How IoT Will Transform Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
The pharmaceutical industry heavily involves research and development, manufacturing, testing, and quality control. Unfortunately, although these operations sound like they should be using cutting-edge technology, they’re simply not. Many pharmaceutical companies are using manufacturing processes that are decades old and out of date. These processes are a perfect fit for the Internet of Things (IoT), […]
What IIoT Can Do For You
The Internet of Things (IoT) is expanding into helping smaller businesses improve their efficiency and productivity. But there is an Industrial Revolution happening, called Industry 4.0, that’s bringing more connectivity to manufacturers and industrial companies. As more businesses adopt robust IoT applications in their operations, we’ll see a shift in how IIoT is viewed and […]
How to Take IoT Data from Problem Solution to Business Model
Most companies have become increasingly data-minded in the past decade. But they often report that they’re sitting on a huge pile of data. With various departments having differing workflows and tools creating disparate data located across isolated systems, in Excel files, in databases, and even on paper, it’s not hard to see how this could […]
Why IoT’s Crucial for Medical Connectivity During the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the world in unprecedented ways: social distancing, mandatory mask rules, and a shift to remote work name just a few. Technological innovation is accelerating faster too as a result. Tools like the cloud, the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI) are swiftly improving many fields that were otherwise […]
How the Internet of Things Is Helping Us Deal With COVID-19
If you ever imagined what a world-threatening crisis would look like, you probably thought it would involve nuclear bombs, global warming, or maybe even aliens. But it turns out that a virus strain never before encountered can turn the world upside down, halting business operations and the global economy for months. This year is going […]
What’s the Industrial Internet of Things?
(Part 2)
Internet of Things (IoT) applications are so encompassing that they work in the background where we can’t see them, using devices that many of us already own, like smartwatches and smart home appliances. But industrial IoT (IIoT) is a different breed of technology that will truly be all-encompassing: It will track materials from the source […]
What’s the Industrial Internet of Things?
(Part 1)
The Internet of Things (IoT) is growing at an unprecedented rate. But it turns out that this is just the beginning; experts predict the technology will grow even faster once it reaches its full potential in the industrial and manufacturing fields. In industrial IoT (IIoT), smart sensors, actuators, devices, and people make up the IoT […]
Why Data Analytics Are Essential for the Internet of Things
The Internet of Things (IoT) generates a gargantuan amount of data on a daily basis. According to Cisco, 5 quintillion bytes of data are produced every day by this technology. That’s a whole lot of zeros! This makes sense when you think about it. After all, data is the lifeblood of IoT. By pushing, pulling, […]
How to Streamline Your Internet of Things Data Management
The Internet of Things (IoT) is growing rapidly. Many organizations are racing to leverage the advantages this technology brings to their sectors. According to a study from Boston-based technology research firm IDC, IoT spend will reach almost $750 billion globally this year, which is an increase of 15% from 2018. Another report by IDC shows that […]
What Does the Smart Home of the Near Future Look Like?
The Internet of Things (IoT) is revamping numerous industries. Soon, it will also redefine how we live. In just ten years, many of our homes will be transformed by IoT development. Combined with artificial intelligence (AI), IoT will allow our homes to learn about their inhabitants and anticipate their needs. Machines will lend a hand […]
