What are the technologies of the Internet of Things and how to apply them

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of information sensing devices such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), infrared sensors, Global Positioning System (GPS), laser scanners, and other information sensing devices, connecting any object to the Internet according to the agreed protocols for information exchange and communication in order to realize intelligent identification, positioning, tracking, monitoring and management.

The concept of the Internet of Things has been put forward for more than 20 years, but by the countries around the world to pay attention to the two years in 2008 and 2009, countries have launched the Internet of Things-related policies, China has also opened the Internet of Things development milestone year, listed as one of the country's five major emerging strategic industries. After 10 years of development, the Internet of Things is no longer a lofty concept, in the cloud + AI and other technologies, so that the Internet of Things has been widely used, the rapid development of the industry, but also ushered in the golden age of development.

Operators, semiconductor vendors, communications equipment, cloud service providers and application side of the formation of the Internet of Things industry chain, and NB-IoT and LoRa and other LPWA low-power wide-area network communications technology, to solve the Internet of Things large-scale deployment of connectivity and other needs, and then make the Internet of Things in the industry, retail, logistics and transportation and other vertical areas have been widely used.

Driven by the industry chain, the scale of IoT connectivity has grown exponentially, with the compound annual growth rate of LPWAN connectivity at 109%. In addition, Yang Jianyong, senior consultant of IoT, pointed out that the deployment of 5G technology will also bring IoT to a higher level, and make the Internet of Everything possible, in which operators are the active promoter of the Internet of Everything, the global operators have transformed in the era of big connection, no longer limited to be a pipeline provider, hoping to grab the IoT application side of the market, such as industrial, education, medical, automotive networking and intelligent home The company is looking for opportunities in industrial, education, healthcare, automotive and smart home applications.

IoT has a lot of uses in industries such as mobile monitoring, smart wearables, POS, weather, healthcare, and energy, and is an indispensable product for networking devices, with a number of related .top domains being registered.
