The Internet of Things (IoT) describes billions of physical devices connected to the internet, collecting and sharing data. Combined with automated systems, that data can be analysed and acted on without anyone pressing a button.
At home it connects lamps, appliances and wearables. In business it connects machines: a production line that reports its own wear, a pump that flags a fault before it fails.
In farming and aquaculture, IoT sensors watch irrigation, humidity, temperature and water quality around the clock, which is exactly the kind of control that makes controlled-environment farming work in Saudi conditions.
