Internet of Things (IoT) is defined as a network of interrelated devices, things, animals or people. These are embedded with sensors, software, different networks and technologies, so can transfer and exchange data through internet without human and computer interaction.
IoT is an emerging technology that is used now everywhere from home to industries. Following are some ways that how IoT makes our lives easier:
It seems so good that if we go to home after performing lots of tasks, door will open itself, lights will automatically turned on and our favorite music will start playing. All this has become possible because of IoT.
Home Automation allows us to manage and monitor our home by sitting anywhere in the world. Smart locks for door enhance security of home by only allowing authorize visitors to enter the home. Door can also be unlocked itself, when a person is near to it.
Use of smart security cameras can make sure the security of home even if your or not at home. By using different sensors it can also be detected that if the person visiting home is resident, guest, animals or any other unknown person.
Home appliances like refrigerator, microwave, washing machines, dryer machines and air conditioner can also be automated and handled through IoT. Coffee can be set to make coffee when the morning alarm rings. Thus IoT can help in better and efficient use of resources.

 IoT is also widely used for health care. Because of it doctors can monitor patients in better and easy way. It also speeds up patients’ recovery process. IoT can saves many lives specially of diabetes, asthma and heart patients with real time monitoring environment and timely treatment.
Devices using IoT technology can monitor the heart rate, blood pressure and other health conditions of patients and alert the doctors if any disorder occurs. IoT can also be used for medical research and to secure patients’ and other hospital records.

IoT can also be used in transportation. Vehicle tracking has become possible with IoT which can helps in finding the location of vehicle. Temperature, fuel and load status can be found of vehicle which always keeps the vehicles in good position and can give better services to the passengers.
Knowing arrival time can saves time of people. IoT is used for management of traffic lights and make better and efficient use of them which may reduce traffic issues. IoT can help in tracking driver’s activities and safety of vehicles.
