IoT in Logistics

The Internet of Things (IoT) in logistics refers to the use of smart devices and sensors connected to the internet to enhance supply chain operations. These devices can track shipments in real-time, monitor temperature and humidity for sensitive goods, and optimize delivery routes. By collecting and analyzing data, companies gain insights that improve efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance customer service. For example, a truck may use IoT sensors to report its location and condition, allowing for better planning and quicker responses to issues, ultimately leading to a more streamlined logistics process.
