    The Internet of Things (IoT) is a smart system where devices like computers, machines,
                     and even people and animals can be connected to the Internet. These devices have a special
                     ID and can share information without needing people to control them directly.

                     A “thing” over the Internet of Things (IoT) may be a person with a heart monitor implant,
                     an animal with a biochip transponder, an automobile with built-in sensors that alert the
                     driver about the environment or vehicle information. It can also be any object that has an

                     Internet Protocol (IP) address and can transfer information over a network.
                     How IoT works?

                     The Internet of Things (IoT) consists of many web-enabled devices, such as microprocessors,
                     sensors, LEDs,  and ICs.  These  devices collect  information  from their surroundings  and

                     store it in  memory. Mechanical devices are also connected to these systems to perform
                     certain actions based on the instructions received. IoT works using smart technology and
                     makes use of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

                     The  Internet  of Things helps  us live  in  a smarter  way.  IoT enables systems  to work
                     automatically, which helps save time and energy. It also provides real-time analysis.

                     Following are the examples of Internet of Things (IoT) Technology:

                     1.   Operation of an automatic home system, operation of doors by smart gadgets, and
                          handling electrical equipment via a smartphone.
                     2.   Automatic Collection of weather Information.
