Things (IoT)

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network of physical devices—like appliances, wearables, and vehicles—that connect to the internet to share data and work smarter. These devices collect information, such as temperature, location, or usage patterns, and use that data to improve functionality, efficiency, or user experience. For example, a smart thermostat learns your schedule to optimize heating and cooling, saving energy. IoT enhances automation and decision-making across homes, industries, and cities, making systems more responsive and interconnected through technology.
