What's loT ?? The Internet of Things (loT) is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and connectivity which enables these things to connect and exchange data, creating opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world into computer-based systems, resulting in efficiency improvements, economic benefits, and reduced human exertions.Market worth of loT ?? The number of loT devices increased 31% year- over-year to 8.4 billion in the year 2017 and it is estimated that there will be 30 billion devices by 2020.The global market value of loT is projected to reach $7.1 trillion by 2020.How does it work ?? loT involves extending Internet such as desktops, laptops, smartphones 0. and tablets, to any range of traditionally dumb or non-internet-enabled physical devices and everyday objects. e— Embedded with technology, these devices can communicate and interact ee ‘ ~6 over the Internet, and they can be remotely monitored and controlled.Futurologist !
