IoT : Lifeline of data-driven world
IoT in Homes
A home IoT system will control lighting, climate, entertainment systems, and appliances. It may also include home security such as access control and alarm system.
IoT in Hospitals
Many hospitals and healthcare facilities are connecting to Internet of Things (IoT) devices to enhance security, safety, operational efficiency and the patient and resident experience.
IoT in Hotels
IoT comes into picture in hotels because the guest wants to interact with its hotel world in the same way it interacts with the world at home. IoT is changing the way product are delivered
IoT in Malls
A connected ecosystem within a mall can bring the snapshot of the styles and designs available across outlets in a mall at the finger-tips of the shoppers thus makes an ease.
What is Internet of Things?
The Internet of Things is the extension of internet connectivity into physical devices and everyday objects. Embedded with electronics, internet connectivity and other forms of hardware, these devices can communicate and interact with others over the internet and they can be remotely monitored and controlled. The 'thing' in IoT could be a person with a heart monitor or an automobile with built-in-sensors. The embedded technology in objects helps them to interact with internal states or the external environment which in turn affects the decisions taken.
Why IoT?
If we had computers that knew everything there was to know about things- using data they gathered without any help from us – we would be able to track and count everything and greatly reduce waste, loss and cost. We would knew when things needed replacing, repairing and whether they were fresh or past their best. We need to empower computers with their own means of gathering information, so they can see, hear and smell the world for themselves. This is precisely what IoT platform does for us. It enables devices/objects to observe, identify and understand a situation without being dependent on human help.
What is scope of IoT?
Internet of Things can connect devices embedded in various systems to the internet. When devices can represent themselves digitally, they can be controlled from anywhere. The connectivity then helps us capture more data from more places, ensuring more ways of increasing efficiency and improving safety and IoT security. IoT is transformational force that can help companies improve performance through IoT analytics and IoT Security to deliver better results. Business in the utilities, oil & gas , insurance, manufacturing, transportation and retail sectors can reap the benefits of IoT making more informed decisions , aided by the torrent of interactional and transactional data at their disposal.
