IoT podcast with Srinivas Muktevi from Honeywell

The buzz about Internet of things is gaining attention each day and the ones talking about it claim that it’s potential is not limited to how we live but also affects how we execute day to day tasks at our workplace.
Despite IoT being the talk of the town, there is still a lot of confusion about what exactly it is and how it impacts us and our work lives.

In general terminology, IoT is simply an increase in machine to machine communication by means of physical connectivity of devices embedded with wifi capabilities and sensors. The immediate impact can be experienced with the wide availability of the internet, decreasing costs and the penetration of smartphones. This is not all, the potential of the domain is wider than a layman can see, it extends from coffee machines to fitness trackers to jet planes and can be experienced in all walks of life, simple or complex.

We at HackerEarth took up a task to clear the haze around the topic and help the community understand IoT better. We conducted a podcast about IoT and how it impacts us. We had Mr. Srinivas Muktevi from Honeywell with us to talk to us about it. He provided an insight into the vast field and also told us how Honeywell plans to work on it. Below are the excerpts from the podcast:
