What is Internet of Things (IoT)?
Before we move ahead on the need for an IoT lab, let first know a bit about this technology. We are living in a world where we are surrounded by a lot of devices and they have become a part of our lives. Whether its a smartphone, computer, printer, TV, music system, air conditioner or a door lock. Everything mentioned is a part of our lives, without which we cannot think a sustainable life. Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that connects all these devices on an internet connection. That means, they have a specific ID and that is connected to an IP of your router connected with an internet connection either provided by your local service provider like Airtel, Jio, Verizon, or with through a hotspot connection. Internet of Things (IoT) in other words is an ecosystem/network of physical devices, automobiles, home appliances, industrial equipment, machines or any other electromechanical device which is embedded with an electromechanical hardware, software, sensors, actuators and a feedback controller mechanism which enable all of these to collect and exchange data over the internet. The invention os this technology has helped us in reduced efforts of data collection, communication and automatic decision making on a certain group of tasks to be performed with a high degree of efficiency & speed.
Why do we need an Internet of Things (IoT) Lab?
The internet of things helps people live and work smarter, as well as gain complete control over their lives. In addition to offering smart devices to automate homes, IoT is essential to business. IoT provides businesses with a real-time look into how their systems really work, delivering insights into everything from the performance of machines to supply chain and logistics operations.
IoT enables companies to automate processes and reduce labor costs. It also cuts down on waste and improves service delivery, making it less expensive to manufacture and deliver goods, as well as offering transparency into customer transactions.
As such, IoT is one of the most important technologies of everyday life, and it will continue to pick up steam as more businesses realize the potential of connected devices to keep them competitive.

IOT lab consists of different INTERNET OF THINGS learning products for teachers & students.
For Teachers, the IOT lab provides teaching aid, a dedicated mobile app, a teacher’s training program, etc.
For Students, the IOT lab provides practice sheets, Science DIY kit, assessment, and 13x 7 support and guidance
Why IOT lab is a Good Choice for you?
The internet of things offers several benefits to organizations. Some benefits are industry-specific, and some are applicable across multiple industries. Some of the common benefits of IoT enable businesses to:
monitor their overall business processes;
improve the customer experience (CX);
save time and money;
enhance employee productivity;
integrate and adapt business models;
make better business decisions; and
generate more revenue.
IoT encourages companies to rethink the ways they approach their businesses and gives them the tools to improve their business strategies.
Generally, IoT is most abundant in manufacturing, transportation and utility organizations, making use of sensors and other IoT devices; however, it has also found use cases for organizations within the agriculture, infrastructure and home automation industries, leading some organizations toward digital transformation.
IoT can benefit farmers in agriculture by making their job easier. Sensors can collect data on rainfall, humidity, temperature and soil content, as well as other factors, that would help automate farming techniques.
The ability to monitor operations surrounding infrastructure is also a factor that IoT can help with. Sensors, for example, could be used to monitor events or changes within structural buildings, bridges and other infrastructure. This brings benefits with it, such as cost saving, saved time, quality-of-life workflow changes and paperless workflow.
A home automation business can utilize IoT to monitor and manipulate mechanical and electrical systems in a building. On a broader scale, smart cities can help citizens reduce waste and energy consumption.
IoT touches every industry, including businesses within healthcare, finance, retail and manufacturing.
How Does IOT Lab Work?
An IoT ecosystem consists of web-enabled smart devices that use embedded systems, such as processors, sensors and communication hardware, to collect, send and act on data they acquire from their environments. IoT devices share the sensor data they collect by connecting to an IoT gateway or other edge device where data is either sent to the cloud to be analyzed or analyzed locally. Sometimes, these devices communicate with other related devices and act on the information they get from one another. The devices do most of the work without human intervention, although people can interact with the devices — for instance, to set them up, give them instructions or access the data.
The connectivity, networking and communication protocols used with these web-enabled devices largely depend on the specific IoT applications deployed.
IoT can also make use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to aid in making data collecting processes easier and more dynamic.
