In this post, let us see what is IOT, Internet of things –
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers (UIDs) and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction (Definition from Wiki)
This has been the trending word and the technology which is driving the automation of many activities.
A simple video of what is IOT will help us to understand what it can do and how we are connected to IOT in our daily lives.
A 3 min video from Think academy by IDM is given below.
We may think that as everything is automated and stored in servers, the data is prone to hacking and mishandling. Of course, the consequences are unimaginable if the same happens but there comes the need of having a decentralized technology to store all this information and its nothing but blockchain which will address these security issues.
Hope you got good Idea on IOT…!!
