How has IOT changed the world that we live in?
Internet of Things has transformed this world and there is no doubt about that. The world is now faster, more connected and easier to work in. The whole world is now a global village and the good thing about IoT is that it keeps on growing. There is still much more to come.
Internet of Things has made our lives better in many ways. It has changed the way we live, and we communicate with each other. Let’s take a brief look on how the world has changed after the introduction of Internet of Things.
  1. Healthcare is now better and easier
Internet of Things has had some major effects in medicine and healthcare. Since it allows for massive data collection and data analysis it has made diagnosis a lot easier and more accurate for doctors. As the doctors can now fetch a lot of information from the cloud at any given time, they can now better analyze and link the information of a patient with each other to come up with a perfect result.
It has also reduced the workload of nurses by making the record keeping easier and faster. Improvements in healthcare are one of the biggest achievements of Internet of Things.
  1. We are now more connected than ever before
Internet of Things is based on cloud computing and cloud computing says that everything should be connected. Everything that is on the cloud is connected with each other and we have never been on the cloud more than today. All our smart phones, our smart gadgets everything is now connected to the cloud. We connect to a person sitting on the opposite side of the world in a matter of seconds and this is only because everyone is on the cloud now. Our all devices are connected to each other, sitting in office, we can see what is happening at our home through the smart home assistances or we can track the location of our car from our phone anywhere. We have never been connected more.
  1. It has made driving easier
We all know about the smart cars and how great they are. They make driving experience a lot more secure and comfortable. Real time GPS while travelling, detecting the road for any bumps, detecting traffic jam in advance, everything has made travelling and driving a lot easier than it has ever been. Driverless cars are still under construction but very soon they will be introduced in the market. Internet of Things has changed the way we drive, and it is much better.
  1. There are now increased privacy concerns
Well with some benefits, there are also some security concerns. Hackers always find a way to get into the system and destroy parts of it. Of course, the privacy and security concerns have increased with everything being on the cloud and since this cloud has also some breaches the hackers find a way to get their hands on the private and personal information of people. However everyday better security measures are being developed and employed to avoid any such experiences.
  1. The type of leisure time has changed
This is again a very important change that IoT has brought to this world. With the advent of social media and how huge internet has become, the way humans spend their leisure time has also changed. It is now more being on the phone or Netflix then actually going out and talking to people or playing some outdoor games. Online communication has taken over the actual face to face communication. But of course, there are some good sides and some bad sides to this argument also. While it connects us to people from some other part of the world it might disconnect us with the people sitting right beside us.
Internet of Things has evolved the world and changed the way humans live. It has some weakness and some benefits. We are now living in a smart world and it keeps on evolving with every passing day.
