The Internet of Things (IoT) is a concept where various devices and objects can connect and communicate with each other through the internet.

This technology enables everyday devices—such as refrigerators, lights, and security systems—to collect and exchange data, providing convenience and efficiency in daily life.

With IoT, we can remotely control devices, monitor environmental conditions, and gather information that can be used for better decision-making.

Examples of IoT applications include smart homes, where home automation systems can adjust temperature and lighting based on user preferences, and in industries, where sensors can monitor machine performance to improve productivity.

As this technology continues to evolve, IoT is expected to bring significant innovations across various sectors, including healthcare, transportation, and agriculture.
