    Abstract: Each of a plurality of Internet of Things (IoT) devices includes at least one sensor. At least some of the plurality of IoT devices may have a single, low power, state. At least some of the plurality of IoT devices may have a first, low-power, low-bandwidth, “STANDBY” state and a second, high-power, high-bandwidth, “ACTIVE” state. Controller circuitry, that may include sensor abstraction circuitry and/or analytics circuitry receives a signal from a first IoT device, analyzes the signal and determines whether to transition a second IoT device from the STANDBY state to the ACTIVE state. The controller circuitry beneficially minimizes power consumption and bandwidth requirements for the second IoT device. The controller circuitry also determines at least one of: an event context or an environmental context.
