Basics of IoT

IoT is a network of devices or things. These things can be anything – it can be a human wearing a health monitor, a pet wearing a geolocation sensor, a car with a tire pressure sensor, a television with voice/visual capability, or a smart speaker. IoT can also use advanced machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities in the cloud to provide next-level services. IoT can make things smart with data collection and automation. The following diagram illustrates IoT:
