Abstract
An Internet of Things device is herein disclosed. The Internet of Things device comprises a communications module having circuitry to communicatively connect to a computer network, a memory operable to store data, a processor coupled to the memory and the communications module and operable to execute instructions stored in the memory, and an activity module, including at least one of a sensor and a control device. The activity module operates under control of the processor to perform a designated activity with at least one of the sensor and the control device. The activity module further communicates on the computer network via the communications module. The processor curtails a volume of communication of the communications module on the computer network if a measured value of a system parameter exceeds a threshold value.
