Statista predicts that the number of IoT (internet of things) connected devices could skyrocket to over 75 billion by 2025. This means entrepreneurs, educators and learners will further enjoy increased connectivity and improved engagement as relevant information can be put to use more effectively, says Karoline Gore, freelance technology writer. The pandemic impacted everyone’s lives, demanding an […]

The integration of internet of medical things devices in complex healthcare landscape represents a rallying cry for progress. With the ability to revolutionise patient care through enhanced diagnostics, real-time monitoring, streamlined operations and more, these ingenious gadgets and systems hold the promise of dramatically reshaping the healthcare industry. From hypervigilant smart monitors that oversee vital […]
The internet of things (IoT) has indisputably catalysed a paradigm shift in our lifestyles and workplaces. From intelligent climate control systems and surveillance devices to health monitoring gadgets and sophisticated appliances, IoT devices have become seamlessly integrated into our everyday routines. However, this exponential growth of interconnected devices brings along a sinister side a heightened […]
As the number of IoT sensors and applications are growing, the unlicensed sub-GHz bands are starting to get crowded, demanding reliable, scalable technologies that can coexist, says András Gnandt, Wireless Technologies, Silicon Laboratories. The relatively new mioty LPWAN (low power wide area network) wireless technology addresses these requirements with a new PHY (physical layer) and […]
As more commitments are made to the development of smart cities, the transport industry has found many applications for artificial intelligence (AI) to digitise their operations. Unlike other sectors, public transport is vulnerable to human error (leading to 94% of all crashes), changes in government legislation (such as net-zero goals), and economic pressures such as […]
Industrial companies are facing formidable hurdles, both in meeting their operational objectives, and in understanding the vast volumes of data available to them to decide how best they can achieve those goals. For example, 38% of European capital-intensive companies, highlighted in recent research commissioned by AspenTech, say they are balancing global demand for resources with […]
Successfully managing IoT (internet of things)-enabled devices also means being able to successfully scale the underlying hardware and software. This might seem easy, but in reality it’s an extremely complex process. It requires additional servers, a more robust network, and greater security as the number of connected devices increases. Scaling up IoT means companies need […]
The internet of things (IoT) has a market value of $662 billion (€605.73 billion) today. By 2030, it is expected to grow to $3.35 trillion (€3.07 trillion). The seamless, connected experience that IoT devices offer is clearly attractive to consumers, but it also presents an increasingly attractive market that bad actors are only too willing […]
Disruptions to supply chain operations are set to stay for the remainder of 2023 and beyond, be it as a result of geopolitical conflicts, inflationary pressures and the recessionary environment, climate change weather events or other issues yet to emerge. Because of this, research from KPMG has revealed that six in ten global organisations plan […]
The industrial internet of things (IIoT) is gaining traction as manufacturers adopt a more connected and intelligent approach to production. The IIoT involves the use of sensors, devices, and monitors to collect and analyse data in real-time, providing manufacturers with insights into their operations and enabling them to optimise their processes. However, to fully realise […]
