But what he\u2019s done, smartly, is he\u2019s married data (the internet, basically) with his suit (his \u2018devices\u2019). This helps him have complete control over his suit. And sometimes, he doesn\u2019t even need to be there to control it.<br \/>\nIt\u2019s also how the Internet of Things works. Scratch that, it\u2019s EXACTLY how the Internet of Things works.<br \/>\nSimply put, IoT takes internet connectivity to devices that were traditionally <em>dumb<\/em> or non-internet enabled. Embedded with such technology, they become <em>smart<\/em> \u2013 they communicate and interact over the internet and can be remotely monitored and controlled.<br \/>\nLet\u2019s check out a few examples \u2013<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Consumer devices: Think of smart TVs, smart speakers, toys, wearables, smart appliances\u2026 you get the gist. People can turn on lights in their houses with their voices. They can control air-conditioning through their smartphone so that it\u2019s nice and cool by the time they get home. Think of Legrand\u2019s Arteor range of smart switches, Wi-fi switches, and sound-activated switches. Even in the city you live in, you have smart meters, commercial security systems (CCTVs) and technology used to monitor the weather.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.legrand.co.in\/smart-spaces\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Sept_Blog_Sub-Connected-Devices_01a.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"744\" height=\"295\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/preproductiondemo.com\/devsetup-legrand.co.in\/smart-spaces\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Sept_Blog_Sub-Connected-Devices_01a.jpg 744w, https:\/\/preproductiondemo.com\/devsetup-legrand.co.in\/smart-spaces\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Sept_Blog_Sub-Connected-Devices_01a-300x119.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 744px) 100vw, 744px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Enterprise\/office devices: Imagine a situation where a conference room is fitted with smart sensors, so employees know exactly which room to schedule for a meeting. Once the employees enter the room, the air conditioning adjusts itself based on the number of people in the room, and the lights will dim accordingly as a presentation appears on the screen.
