Abstract

Nowadays, the number of connected IoT devices grows to nearly 12.5 billion globally. IoT devices contain sensors, actuators, and mini processors that self-report in realtime, can be used in home automation, medical and healthcare, transportation, manufacturing, agriculture and more. Assessing reliability for this type of devices is problematicdue tothe computing reliability indicators, failure rate, mean time between failure and the need of a huge amount of informationabout the device and its components (operating parameters, environment, quality, etc.). This paper presents a method toassess an IoT Parkinson’s patient spoon with respect to reliability. With these indicators determined, it is easy to createa more dependable product by experimenting with alternative solutions and scheduling maintenance procedures.
