IoT Statistics for 2020

IoT is now regarded as the next big thing. Industry experts have started calling it the Industrial Revolution 4.0. IoT statistics reports are showing how tech-innovations will have a critical role in the organization of economy, healthcare, marketing, banking & finance, as well as government. IoT is going to usher in advanced degrees of automatization, customization, and connectivity.

 

Highlights for IoT Statistics:

 

  • There are 127 new IoT devices connecting to the Internet every second.
  • Consumer electronics will account for 63% of all installed IoT units in 2020.
  • By 2020, the number of IoT devices in homes will rise to 12.86 billion.
  • 23% of current large-scale IoT projects are smart cities.
  • 40% of IoT devices will be used in the healthcare industry by 2020.

 

Internet of Things is still in an inchoate state and is very complex to define. However, it can be said that IoT is a system of interconnected computing devices with distinctive identifiers and send data over a network without human intervention. Unlike the Internet of people, the IoT requires no safeguarding or human contribution. According to experts applications of the “Internet devices” are unlimited and are going to change our society, phenomenally. Read Data Science, ML/AI & Data Analytics during COVID-19 Phase.

 

Gartner’s IoT penetration statistics say, there will be nearly 25 billion IoT devices in the entire world. On the other hand, Intel’s report predicts more than 200 billion things connected to the Internet. The price of developing the IoT is still high and varies greatly from one sector to another, primarily depending on the purpose of the device. A complex home automation system can be priced at $5 million, while a multifaceted healthcare IoT device, like that of a pacemaker can cost nearly $300,000. That said, constant advancement and increasing competition, is likely to bring down the costs of new IoT devices.

 

Benefits of the IoT

 

Connectivity – IoT permits devices to stay connected to a central terminal and helps us check the connected devices from our phone.

 

Efficiency – It also allows instant access to information, which in turn frees up time and resources which can be dedicated to more important engagements.

 

Ease – IoT connected devices are basically computers sending data in real-time, i.e. our fridge can keep an eye on its contents and send us an alert if we’re out of provisions.

 

Wellness – IoT connected devices are handy in keeping an eye on health conditions and can be of assistance in the prevention of ailments.

 

Personalization – The more we use our smart devices, the more they will be able to predict our tastes and preferences in years to come.
