Internet of Things (IoT)

Internet of Things (IoT) refers to technical connectivity of all physical devices and platforms through internet, enable them to exchange data, sometime in real-time. The aspect includes everyt objects from machines, vehicles, smart phones, wearable devices, home appliances and more including humans!

IoT concept define the way for devices having sensors to exchange data via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, iBeacon, Bluetooth LE, NFC, RFID and more. IoT applications usually work as a bridge between devices, enabling physical devices and their application within to communicate with each other.

What are the benefits of the Internet of Things for business?

Many of clients ask “What Can I do with Internet Of Things and How does my business benefits?”, Well,  the benefits of the IoT for businesses depend on their industry and the the particular solution. If you can use the data collected by the products you sell or through the services you offer, then you it provide greater ability to collect and analyze the data for the purpose of advancing your products and streamlining your processes. Examples of how your business in Toronto and nibouring areas can benefit form IoT includes:

Internet Of Things evolution

In 1999 Kevin Ashton a technology pioneer at the MIT coined the term “Internet Of Things”. What helped the IoT was among other things the adoption of passive RFID tags, the increasing availability of broadband internet and cellular wireless networking and finally the adoption of IPv6 protocol which provided enough IP addresses for every device the world.
