Introduction to IoT
"THE
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a network of physical devices connected to the Internet (or other data network), capable of collecting and exchanging data. These devices range from everyday household items like smart thermostats and security cameras to more complex industry machines, vehicles and appliances. The core concept of IoT is the ability of devices to communicate with each other (Machine to Machine or M2M communication), and provide business users with greater levels of control enabling automation, improved efficiency, and data-driven decision-making.
