This paper discusses a new concept of control systems, characterized as the Internet of Things Control Systems (IoTCS), which is based on the control techniques of networked control systems and the concept of the Internet of Things. To obtain IoTCS, the Internet of Things hardware, which belongs to embedded systems and boards hardware class, is used. The example of temperature control shows how the concept of IoTCS can be practically realized with the selected Internet of Things hardware. The operation of the implemented IoTCS is based on the principle of a networked control system in which the Arduino Uno board is equivalent to a communication network. Temperature control is enabled by a PID controller designed in Simulink, which shows that software packages traditionally used for the synthesis and analysis of control systems can be effectively used for the synthesis and analysis of control systems based on the Internet of Things hardware.
