Abstract:

The development of the Internet of things should be guided by the public goods and regard social benefits as its first target, and then considers the application of its business model and financial benefits. The earlier research on this field seems too commercialized. The integrated application has been fragmented into small blocks by business model, and as a result, the more market orientation and less government public benefit orientation have objectively obstructed its development in depth and breadth. This paper puts forward the basic construction of the Internet of things with the characteristics of public goods and its application can replace the massive spending by government in the related field. Early in the application and promotion, the government’s force should be greater than that of the market. At the same time, the public free of charge, low-cost and hidden profit model have also been discussed. Finally, from the view of social macro benefit, this paper emphasizes the significance of the application on improving the people’s livelihood and increasing happiness index.

Key words: Internet of things, public goods, public free of charge, people&rsquo, s livelihood happiness
