What is the Internet of Things?

[bellal khan]

It is a term that refers to the connection of physical objects , such as electronic devices, sensors and actuators, via the Internet , enabling the collection, transmission and analysis of data.

These objects can be integrated into complex, interconnected systems, creating intelligent networks of devices and applications that can be used to improve efficiency, safety and quality of life .

IoT is revolutionizing several sectors, including waste management, logistics, agriculture, healthcare, and energy.

An example of a solution that is exploiting this technology is the cambodia telegram data one created by the Greek startup Recytrust , which includes a sort of cutting-edge scale capable of notifying when it is best to empty a bin.

At the same time, it has a tracking system to identify users who throw waste into that container and monitor their recycling performance.

The mobile application, among other things, allows the use of a unique code that allows you to track the origin of recyclables and have certified proof of the circularity process they have undergone.

Which, as mentioned at the beginning, is an important factor in ensuring the re-entry of quality products into the market.

What should be highlighted, however, is that the automatic separation of waste alone , guaranteeing separate collection everywhere and minimising waste, would have a decisive impact on the environment.

Ishitva Robotics Systems , for example, is an Indian startup that offers a smart bin that, in addition to having a full-size sensor for the garbage, automatically separates dry waste such as paper, plastics and cans.

The platform connected to the bin then analyses the waste and generates reports on the types and quantities of waste collected and the time spent collecting in each area.

The opportunities generated by such technologies are estimated to be around $700 billion a year in material savings .
