ABOUT IoT
The Internet of Things (IoT), is a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers (UIDs) and the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction.
A ‘thing’ in the IoT can be a person with a heart monitor implant, a farm animal with a biochip transponder, an automobile that has built-in sensors to alert the driver when tyre pressure is low or any other natural or man-made object that can be assigned an Internet Protocol (IP) address and is able to transfer data over a network.
It has been forecast that the global IoT market size will reach US$561.0 billion by 2022, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 26.9% during the forecast period.
Africa may be a developing continent, but it has shown great promise and opportunity in the past decade. The continent is eager to transcend into the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
