How Technology is Developing the Internet of Things

Austin Winder
We live in a time where technological advancements never stop. No matter which industry or subject you’re looking at, there’s always some sort of advancement that’s solving problems and expanding the capabilities of modern tech.
A great example of this would be the internet of things (IoT), a technology that allows businesses to connect a variety of processes.
Picture the internet of things as a great spider web of web-enabled devices; these devices are all combined through the “web” of this analogy: the internet. Internet access allows these devices to collect and send information, which a business can then control and influence.
Having this much control of how a business operates can have a massive impact on efficiency and profitability in certain industries. Take the manufacturing industry, for example; the internet of things can allow manufacturers to monitor everything about their process and make changes as needed. And all of this starts with processing chips.

IC Chip Technology

IC Chip technology is the most important aspect of IoT technology. These IC chips, or microchips, serve a variety of uses and allow machinery to have online capabilities. The IC fabricates including the resistors, capacitors, and transistors. It can function as either digital or analog. It depends on how you want to use it.

The Pros and Cons of The IC Chip

The Pros

1) It is so small that there is a reduction in power consumption

2) It is more reliable, according to some tech experts. 3) You can replace it much easier than other tech chips.
The Cons

1) You cannot fabricate the coils or indicators.

2) You will only have maybe 10 watts of power. Some consider that a disadvantage. It depends on the user and their intentions.

3) It will reduce the power consumption, yes, However, it will only handle a limited amount of power when you use it.

What Can They Be Used For?

You can use them for a variety of things. Below we will illustrate the main uses.

1) You can use one for radio-frequency. They work with both decoding and encoding.
2) You can use one for memory storage. Once again, you need to be careful with the power supply. It might be smaller, but it works off a limited power supply. You have to factor that in your memory bank. In other words, you will have to use more than one to store higher volumes of information.
3) You can use the IC Chip to increase or decrease the volume with your audio, either on a PC or other tech device.
4) You can use them for radar. However, once again, we need to warn about the power supply. You will need more than one chip if you want to use the radar activity for more than one application.

Three More Tech Advancements You Might Want To Watch For

Intelligence Apps (I-Apps) These are apps specifically written for the mobile user in mind. They deal with machine learning and other AI treats. The app helps with both your business and personal lives. It will help organize things, such as schedules and work-related activities. This option is great for people who are overachievers and Type-A personalities.

Residential Internet of Things (IoT)

The IoT is something that’s largely been used commercially. It’s how things in tech generally work, after all. With that said, the IoT has a lot to offer a home as well. Think of all the electronics you use around the house - appliances, entertainment, even security applications. They can all be connected and managed on one main source like a smartphone.
This tech option can integrate everything from your phone and computer to your tv and household appliances.

Blockchain

This tech advancement is one of the more popular options. Have you ever wondered how the Bitcoin currency platform came into being? Look no further because it is powered by Blockchain.
The Blockchain concept goes way beyond computers. It can tie everything together from real estate development, elections, and official government business. That is how big and powerful this thing is.
