8. The real meaning of the IoT (for users)
Internet Things
It’s just a way to use things (the real world) to connect to
the internet (processes, machines, people, networks, ...)
It’s the next logical step on the path of digital evolution.
Nothing more. Nothing less.

Our personal network (powered by people & intelligent machines) is
