Non-Device Industries that are Going to be Ruled by IoT



Not so long ago, you thought that if you could tell your house to play you a song or your fridge to check up on the groceries and make you a list — you must be a Jetson — or some other science fiction person. To those of us who still remember the invention of the mobile phone — we can quite clearly see how  The Internet of Things (IoT) has permeated almost every core of our society.
A Brief List of Reasons Why IoT can Rule Many Non-Device Industries
It no longer takes a giant imagination to see how many non-device industries are going to be ruled by IoT — and maybe IoT can completely take it over .
Real Estate Is Getting Smarter
Millennials have just started home hunting , and judging by the fact that they’re willing to pay five percent above the average price so they could have a smart home, this certainly sparks interest.
When you think about it, it’s quite expected. Smart home features go beyond thermostat. There are smart lights, smart security cameras, automatic garage openers, motion alarm detectors, and plenty of other gadgets and systems that make our lives easier.
Essentially, real estate is about “location, location, location,” bathrooms, kitchens, and good insulation. Nevertheless, the IoT is changing the real estate market. When high-tech Generation Z is old enough to look for homes , we’ll probably witness an even greater change .

For instance, for a private dentistry office to work, one has to keep track of all the available doctors, and quickly find the best time for the client. The front office deals with the cancellations and notifies the doctor so they can be on time. All patients can be kept track of — like patients records and insurance — whose canceled a couple of times in a row — tired yet?
Well, now all of that hard work is done by software, or an application, or some other automated system . Naturally, there is a person still there, but you needn’t pay them a fortune as they don’t possess specialized skills. No longer does your professional success rely heavily on an individual — now success is on the best software, bot, and personal assistant.
Publishing Prospects
Publishing prospects are not just e-books, online self-publishing, though it is very much connected to them. What the internet of things has brought us above all is incredible access to information and impatience. With wireless, you can do research on almost everything.
In former days you had to read through a whole article in order to answer one single question , such as “What is the percentage of freelancers in...
