IoT is the short form of Internet of Things. It is the name of the technology that enables sensors to perform a specific task of measuring a certain unit and potentially respond to input and create a response through other connected mechanisms. With over 50 billion devices expected to be connected to the internet by 2020, what would follow after 2020 would be a huge spike in the deployment of IoT devices across our personal and work lives.

In this 1.5 hrs session, we will explore concepts and most importantly a hands-on experience using an IoT device and Oracle IoT cloud. Participants will walk away with the fundamental understanding of IoT devices, how they work and an inquisitive mind to explore and exploit the world of IoT
