"Internet of Things" technology in Canada

"Internet of Things" technology in Canada

Canadian businesses are expected to embrace the “Internet of Things” (IoT) in the next two years as machine-to-machine technology ramps up. For the uninitiated, the “Internet of Things” is the network of physical objects or “things” embedded with electronics, software, sensors and connectivity. One example is a smart thermostat system that uses Wi-Fi to allow temperature monitoring from a remote location.
Fenwick McKelvey, assistant professor in the Department of Communication Studies, can talk about why Canada is poised for leadership in IoTs.
