Dipak Rao and Sana Singh: India: Internet Of Things – Indian Legal Perspective

..."The internet of things (IoT) is a set-up of interconnected objects, people or systems that process and react to physical and virtual information. It achieves outcomes that aim to improve user experience or the performance of devices and systems. The expression IoT is increasingly being used to define objects that talk to each other.

When many devices act in unison, they are known as having "ambient intelligence"."
