Internet of Things

 DETAILED CONTENTS

The internet of things, or IoT, is a network of interconnected computing devices, mechanical and digital machinery, items, animals, and people with unique identities (UIDs) and the capacity to transfer data without needing human-to-human or human-to-computer contact.
