13.1 Introduction
13.1.1 The Use of IoT During COVID-19
Internet of Things (IoT) is the method of linking intelligent (i.e., internetconnected) devices to the internet and rendering them unobtrusive. On the floor, IoT is a general-purpose computing network where several different types of computers interact with each other and exchange data via a universal programming language.
The information is gathered and then exchanged with other devices to improve user satisfaction. Here, we explore how IoT has had on everyone’s daily lives, the advantages of IoT [1–7], and how it works inside the IoT network.
IoT has been part of our daily routine. ...
