The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators and connectivity which enable these things to connect and exchange data with each other and the internet. These IoT devices and systems create opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world into computer-based systems, resulting in efficiency improvements, economic benefits, and reduced human exertions.
IoT involves extending internet connectivity beyond standard devices, such as desktops, laptops, smartphones and tablets, to any range of traditionally dumb, or non-internet-enabled, physical devices and everyday objects. With embedded technology, these devices can communicate and interact over the internet, and can be remotely monitored and controlled.
