IoT Definition and Industries Growth prospects
The Internet of Things (IoT, sometimes Internet of Everything) is the network of physical objects or "things" embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and connectivity to enable objects to exchange data with the manufacturer, operator and/or other connected devices based on the infrastructure of International Telecommunication Union's Global Standards Initiative.
The Internet of Things allows objects to be sensed and controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure, creating opportunities for more direct integration between the physical world and computer-based
systems, and resulting in improved efficiency, accuracy and economic benefit.
Each IOT is uniquely identifiable through its embedded computing system but is able to interoperate within the existing Internet infrastructure.
Typically, IoT is expected to offer advanced connectivity of devices, systems, and services that goes beyond machine-to-machine communications (M2M) and covers a variety of protocols, domains, and applications. The interconnection of these embedded devices (including smart objects), is expected to usher in automation in nearly all fields, while also enabling advanced applications like a Smart Grid, and expanding to the areas such as Smart city.
Gartner Says the Internet of Things Installed Base Will Grow to 26 Billion Units By 2020

IoT Growth Predictions
Where is the IOT opportunity?
Factories – Operations management, predictive maintenance Cities – Public safety and health, traffic control, resource management Health – fitness monitors, Monitoring and managing illness, improving wellness Retail – self checkout, layout optimization, smart customer relationship
management Outside – Logistics, routing, autonomous vehicles, navigation Work sites – operations management, equipment maintenance, health and
safety Vehicles – condition based maintenance, reduced insurance Homes – energy management, safety and security, chore automation Offices – organizational re-design and worker monitoring, augmented reality for
training

Conclusion
The internet of things will take humans to close to an automated, robotic world - But no need not worry
Allows humans to focus on larger projects than e.g. turning on a light
Benefits: Granular access to infrastructure Improved Interoperability Improved manageability
