IOT (Internet Of Things)

• Connectivity:
  IoT connects a wide range of devices to the internet, allowing them to communicate and share data. 
  
• Data Collection and Exchange:
  Devices are equipped with sensors that collect data about their surroundings or their own status, and this data can be transmitted to other devices or systems for analysis and action. 
  
• Automation and Efficiency:
  IoT enables automation and increased efficiency by allowing devices to interact with each other and with users based on collected data and pre-defined rules. 
  
• Examples:
  IoT encompasses a wide variety of applications, including smart homes (e.g., smart thermostats, lighting, appliances), wearable devices (e.g., fitness trackers, smartwatches), industrial automation, connected cars, and more. 
  
• Key Components:
  IoT systems typically involve sensors, networks, data processing (often using cloud computing and AI), and user interfaces for interaction. 
  
• Growing Ecosystem:
  The number of IoT devices is rapidly increasing, with predictions estimating billions of devices connected by 2025 and beyond.
