Internet of things IOT
The Internet of things, IoT, is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators
, and network connectivity which enables these objects to connect and exchange data.
The IoT allows objects to be sensed or controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure, creating opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world into computer-based systems
, and resulting in improved efficiency, accuracy and economic benefit in addition to reduced human intervention.
proprietary process
A proprietary process is a manufacturing process that others are forbidden to use, and a proprietary trademark is a name that only the owner can use.
Each thing is uniquely identifiable through its embedded computing system but is able to inter-operate within the existing Internet infrastructure.
Experts estimate that the IoT will consist of about 30 billion objects by 2020.It is also estimated that the global market value of IoT will reach $7.1 trillion by 2020.

DNA analysis devices for environmental/food/pathogen monitoring, or field operation devices that assist firefighters in search and rescue operations.
Legal scholars suggest regarding "things" as an "inextricable mixture of hardware, software, data and service".
These devices collect useful data with the help of various existing technologies and then autonomously flow the data between other devices.
The term "the Internet of things" was coined by Kevin Ashton of Procter & Gamble, later MIT's Auto-ID Center, in 1999.
"Things," in the IoT sense, can refer to a wide variety of devices such as heart monitoring implants, biochip transponders on farm animals,
cameras streaming live feeds of wild animals in coastal waters, automobiles with built-in sensors,
When IoT is augmented with sensors and actuators, the technology becomes an instance of the more general class of cyber-physical systems,
which also encompasses technologies such as smart grids, virtual power plants, smart homes, intelligent transportation and smart cities.
