The Internet of Things or “IOT” for short has a mixed meaning. Generally the term is used to define all things internet. One definition defines IOT as the networking of physical devices including sensors and “connected devices” or “smart devices”. The role of IOT is growing in consumers’ everyday lives and Connecticut now has consultants and experts to help companies large and small navigate the IOT scene.
In 2013 the Global Standards Initiative on Internet of Things (IoT-GSI) defined the IoT as “the infrastructure of the information society.”
This definition opens IOT to a very broad spectrum of devices, uses and platforms including smart TVs, smart cars, device powered homes, smart grids and smart cities. IOT is transforming the landscape of just about every industry from car manufacturing to home manufacturing.
From software development consulting related to product connectivity and hardware development specifically designed to be connected and controlled remotely or from the Internet; IOT is complex. But the efficiency that it brings can bring about a return on investment that may be worth it to most processes.
