Effect of IoT Devices on Animals
Abstract
IOT devices are often in the vicinity of animals. IOT devices on animals are used for experimentation and monitoring purposes. This chapter discusses the effect of different radiations emitted from IoT devices on animals. The specific animals in focus are rats, mice and chickens. There are different short-range and long-range frequency-based radiations emitted from IoT devices. The current literature discusses the experiments conducted on these animals and the duration of exposure to radiation. The literature review provides evidence regarding their effect on different classes of animals. These effects also depend upon the type of animal and the duration of exposure to radiations. The rats showed memory, blood, brain, cell loss, learning related effects. The mouse or mice showed reduced calcium absorption, memory loss, behavioral, anxiety-related,carcinogens-related changes. The chickens showed effect on neurons and blood-brain integrity changes. There were also studies which did not point to any drastic changes in these animals.
