It’s been a decade since “connected” objects—commonly referred to as “the internet of things” (IoT)— reached broad audiences. Connected toothbrushes, sensors embedded in sneakers, and smart watches have started to change consumer behavior through a data-driven, gamified approach. Technology has rapidly evolved to handle large data volumes at high velocities and big data analytics. AI has become more democratized.
