Types of IOT

 1.CIoT - Consumer Internet Of Things 

Consumer IoT (CIoT) refers to the use of IoT for consumer applications and devices. Common CIoT products include smartphones, wearables, smart assistants, home appliances, etc.

Typically, CIoT solutions leverage Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and ZigBee to facilitate connectivity. These technologies offer short-range communication suitable for deployments in smaller venues, such as homes and offices.

2.Commercial Internet Of Things 

While CIoT tends to focus on augmenting personal and home environments, Commercial IoT goes a bit further, delivering the benefits of IoT to larger venues. Think: commercial office buildings, supermarkets, stores, hotels, healthcare facilities, and entertainment venues.

There are numerous use cases for commercial IoT, including monitoring environmental conditions, managing access to corporate facilities, and economizing utilities and consumption in hotels and other large venues. Many Commercial IoT solutions are geared towards improving customer experiences and business conditions.

3.IIoT- Industrial Internet Of Things 

Industrial IoT (IIoT), is perhaps the most dynamic wing of the IoT industry. Its focus is on augmenting existing industrial systems, making them both more productive and more efficient. IIoT deployments are typically found in large-scale factories and manufacturing plants and are often associated with industries like healthcare, agriculture, automotive, and logistics.

The Industrial Internet is perhaps the most well-known example of IIoT.

4.Indrasturs IOT 

Infrastructure IoT is concerned with the development of smart infrastructures that incorporate IoT technologies to boost efficiency, cost savings, maintenance, etc. This includes the ability to monitor and control operations of urban and rural infrastructures, such as bridges, railway tracks, and on- and offshore windfarms.

Technically speaking, infrastructure IoT is a subset of IIoT. However, due to its significance, it’s often treated as its own separate 

5.Internet of Military Things (IoMT)

The last type of IoT is the Internet of Military Things (IoMT), often referred to as Battlefield IoT, the Internet of Battlefield Things, or simply IoBT. IoMT is precisely what it sounds like — the use of IoT in military settings and battlefield situations. It is chiefly aimed at increasing situational awareness, bolstering risk assessment, and improving response times.

Common IoMT applications include connecting ships, planes, tanks, soldiers, drones, and even Forward Operating Bases via an interconnected system. In addition, IoMT produces data that can be leveraged to improve military practices, systems, equipment, and strategy
