    The Internet of Things (IoT) connects physical objects through sensors and software that allow them to exchange data over the Internet. IoT devices range widely from ordinary household appliances to sophisticated industrial tools, with over 7 billion connected devices currently in use. Experts expect this number to grow substantially by 2025. IoT is transforming a variety of industries by enabling new applications that improve operations through real-time data collection and analysis. Industries like automotive, transportation/logistics, healthcare, and public sectors benefit from IoT applications that increase efficiency, safety, and customer service.

    What is IoT?

    The Internet of Things (IoT) describes the network of physical objects—“things”—


    that are embedded with sensors, software, and other technologies for the
    purpose of connecting and exchanging data with other devices and systems over
    the internet. These devices range from ordinary household objects to
    sophisticated industrial tools. With more than 7 billion connected IoT devices
    today, experts are expecting this number to grow by 2025.

    IOT CHANGING THE WORLD


    You may have heard on many occasions that this technology will change the
    world forever. And if you’re old enough, you’ll have seen that on some occasions
    in form of automation.
    Today, the Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most popular technologies. With a
    promising future that looks closer than other “trendy” technologies, such as
    robotics or nanotechnology, some people dare, once again, to launch the same
    statement: IoT will change the world.

    Benefit from IoT?


    Organizations best suited for IoT are those that would benefit from using sensor
    devices in their business processes.

    Automotive

    The automotive industry stands to realize significant advantages from the use of
    IoT applications. Applying IoT to production lines, sensors can detect equipment
    failure in vehicles already on the road and can alert the driver with details and
    recommendations. Automotive manufacturers and suppliers can learn more
    about how to keep cars running and car owners informed.

    Transportation and Logistics


    Transportation and logistical systems benefit from a variety of IoT applications.
    Fleets of cars, trucks, ships, and trains that carry inventory can be rerouted based
    on weather conditions, vehicle availability, or driver availability, thanks to IoT
    sensor data. The food and beverage, flower, and pharmaceutical industries often
    carry temperature-sensitive inventory that would benefit greatly from IoT
    monitoring applications that send alerts when temperatures rise or fall to a level
    that threatens the product.
    Public Sector

    The benefits of IoT in the public sector and other service-related environments
    are similarly wide-ranging. For example, government-owned utilities can use IoT-
    based applications to notify their users of mass outages and even of smaller
    interruptions of water, power, or sewer services. IoT applications can collect data
    concerning the scope of an outage and deploy resources to help utilities recover
    from outages with greater speed.

    Healthcare

    IoT asset monitoring provides multiple benefits to the healthcare industry.


    Doctors, nurses, and orderlies often need to know the exact location of patient-
    assistance assets such as wheelchairs. When a hospital’s wheelchairs are
    equipped with IoT sensors, they can be tracked from the IoT asset-monitoring
    application so that anyone looking for one can quickly find the nearest available
    wheelchair. Many hospital assets can be tracked this way to ensure proper usage
    as well as financial accounting for the physical assets in each department.

    General Safety Across All Industries

    In addition to tracking physical assets, IoT can be used to improve worker safety.
    Employees in hazardous environments such as mines, oil and gas fields, and
    chemical and power plants, for example, need to know about the occurrence of a
    hazardous event that might affect them. When they are connected to IoT sensor–
    based applications, they can be notified of accidents or rescued from them as
    swiftly as possible. IoT applications are also used for wearables that can monitor
    human health and environmental conditions. Not only do these types of
    applications help people better understand their own health, they also permit
    physicians to monitor patients remotely.
