The growth of the Internet, and the volume of connected devices, has seen the Internet of Things (IoT) successfully disrupt the daily lives of South Africans to the point that even the non-technology inclined have started to buy into the convenience, the comfort and the value offered by this vast and expanding segment.

What is the future of IoT?

Today, we live in a connected world where machines, infrastructure and the internet are converged into one easy-to-manage IP solution. The truth is IoT will continue to grow in importance, both for industrial and home use. From connected home hubs, smart lighting, remote-controlled valves and all the various app-controlled appliances, chances are IoT will eventually find its way into all of our lives.

In the early days of IoT, much of the focus centred around industrial applications, such as improving operations with autonomous machinery. Lately, much of the focus has shifted towards the home and office, and we are beginning to see a more human-centred approach starting to emerge. IoT has become more about personal augmentation and improving living services for South African users. When MiRO started its search for effective IoT partners, they discovered Aqara: A leading smart home and IoT solutions provider, offering a diverse set of home automation products ranging from sensors to switches, curtain controllers, and air quality monitors, all managed from intelligent Aqara hubs.
