The Internet of Things (IoT, Internet of things) is the "Internet of all things connected", which is an extension and expansion of the network based on the Internet, which combines various information sensing devices with the network to form a huge network, realizing the interconnection of people, machines and things at any time and any place.
As machines get smaller, production becomes easier. There has been a recent shift in the philosophy of technology: the industry has shifted from a single device model to a more modular microservices model. A network of devices can replace a device to handle every calculation and every measurement. Each device can also have its own individual utility, and it can benefit the entire network. This is at the heart of IoT technology.
According to Mordor Intelligence, the market value of IoT technology is expected to rise to $1.39 trillion by 2026.
The two major markets for the Internet of Things – wearables and smart homes
Smartwatches, earbuds, and Extended Reality (AR/VR) headsets are important wearable IoT devices that will make waves in 2022 and will only continue to evolve.
The future of IoT smartwatches and wristbands
In the past, it was expected that wearable technology, especially smartwatches, would eventually replace smartphones and desktop computing. However, this prediction does not look like it will become a reality anytime soon. The limited viability of wearable devices such as smartwatches makes them less likely to be used for tasks that you can accomplish on your smartphone or laptop.
However, wearable IoT technology has the ability to track patient vital signs, so it has great potential in terms of medical role. These devices can perform tasks such as automatically alerting others in an emergency and collecting continuous health records.
Smart home
The rise of Google Assistants, Amazon Echo, Apple Siri, and other digital assistants has changed the smart home industry. With home IoT technology in 2022 now able to manage countless devices such as lights, appliances, and even home security systems, the technology seems to have reached its peak. However, we will see more room for growth in the coming years. According to Mordor Intelligence, the smart home market will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 25% between now and 2025, bringing the size of the industry to $246 billion.
One of the next steps is to focus on smart home automation. Smart home IoT networks are now expanding their ability to automate tasks such as lighting, temperature control, and security. These can be manually configured by consumers or automatically adjusted using AI algorithms that review sensors and use data.
The continuous maturity of wireless technology plays a vital role in the development of the Internet of Things, and it has become easier and safer to achieve "Internet of Everything and Internet of Things".
