You might have watched the Inception Movie, it portrayed how difficult it is to make a person believe an idea but when someone does believe that idea it has the power to impact their own life in an unimaginable way.

Same way, companies like travelguru.com, thredup.com, renttherunway.com etc. was founded from ideas which the students came up with while participating in a competition.

As per human psychology, when a person is pushed to limits his mind provokes and opens up the creative cognitive skills paving the way for some amazing ideas.

But the challenge here is to transform the idea into a reality.

Competitions provide you exactly this, where it enhances your creativity, bringing the best out of you and provide you an effective platform to transform the idea into a reality.

What is the importance of IoT?

Internet of Things in short IoT is a trending technological field that converts any electronic device into a smarter one. A lot of industries are beginning to adopt this technology on to their operations to increase their productivity and improve efficiency.

This innovative technology not only connects the device to the internet but also provides the user, various features like real-time analytics, platform to analyze the collected data, cloud data storage, trigger an action from a remote location, remote notifications etc. Because of its wide range of applications, this technology can be integrated into almost all the industries.

Reports also state that more than 50 billion devices will be connected to the internet via IoT by 2020 transforming into a multi-trillion dollar market. Such is the scope of this amazing technology.

How to get acquainted with IoT?

As this is an upcoming technology, you can’t really learn it through your engineering curriculum. Even the laboratories in most of the colleges of today are not equipped with the materials that support the learning of this technology.

So how can you learn this technology?

Well, IoT is a concept that can only be learned by practicing. Building projects on IoT is a great way to learn the technology and develop skills.

You can start by building relatively simpler projects on IoT to understand the technology from the core and then move on to building bigger projects to strengthen your knowledge.
