“Things,” in the IoT sense, refers to a wide variety of devices such as heat sensors, bio chip transponders on farm animals, air quality sensors, automobiles with built-in sensors, DNA analysis devices for environmental/food/pathogen monitoring etc. These devices collect useful data with the help of various existing technologies and transmit the data among other devices.

Internet of Things can connect devices embedded in various systems to the internet. When devices/objects can represent themselves digitally, then they can be controlled from anywhere. The connectivity ensures more ways of increasing efficiency and improving safety and IoT security.
