The Internet of Things or iot

is influencing our lifestyle

from the way we react

to the way we behave.


From air conditioners

that you can control


with your smartphone

to Smart Cars providing


the shortest route

or your Smartwatch

which is tracking
your daily activities.

IoT is a giant network

with connected devices.


These devices gather

and share data about


how they are used

and the environment


in which they are operated.

It's all done using sensors,


sensors are embedded

in every physical device.

It can be your mobile


phone, electrical appliances

Pecos barcode sensors

traffic lights and almost


everything that you come across

in day-to-day life. These sensors


continuously emit data

about the working state


of the devices,

but the important question is

how do they share


this huge amount of data,

And how do we put this data

to our benefit iot


provides a common platform
for all these devices
to dump their data.

And a Common language

for all the devices to


communicate with each other. Data

is emitted from various sensors

and sent to iot

platform security iot platform


integrates the collected data

from various sources

further analytics is
performed on the data

and valuable information


is extracted as per requirement.

Finally.

The result is shared

with other devices for better


user experience Automation

and improving efficiencies.

Let us look at a scenario


where iot is doing wonders.

In an AC manufacturing industry
both the manufacturing machine

and the Belt have


sensors attached they

continuously send data


regarding the machine health

and the production specifics

to the manufacturer
to identify issues beforehand.

A barcode is attached

to each product
before leaving the belt.

It contains the product


code, manufacturer details,

special instructions Etc.


The manufacturer uses
this data to identify

where the product

was distributed and track


the Retailer's inventory hence,

the manufacturer can make


the product running

out of stock available

Next this products


are packed and parcel

to different retailers.

Each retailer has

a barcode reader to track


the products coming

from different manufacturers,


manage inventory, check

special instructions

and many more. The compressor

of air conditioner
has an embedded sensor

that emits data regarding


its health and temperature.

This data is not allies


continuously allowing

the customer care to contact you


for the repair work in time.

This is just one


of the million scenarios.

We have Smart appliances, Smart


Cars, Smart Homes, smart Cities

where iot is redefining


our lifestyle and transforming

the way we interact


with Technologies.

The future of iot industry is

huge. Business Insider


intelligence estimates
that 24 billion iot devices
will be installed by 2020

and ITC predicts

that iot Revenue will reach


around three hundred

and fifty seven billion

in 2019 resulting in a lot


of job opportunities

in the IT industry.

of the iot Revolution, come
