IEEE 2786-2023

This standard provides the definitions and terminologies, data structure and encoding scheme, reference information model for Internet of Clothing (IoC) system. Architectural framework, protocols, and interface requirements are also defined to help ensure interoperable, agile, and scalable network solutions as well as service delivery that are able to be implemented and maintained in a sustainable manner.

This standard addresses interoperability, scalability, and collaborative operation of IoC system as well as provides framework and requirements that outline technologies and the processes to help ensure agile, reliable, and sustainable solutions for the evolution of IoC. This standard facilitates the development of IoC products and solutions that can be integrated horizontally and leverage current instrumentation and devices used in industry, which provides for flexible IoC networks with reduced cost and complexity.

New IEEE Standard - Active. Definitions, terminologies, and architectural framework of the Internet of Clothing (IoC) system are developed in this standard. Data scheme, information modeling, and key technological requirements are also defined to help ensure interoperable and agile IoC network solutions and service delivery for apparel industry and end-use applications.
