q

this can be described as a controller that can provide input and cause an output

such as a thermostat turning on a boiler to produce an output of heat

however the controller does not then receive any input from that output

such as a light being turned on but no light sensor to tell a controller that such output has occurred

A

within the context of control techniques describe an
