Reverse engineering in IOT and CPS using a BLE RGB LED lamp as an example

Abstract

The objectives of this thesis project are to study industrial revolutions, to foresee further turns of industrial revolution, to suggest necessary skills for that and apply these skills into practice. These objectives were achieved by researching the history of industrial revolutions, following the news of the modern history and inducting current trends to the logical conclusions and applying scientific techniques into practice. As a result was discovered an exponential growth of complexity in technologies both on industrial fields and in everyday tasks. The current technological trend is Cybernation. However, cyber-physical objects are often closed for third-party applications. It may decrease the demand on Cyber Physical Systems. By chance, this challenge can be eliminated by means of reverse engineering. Its methods were studied and applied into practice in this project. Consequently, a light-control application was made. Its main advantage to the original program in the code, which is open source and can be used for new solutions.
