The technology that connects physical devices to the internet for smart capabilities is known as IoT (Internet of Things). IoT enables everyday objects to communicate and exchange data over the internet, transforming them into "smart" devices. Examples include smart thermostats, wearables, and connected appliances. By integrating sensors and connectivity, IoT devices can collect and share data, allowing for remote monitoring and control, automation of tasks, and enhanced efficiency, thus revolutionizing various industries and enhancing user convenience.
