Greetings and welcome to the latest issue of IoT Weekly News!
I've got another fabulous array of articles in technology on the Internet of Things this week. I suggest the article on self-driving cars ( 2nd article in the News section below ) as a great jumping off point to learn all about the buzz that happened this week in the IoT.
There's additionally a number of fun articles on "dealing" with the IoT, how the IoT will transform business, development on BLE and IoT Protocols, another cool Kickstarter and finally, a study on how a number of enterprises are gearing up to deploy IoT solutions in 2016.
I hope you enjoy this issue and please tweet it to your followers!
