This means we can not only interact with the devices in our vicinity but work in harmony with the internet and devices around to give efficient daily results. Though it sounds great but it actually require a lot of technologies working together like sensors, processors, interactive hardware, artificial intelligence for replying back and many others.

With the advancement in the field of technology and the pace of development incorporating these IoT devices will make you feel what future feels like.The major application of IoT are :-

1.Smart Home

IoT has being more usefully installed in the devices in a common room. Starting from fingerprint doors to lights and also with devices like Google Home and Alexa. The interactive refrigerators, providing reminders to our smartphones to the bathroom fixtures installed with radio and showers using IR are all an example of Iot in the new age of life.
