IoT
Connected device network
IoT is an abbreviation for Internet of Things—the network of physical devices embedded with sensors and software that connect to the internet and exchange data.
Smart thermostats, fitness trackers, and connected appliances are IoT devices.
The IoT revolution has transformed home automation.
Usually pronounced as three letters: I-O-T.
