7 Uses of Internet of Things
Health: Intel has introduced an integrated software platform, the Health Application
Platform (HAP), to facilitate the process of collecting medical data for sending to
monitoring physicians or relevant hospitals. This allows the data to be analyzed,
leading to a diagnosis or medical follow-up service without the need for the patient
to leave home. As for individuals with heart conditions, the AliveCor service can be
used to detect irregular heartbeats.
Smart Home: It is the development of homes capable of performing various smart
tasks using sensors. For example, some existing applications can make the room
lighting turn on if you enter it or speak a specific word. There are also homes where
devices communicate based on commands set by the manufacturer.
