Internet of Things

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network of physical objects, devices, sensors, and software that connect to the internet, allowing them to collect and exchange data. These devices can range from everyday household items like refrigerators and thermostats to industrial machines and infrastructure systems. The essence of IoT lies in enabling these objects to communicate with each other and with users, often through cloud computing. This interconnectivity facilitates automation, remote monitoring, and smart decision-making, enhancing efficiency and convenience in various settings, such as homes, industries, and cities. IoT typically involves the use of embedded technology to gather and process data, enabling smarter environments and interactions.
