When you hear about the “Internet of Things” you could be forgiven for thinking it is a recent buzzword describing a change in the world of Information Technology over the last year or two, revolutionizing whole industries in the process.

The Internet of Things, short “IoT”, will revolutionise the way we live and work. The Internet of Things will assist us in our everyday tasks. The Internet of Things can help protect the environment. The Internet of Things will help us to predict the future. The Internet of Things seems to be everywhere these days. But what IS this Internet of Things?
