One connection creates another connection. 18 Years back, when just 4 per cent of the world’s total population was available online, the term Internet of Things was coined. Today, 49 per cent of the world’s population is not only available online but is interconnected online and it can be estimated that worldwide, there are approximately 8.4 billion things connected to each other through the internet. This very concept of inter-connectivity through the Internet of things, is the reason that results to the fact that the value of a connected life is comparatively very stronger for a large number of people as compared to the people willing to stay disconnected.
What is Internet of things?
Internet of things, often referred to as IoT, is an ecosystem of interconnected physical devices, accessible through the internet. In the term IoT, the ‘thing’ can be anything ranging from a person monitoring his health through some health-monitoring device to a car integrated with some built-in sensors. Basically, anything that has got an IP address and has the ability for data transmission over a network in the absence of any manual intervention is the ‘thing’ mentioned in IoT. The technologies embedded in these devices assist them in interacting with the other device or any physical thing.
IoT is blooming. Every moment the expansion in the number of interconnected things almost remains unnoticed by the public- actuators, sensors and many other articles that support in the completion of different behind the scene day-to-day operational business tasks. Most of them are abetted by machine-to-machine computation i.e. communication enhanced by artificial intelligence.
Interconnected devices in the world of IoT
One of the most interesting things about IoT is that it has nothing to do about things. It can be simply referred to as a developing technological marvel. As per the estimations, globally 50 to 100 billion devices will be interconnected through the internet by the year 2020. At the core of the innovation behind the concept of IoT unfolding across all the geographies, connectivity between people is most visible as compared to industrial and technological boundaries. Human beings are lying at the centre, using the applications and services being enabled by the technologically advanced devices and their integration provided the objects in the Internet of things. The technologists round the globe are working since years in order to build huge networking infrastructure to serve the purpose of expansion of pervasive connectivity worldwide. As a result, more and more people are getting connected through connectivity between devices and henceforth the lives of people are improving globally.
