Internet of things (IoT) is a network of connected devices that are capable of communicating with each other. After merely emerging as a concept in the early 2000s, IoT has now become an important part of our everyday lives. IoT devices are now everywhere, be that on smartwatches, home assistants, smart lights, and whatnot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The growth of IoT has been such that forecasts suggest there will be 75 billion<\/a> IoT devices in use by 2025, a threefold increase from the number in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IoT also has a crucial role to play in the development of smart cities. As the urban population grows, cities are facing new challenges like preventing environmental degradation, avoiding sanitation problems, migrating traffic congestion, and thwarting urban crime. IoT can create new experiences for city residents and make everyday living more comfortable and secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
