What Is IoT ( Internet of Things ) :

The internet of things, or IoT, is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects that are provided with unique identifiers (UIDs) and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. The IoT is the network of physical devices , vehicles , home appliances, and the other items embedded with electronics , software , sensors , actuators and connectivity which enables these things to connect , collect and exchange data , creating opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world.

The Internet of Things (IoT), also sometimes referred as Internet of Everything (IoE), consists of all the web-enabled devices that collect, send and act on data they acquire from their surrounding environments using embedded sensors, processors and communication hardware. Building on top of the Internet of things, the web of things is an architecture for the application layer of the Internet of things looking at the convergence of data from IoT devices into Web applications to create innovative use-cases.The IoT device will typically be connected to an IP network to the global Internet. Commercial IoT, where local communication is typically either Bluetooth or Ethernet (wired or wireless). The IoT device will typically communicate only with local devices.
