As the Internet of Things continues to evolve, it's important to stay on top of the latest IoT trends in 2024.
5G networks will drive the growth of IoT. The most anticipated IoT trend in 2024 is the development of 5G networks. With faster data upload and download speeds, lower latency and reliability, 5G networks will impact the IoT and enable a new generation of IoT applications that require real-time data transfer with minimal latency.
AI will enable intelligent IoT systems with more efficient and effective applications, including predictive maintenance and fault detection, energy management and automation.
Edge computing will improve IoT performance. Edge computing in IoT aims to process data close to its source rather than in a remote centralized cloud. This approach will reduce latency, improve the reliability and security of IoT systems.
Blockchain will improve IoT security. Blockchain integration in 2024 is another key trend to watch. Blockchain's ability to store and transfer data in a secure, decentralized manner will be invaluable as the number of IoT devices grows and more sensitive data is processed.
Emergence of smart cities. Cities around the world are investing in IoT technologies to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and improve the quality of life for their citizens. IoT in urban development will monitor and manage everything from traffic to energy consumption and waste management.
