Internet of Things (IoT)
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a network of interconnected physical devices that communicate and exchange data with each other over the internet. These devices, which can range from everyday household items like refrigerators and thermostats to industrial machinery, are equipped with sensors, software, and other technologies that enable them to collect and share data. The IoT allows for greater automation, real-time monitoring, and remote control of devices, leading to improved efficiency, convenience, and innovation across various sectors such as healthcare, agriculture, transportation, and smart homes. By enabling devices to connect and communicate, the IoT creates opportunities for enhanced data analytics, predictive maintenance, and better decision-making processes, transforming how we interact with technology and the world around us.
