The document discusses the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT refers to connecting physical devices to the internet to exchange data. It allows for things like fans, mirrors, and air conditioners to become smart and connected. The number of connected devices is expected to grow dramatically to 20 billion by 2025. IoT has many applications and future uses including smart homes, cities, transportation, healthcare, retail, energy management, and more. It holds potential to improve efficiency and quality of life.
4. WHAT IS IOT ?
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 enables these objects to connect and exchange
data. Each thing is uniquely identifiable through its embedded computing system
but is able to inter-operate within the existing Internet infrastructure.
6. WHY LEARN IOT ?
A survey conducted by KRC Research in UK, US, Japan and Germany the early
adopters of IOT has revealed which devices are the customers more likely to
use in the coming years
20 billions devices
will be connected
through internet
by 2025.
9. Wearable
devices
are installed
with sensors
and soft wares
which collect
data and
information
about the users. This data is later
pre-processed to extract essential
insights about user.
These devices broadly cover
fitness, health and entertainment
requirements.
IoT holds great potential for quality
control and sustainability.
Applications for tracking goods, real
time information exchange about
inventory among suppliers and
retailers and automated delivery will
increase the supply chain efficiency.
Smartphones will be the way for
retailers to remain connected with
their consumers even out of store.
Interacting through Smartphones
and using Beacon technology can
help retailers serve their consumers
better. They can also track
consumers path through a store.Industrial

10. Smart Grids will also be
able to detect sources
of power outages more
quickly and at
individual
household levels like
near by solar panel,
making possible

system
Research shows IoT in
healthcare will be massive
in coming years. IoT in
healthcare is aimed at
empowering people to live
healthier life by wearing
connected devices.
The collected data will
help in personalized
analysis of an individual’s
health and provide tailor
made strategies to combat
illness.
Farmers are using
meaningful insights
from the data to yield
better return on
investment. Sensing for
soil moisture and
nutrients, controlling
water usage for plant
growth and
determining custom
fertilizer are some
simple uses of IoT.
