Answers and Descriptions:

  1. Answer: An Arduino board can be used in an IoT application by connecting it to a Wi-Fi module and programming it to send/receive data over the internet.
    Description: For example, an Arduino with an ESP8266 module can control devices like lights remotely by receiving commands from a smartphone app.

  2. Answer: Sensors in MDS and IoT applications collect environmental data (e.g., light, temperature) to trigger actions or send data for processing.
    Description: In MDS, sensors control local outputs (e.g., LEDs); in IoT, they send data to the cloud for remote monitoring or control, like temperature in smart homes.

  3. Answer: A Wi-Fi module enables an MDS to connect to the internet, allowing remote control and data exchange in IoT applications.
    Description: The module (e.g., ESP8266) adds wireless connectivity, transforming a local MDS project into an IoT system accessible via apps or servers.

  4. Answer: A smart home system uses an Arduino (MDS) with a temperature sensor to monitor room temperature and an IoT setup to send data to a smartphone, allowing remote fan control.
    Description: The Arduino reads sensor data, and a Wi-Fi module sends it to a cloud server, enabling users to monitor/control the fan via an app.

  5. Answer: Challenges include ensuring stable internet connectivity, securing data transmission, and handling power supply limitations for the MDS.
    Description: Unreliable Wi-Fi, cybersecurity risks (e.g., hacking), and battery constraints can affect the performance of an IoT remote switch system.
