IBM Skills Academy Course Internet of Things [IoT]

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the growing range of connected devices that send data across the Internet. 
 
The IoT is now a reality due to the convergence of several technologies.
A “Thing” is any object or device with embedded electronics that can transfer data over a network – without any human interaction. So, imagine if you had smart devices in your car, your workplace or even on yourself. 
 
The IoT can help transform industries leveraging cutting-edge technologies such as cloud, artificial intelligence, and blockchain, using information gathered in real-time by thousands of sensors globally.
