The Internet of Things (IoT) constitutes a network of interconnected physical devices communicating via the internet, spanning from everyday items to industrial machinery. Its primary objective is to gather and disseminate data for informed decision-making and automation across sectors like smart homes, healthcare, and agriculture. Coined by Kevin Ashton in 1999, IoT’s expansion is fueled by advancements in communication technology. Challenges include security and interoperability, while opportunities arise from the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and edge computing. IoT applications extend into various aspects of daily life, impacting healthcare, smart homes, industrial processes, and transportation. The IoT landscape introduces diverse programming languages and career opportunities, facing challenges in security and standardization but promising continuous technological innovation.
