IoT (Internet of Things) devices

Devices that are connected to the internet and can gather, exchange, and act on data are known as IoT (Internet of Things) devices. These gadgets are made to cooperate in order to carry out a particular task or set of duties. They can gather, process, and transfer data thanks to a variety of sensors, processors, and communication interfaces.

IoT devices include, for instance:

• Smart house appliances including lighting, thermostats, and security cameras
• Smartwatches and fitness trackers are examples of wearable technology.
• Smart appliances including stoves, refrigerators, and washing machines.
• Manufacturing facilities’ sensors and actuators for industrial automation.
• Vehicle and cargo container GPS tracking systems are examples of transportation technology.

Using several communication protocols like WiFi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and cellular networks, IoT devices can connect with one another and with other systems, such as cloud-based servers. This makes it possible to build intricate systems with plenty of connections that can carry out operations like data collecting, analysis, and control.

By making common objects smarter and more connected, the Internet of Things (IoT) technology is predicted to fundamentally alter how we live and work. This will open up new possibilities for the automation and optimization of various processes as well as the creation of new services and business models.
