What is IoT In Defense? How big is the IoT in Defense Industry?
IoT technology is known as the Internet of Things. It refers to the use of advanced technological tools such as software, sensors, and communication devices to connect several systems capable of exchanging information and data through the internet. IoT is driven by concepts of computer science engineering, communication technology, and electronics, as these components form the main pillar of using IoT in several end-user applications, including the growing defense sector.
The changing national security needs of developing and developed countries have created a need for integrating sophisticated and functional technologies to maintain and optimally use defense equipment. IoT in defense allows countries to undertake intelligent warfare by facilitating modern battle operations that are a result of the efficient integration of human knowledge and technological capabilities of IoT devices. Physical objects used by defense units are embedded with sensors and other equipment that allow each object to communicate with other defense objects. Some of the most commonly collected and exchanged data consist of heart rate, fingerprints, face, and facial expression.
