Internet of Things is not a new thing, we have been doing this for centuries. An example is time. Time (in simplest terms) represent the state of the Earth giving its position in the solar system.
The time evolved from observation (sundial), measurement, use of electricity and use of the Internet (Apple watch) and created use huge device business, caused the industrial revolution and advanced the civilization.
Given the advancement in the technology, IoT can bring hundreds if not thousands of state information on the Earth to the people and businesses. This would cause the next industrial revolution and potentially advances the civilization in short time. This makes IoT either a threat or a cash cow for businesses.
This presentation is my keynote at the Keysight Technologies KMI 2015.
