System, Apparatus, and Method for Implementing One or More Internet of Things (IOT) Capable Devices Embedded Within a Roadway Structure for Performing Various Tasks

A system, comprising:

• one or more first Internet of Things (“IoT”)-capable devices of a plurality of IoT-capable devices, the one or more first IoT-capable devices being embedded within a roadway structure of a roadway, each first IoT-capable device comprising:
• one or more first sensors;
• a first transceiver;
• at least one first processor;
• a first non-transitory computer readable medium communicatively coupled to the at least one first processor, the first non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon computer software comprising a first set of instructions that, when executed by the at least one first processor, causes the IoT-capable device to:
• receive at least one first sensor data from the one or more first sensors;
• and
• send the at least one first sensor data to a computing system via machine-to-machine communications, via the first transceiver.

An apparatus, comprising:
