Internet of Things (IoT)
The Internet of Things, or IoT, refers to the billions of physical devices that are now connected to the internet and collecting and sharing data globally. Because of the proliferation of low-cost computer chips and the pervasiveness of wireless networks, it is now possible to transform anything, from a pet collar to an aircraft, into a component of the Internet of Things. Connecting all of these different objects and adding sensors to them gives otherwise dumb devices a level of digital intelligence, allowing them to communicate real-time data without human intervention.
