36 Path Breaking IoT Applications for 2020: Imagining the World of Future

By 2025, there will be billions of connected devices and millions of IoT applications deployed globally. All of us and everything we use will be generating data in this connected world. Data will lead to insights and insights will lead to decisions. Eventually, we all will be depending on data to make decisions. IoT will change how we look at others and more importantly, at ourselves. Everything will be seen through the lens of the data that is generated. No one can argue that businesses across the world change human lifestyle. If you track human evolution over the last so many centuries, it has always been 'trade', that has forced man to change. Maybe denial to begin with, then reluctance and ultimately acceptance. This century will see a drastic transformation in the world that we all live in. IoT will change the business world and the industries, and with it our lives will change. We may probably not understand the phenomenon but historical comparisons will mark IoT as a world -changing technology. Through this edition, we are trying to bring to you some of the path breaking inventions/ applications in IoT that we believe will change the world. We have researched and covered some path breaking applications in IoT ranging from Smart Homes, Connected Vehicles, Connected Healthcare, Precision Agriculture, Smart Devices & Smart City Applications. The IoT applications and devices covered in this book are just the tip of the iceberg. We are yet to explore the vast potential that is in store for all of us. A world of connected things and smart devices may make the world a better place to live in - at least we can hope and pray The world of tomorrow will definitely be different than the world of today. The sphere of influence is wide today and will increase in the years to come. Let's be ready for a future with connected things. Let's be ready for a world of IoT applications.
