The “Internet of Things” is more than just a buzzworthy phrase—it’s fast becoming a ubiquitous reality. With the ever-expanding range of connected homes, cars, and wearables, businesses must meet the challenge of staying competitive by offering not only a new service but a completely new experience as well.
