Global Internet of Things Market 2016-2020

About the Internet of Things (IoT) Market

IoT is a network of physical devices, sensors, and machines integrated into everyday objects connected through the Internet for effective data communications. IoT creates smart communication environments, such as smart healthcare. IoT enhances operational efficiency by increasing the speed of communications compared to the existing infrastructure, thus improving business productivity in any industrial setup. It focuses on improving the process capabilities by enabling real-time business decisions with data storage and computing capacity at the basic sensor level. We expect that IoT will likely have a positive impact on industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, retail, energy and utilities, transportation and logistics, and ICT.
