Internet of things is a network of objects mainly supported by electronic devices and electronic components such as sensors and electronic cards. These objects can be physical and virtual devices, sensors or actuators, are autonomous and have their own intelligence characteristics. On the other hand, smart environments are those in which sensors and actuators have been integrated, to react to events and to adapt to those present. The environment acquires intelligence through its intelligent components, or through the intelligence resulting from its interaction with other components. Our contribution is a proposal of Cognitive IoT (CIoT) devices structure by adding an agent layer to the device. Such layer provides the device with agent characteristics (intelligence, autonomy, cooperation and organization).
