Although the article has highlighted all the
major areas of IoT benefits, there is much more
to learn. Every day a new innovation related to
internet of things comes on the stage bringing
new concepts that can be beneficial to people in
the near future. While we are still now aware of
the large-scale adoption of the IoT in
healthcare, one can not deny its popularity on
the other industries such as education, fashion,
travelling, communication, and more. Lets see if
it goes on successfully in improving the quality
of lives. What is Internet of Things?

• Internet of things can be termed as inter-network
  connection of physical devices or connected
  devices such as buildings, vehicles, and more.
  These devices are embedded with software,
  electronics, sensors, network connectivity, and
  actuators that help them to collect and transmit
  data. Simply said, IOT can also be said as the
  infrastructure of the information society.
  Internet of things allow the objects to be
  controlled or sensed by remote across existing
  network infrastructure. This also create
  opportunities for direct integration of the world
  into computer-based technical systems to improve
  efficiency, economic benefit, and accuracy.
• These days internet of things has also changed
  the face of healthcare by redefining the way
  devices, apps, and people interact with each
  other. Starting from personal fitness,
  implantable devices, and wellness sensors to
  surgical robots, IoT has come up with new and
  efficient tools that result in an integrated
  healthcare. It provides better patient care,
  reduces healthcare cost, and improves treatment
  outcomes. IoT offers large opportunities for
  hospitals to promote wellness through automated
  workflow and process excellence.
• Advantage of IoT to Healthcare
• Reduced Costs Connected healthcare solutions
  allow doctors to monitor patients on a real-time
  basis. This reduces unnecessary physician visits.
  Also, advanced homecare facilities prevents
  hospital stays.
• Improved Treatment Outcomes Connected Health
  provide access to real-time information that
  allows evidence-based treatments resulting in
  data-driven and informed decisions.

• Real-time Disease Management diseases can be
  cured easily before they worsen with continuous
  patient monitoring and real-time data access.
• Minimizes Errors Automated workflows,
  data-driven decisions and actions, and accurate
  data collection reduces errors and system costs.
• Improved Patient Experience Connected Health
  focuses on patient centricity. Procreative
  treatments, better accuracy in diagnosis, timely
  doctor intervention, lead to efficient care.
• Internet of things has played a transformation
  role in healthcare. However, it is important for
  any organization to prepare themselves to manage
  digital disruption and integrate it with the
  overall care environment in order to build
  combined healthcare ecosystem
• IoT Wearables That has Changed the Face of Human
  Health Care
• IoT has a significant impact on the medical
  field. In recent years, IoT has delivered modern
  and fully functional applications which were
  believed to be a concept in the past. Lets talk
  about some IoT wearables that have changed the
  face of healthcare starting from diagnostics to
  monitoring.
• Augmented Reality for Medical Inspection

• A rise in digital technology has significant
  efforts on medical industry operations. In last
  five years, digitization of healthcare industry
  has induced integrity and modernity in
  traditional medical procedures. On the other hand
  patients have lost regular contact with doctors.
  Augmented reality app helps to overcome this
  problem. The app helps in improving connections
  between patients and doctors. Doctors can treat
  patients virtually. A real life environment is
  created with the help of smart glasses that helps
  to transmit digital information. The app is
  conceptual in nature, although, the research work
  is in progress. It is believed that in years to
  come the app will change the face of medical
  industry. The app will reinvent the core of
  meeting the doctors regularly by bringing the
  gone solidarity in the digital medical industry.
• Ingestible Sensors

• Hearables
• Hearables are generally the devices for deaf,
  however the role id not confined to that much. It
  helps in exposing biometric data and fitness
  metrics with the help of ear buds. The
  application can also track vitals including heart
  rate, blood pressure, and other internal factors.
  According to an independent survey, these days a
  large percentage of youngsters are suffering from
  partial and complete deafness. Hearables helps
  avoid ear-related issues by simply obstructing or
  amplifying sounds.

• Smart Glasses
• Smart Glass is a nursing technology like
  artificial intelligence, influential in
  clarifying vision. It has a headset that is
  mounted on the lens and an HD camera that
  transfers a real-time image on the LED screen.
  The other headset device makes it easy for the
  user to magnify the image and see an ideal
  picture. An audio instruction is also given
  according to the pitcher that is reflected on the
  LED screen. This also helps to direct the user
  and prevent all the possible obstacles. Although,
  curing visual disability is one of the key
  applications of these applications, research is
  being done to accelerate cure of Alzheimers
  disease.

• Moodables
• Researchers say that moodables will be humans
  best friend in the years to come. These devices
  will help in providing relaxation to people
  having stress disorders and ADD. Moodables can
  study the brain waves and transmit low intensity
  currents to the brain accordingly. This device
  can be beneficial on both healthy and stressed
  brain. The device will also be beneficial to
  study human brains and elevation of mood swings.
  Although the idea is still under development, it
  has brought a huge steer.
