Writing in Forbes, Jacob
Morgan regards IoT as a concept of basically connecting any device with an on
and off switch to the Internet. This includes everything from cell phones,
coffee makers, washing machines, headphones, lamps, wearable devices and almost

Intelligence is intelligence exhibited or shown by machines. Many tech companies
are aggressively investing in the development of AI which is set to become the
next big thing. A good example of AI when
Google’s artificially intelligent Go-playing computer system defeated

finishing the best-of-five series with four wins and one loss. This interesting
but the more AI become part of our daily lives, the more robots take over human
jobs. But be assured that AI is something to look forward to this year.
Dimensional
printing for everyone

printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), refers to processes used
to synthesise a three-dimensional object in which successive layers of material
are formed under computer control to create an object. Although AI has been
around for years, the price of 3D printing is very expensive. But according to
projections, the price is expected to become pocket-friendly.
Cybersecurity

With Russia and United
States at going for each other's jugular when it comes to hacking,
cybersecurity will no doubt be a major concern for every country this year.
More measures will be announced to combat hacking as nations shore up their
cybersecurity. In addition to this is industrial espionage.
Innovative
wearables
Wearables are gadgets that
can be worn on our body as an implant or accessory. This year, it is expected
that there will be more innovative and amazing wearables produced.
