The internet of things describes the objects and various technologies connecting the digital and physical worlds. For example, a fitness tracker to help you stay physically active or a house with a smart thermostat. Physical objects have in them<ul><li>sensors which can monitor things like temperature, motion or any change in  the environment</li><li>actuators which receive signals from sensors and then act in response to those changes.</li></ul>These actuators communicate via wired or wireless networks with computing systems that monitor or manage connected objects and machines.

The Internet of Things (IoT)

By 2030, the potential value of IoT could amount to up to $12.5 trillion globally. The potential economic value of IoT differs based on settings and usages. For example, factory settings and human health applications represent just over a quarter of the total value potential. IoT's value can also be explored with use-case clusters. The most common use cases account for a large share of IoTs potential economic value:<ul><li>Operations optimization (41%)</li><li>health (15%)</li><li>human productivity (15 %)</li><li>condition-based maintenance (12 %)</li></ul>

The economic impact of IoT

Factors that can accelerate the adoption of IoT solutions:<ol><li>The perceived value proposition</li><li>Affordable technology</li><li>Networks, which create the backbone of IoT</li></ol> Factors that could constrain adoption.<ol><li>The need for change management</li><li>Interoperability issues</li><li>Installation challenges</li><li>Concerns about cybersecurity and individual privacy</li></ol>

Dynamics that could affect IoT adoption

IoT's constant connectivity and data and analytics supply new opportunities for companies to innovate products and services. Broadly, IoT applications occur in one of nine settings:<ul><li>Human health. Devices are attached to or inserted inside the human body.</li><li>Home, including voice assistants, automated vacuums, or security systems. </li><li>Retail environments such as self-checkout, extending in-store offers, or optimizing inventory.</li><li>Offices, including energy management or building security.</li><li>Standardized production environments.</li><li>Custom production environments</li><li>Vehicles</li><li>Cities</li><li>Outdoor settings</li></ul>

IoTs provide new opportunities

To get value from IoT, it is helpful to have a platform create and manage applications, run analytics and store and secure your data.  If you are trying to choose an IoT platform, you’ll need a good understanding of your company’s IoT strategy. When evaluating IoT platforms, consider these characteristics:<ol><li>Applications environment. Can the platform maintain multiple applications?</li><li>Data management. Can the platform structure and join various unfamiliar data sets?</li><li>Ownership of cloud infrastructure.</li><li>Security. </li><li>Edge processing and control. Can the platform do edge analytics without human intervention?</li></ol>

IoT platforms

IIoT is among the advanced manufacturing technologies collectively referred to as <a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/featured-insights/mckinsey-explainers/what-are-industry-4-0-the-fourth-industrial-revolution-and-4ir">Industry 4.0</a>, or the Fourth Industrial Revolution.IIoT can:<ul><li>Drastically reduce downtime</li><li>Open up new business models</li><li>Improve customer experience</li><li>Make organizations more resilient</li></ul>

Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)

Companies must embrace the technology at scale to see the benefits of IoT.Seven actions for scaling IoT:<ol><li>Decide who owns IoT in the organization</li><li>Design for scale from the start</li><li>Deploy multiple use cases</li><li>Invest in technical talent</li><li>Change the entire organization, not just the IT function</li><li>Drive for interoperability</li><li>Proactively shape your environment by building and controlling IoT ecosystems</li></ol>
