IoT - "The Internet of Things: Challenges and Issues of an Internet connected world"

The Internet of Things, also termed as IoT, is nothing but everyday devices connected to Internet. These devices hold the capability of doing tasks with or without human interaction. Devices like doorbells, home lighting system, toys, water heaters, air conditioners or any device in our day to day life can be a part of this connected system. These connected devices help in making our life easier. For example, lights at home activate automatically when your phone recognizes, that you are close to home. IoT devices can be used for multiple purposes but they are most commonly used in daily automation devices. These devices function by collecting data from sensors and then either store the data locally or send the data to the cloud via the internet or process the data and internally send commands to other devices for further action.
