Abstract
The Internet of things is a system presently used by maximum applications in various sectors of business government and
many other applications. The IoT is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded
with electronics, software, sensors, actuators and connectivity which enables these things to connect and exchange data. The
term “Thing” in “Internet of Things” is used quite broadly. For example, a thing within the IoT could be a person with a heart
monitor implant, a pet with a biochip transponder, a vehicle that has built-in sensors to alert the driver when tire pressure is
low — or any other natural or man-made object that an IP address can be assigned to, thus gaining the ability to transfer data
over a network. As a result, it is becoming increasingly easy to create opportunities to directly integrate the physical world into
computer-based systems which results in improvements, efficiency, economic benefits and reduced human exertion.

Helps in saving electricity
Adjusts brightness of the light according to the crowd.
Healthcare
Highly boosted sector due to IOT
Used for recording temperatures, electrocardiogram, etc
One such major application is Medication Dispensing
Machine
Agricultural Sector
Has been proved efficient for the farmers
Provides information to the farmers about crop yields,
rainfall
and soil nutrition.
The device used in this sector is phenonet.
Problems in Iot
Following are some of the concerns of the IOT
Security concerns
Communication amongst devices
Should work as one entire system
Updates should be automatic
People should be made aware
Unnecessary services should be disabled
Conclusion
The IOT is the technology of future and it will create lot of
applications useful to the spciety and reduce the efforts of
the human beings. Although IoT seems like an extremely
attractive concept in theory, we need to consider ways to
improve upon the technology in order to ensure the safety of
data and privacy. A glaring hole concerning IoT is the fact
that there is not a comprehensive means of managing all of
an individual’s IoT devices. If on the other hand, we are
able to fix those issues, it will certainly be interesting to
witness how exactly people’s behavior would change. In
future this technology will be widely used for various
applications in business and social/
