📖 Your Story

You are a smart city engineer assigned to Varanasi's Smart City Project. Your mission is to transform everyday devices and infrastructure into an interconnected IoT ecosystem — from smart homes on the ghats to sensor-equipped bridges and tunnels. Navigate the virtual lab to connect devices, configure sensors, and build a Web of Things that makes Varanasi safer, smarter, and more efficient.

What You'll Learn

  • Define Internet of Things (IoT) and explain how it differs from traditional computer networks
  • Identify the role of sensors (accelerometer, gyroscope, smart sensors) in IoT systems
  • Distinguish between IoT and Web of Things (WoT) and explain the advantage of WoT
  • Describe how IoT and sensors enable smart city applications

How to Play

1Explore the virtual lab environment showing a map of Varanasi with IoT-ready devices and infrastructure.
2Use the device connector to add smart devices to the network and observe how they communicate.
3Configure sensors on the sensor panel and watch how they respond to environmental inputs.
4Answer questions at each stage to progress from connecting a smart home to building a full smart city network.
