Motivation for creating an IOT (Internet of Things)

Automation

Many daily life tasks can be automated with IOT by embedding computing devices in everyday objects as the physical objects are connected and can be controlled digitally with an added benefit of remote infrastructure.

Reducing manual work

There will be a less requirement of manual work as most of the tasks will be automated.

Collection of Data for Data Science

Everyday devices produce a large amount of data. With an IOT infrastructure, this data can be collected efficiently and utilized for Data Science problems to efficiently gain insights and make informed decisions.

Communication

The devices can communicate effectively with each other thus increasing transparency and quality.

Monitoring

The items in the home or office can be monitored for quality as well as quantity by setting a threshold so it will inform you when a certain item is below threshold thus improving your lifestyle.
