This technology is a new revolution which will help human race to advance further.So basically, there was only internet for us,but now there is internet for devices and hence its name is Internet of Things.so,
What is Internet of Things(IoT)
It is inter-connected computing devices,digital or mechanical devices ,human or any animal or can be any object to which we connect an unique identifier,has the ability to transfer data without any actual interaction with each other through network.The data is collected and shared automatically through networks without any human efforts

Major Fields where we can use IoT
Today,almost all fields or sectors are hugely dependent on data.These data or information not only help them to pin point the shortcomings in their activities but also help them in getting some fresh ideas to implement and improve.Healthcare,management,agriculture,transportation are few of them where the practical application of IoT can be seen.
When it actually came into picture?
The name Internet of Things was actually coined after 1999 but it was being developed from much before,maybe decades ago.
Examples of IoT technology
We are very well known with the BLOCKCHAIN. This technology also uses IoT technology.Apart from that there fleet devices used in vehicles which helps in tracking all the information about the vehicle like its location in real time,its condition etc.There are wrist machines which can help you to track about your pulse rate,heart rate body temperature and so on. There are devices which can also be helpful in tracking condition of your room like its temperature and many other things as well.
Conclusion
Certainly, we have come a long way and the technology has helped us significantly which is advancing in leaps and bounds.The next big thing will be internet of things in coming future.
