IoT, or the Internet of Things, refers to the network of physical objects or “things” embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies that enable them to connect and exchange data with other devices and systems over the internet. This concept encompasses a vast array of devices including everyday household items, industrial machinery, vehicles, and wearable technology. The goal of IoT is to create smarter environments by enabling seamless communication between devices, allowing for increased automation, improved efficiency, and enhanced data collection for analysis. IoT technology is widely applied in various sectors including healthcare, agriculture, smart cities, and transportation, transforming how data is used and facilitating real-time decision-making.
