Internet of things

The Internet of things (IoT) is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with electronicssoftwaresensorsactuators, and network connectivity which enable these objects to connect and exchange data


The IoT allows objects to be sensed or controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure,creating opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world into computer-based systems, and resulting in improved efficiency, accuracy and economic benefit in addition to reduced human intervention. When IoT is augmented with sensors and actuators, the technology becomes an instance of the more general class of cyber-physical systems, which also encompasses technologies such as smart gridsvirtual power plantssmart homesintelligent transportation and smart cities.
