The world of IoT
The Internet-of-Things (IoT) is now a mainstream technology. Its use has increased over the past couple of years to many applications especially in the household as well as some businesses. It is being used to automate tasks, deliver instantaneous information about various devices, for example heaters and lights.
The advent of consumer A.I means that the uses of IoT will increase more over time. It may be time to add IoT devices to your portfolio of products or add IoT functionality to your existing products.
IoT Applications & Use Cases:
IoT encompasses a variety of technologies, products, systems and processes that can and make the collection of data and interface with them effortless and accessible.
Some use cases include:
- Remote monitoring and control of industrial equipment and sensors (Industrial IoT)
- Smart home appliances
- Agriculture – smart farming practices (e.g. Temperature and humidity monitoring)

IoT Product Development Roadmap:
- Just like with any other development process, (see: Hardware development and software development)
- Extra steps are added here for the development of the following:
- A User Interface (UI) – Web or App
- Backend system to deal with the data generated
