About IoT and M2M,
Essentially, Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine to Machine (M2M) describe the network of physical objects or “things” embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity, which enables these objects to collect and exchange data wirelessly. Driven by several factors including the growth in the availability of Broadband Internet, which reduces the cost of connecting, and the related increase in wireless connectivity capabilities as well as sensors built into a myriad of technologies, this has been described as the “perfect storm” for the IoT. Almost any device with an on and off switch can be connected to the Internet (and/or to each other) – anything from cell phones, coffee makers, washing machines, headphones, lamps, wearable devices, cars, as well as machine components in the engine of a jet airplane or the drill of an oil rig. According to technology market Intelligence-company, ABI Research, by 2020 there will be 40.9 billion connected devices.
