FIT (Future Internet of Things) aims to develop an experimental facility, a federated and competitive infrastructure with international visibility and a broad panel of customers. It provides this facility with a set of complementary components that enable experimentation on innovative services for academic and industrial users. The project gives french internet stakeholders a means to experiment on mobile wireless communications at the network and application layers thereby accelerating the design of advanced networking technologies for the future internet. FIT was one of 52 winning projects from the first wave of the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research’s "Équipements d’Excellence" (Equipex) research grant program, in 2011.
One component of the FIT platform is the sets of IoT-LAB testbeds (voir le site IoT-LAB ). These were motivated by the observation that the world is moving towards an “Internet of Things”, in which most communication over networks will be between objects rather than people.
The Infine team is now managing the FIT IoT-LAB site currently at Rocquencourt whose development has been started in 2010 (in the Hipercom team).
