A guided tour of the rapidly evolving networked world of connected devices, objects, and people that is changing the way we live and work.

Since the publication of the original edition of this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, the Internet of Things (IoT) has evolved from a novelty (look! my phone connects to my lamp!) to a mainstream technology framework that we rely on every day to accomplish many tasks. This revised and updated edition reports on the latest developments in this rapidly evolving networked world of connected devices, objects, and people that is changing the way we live and work.

Business and technology writer Samuel Greengard takes us on a guided tour of the IoT, describing smart lightbulbs, sensors in phones that trigger earthquake warnings, 3D headsets that connect users to business expos through completely immersive virtual reality environments, and more. He offers a clear explanation of the technology that builds and manages the IoT and examines the growing array of consumer devices now available, from smart door locks to augmented reality fitting rooms. Greengard also shows how the IoT is part of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which is transforming business through smart manufacturing, end-to-end supply chain visibility, integrated artificial intelligence, and much more. He considers risks associated with the IoT, including threats to free speech, growing inequality, and an increase in cybercrime. Finally, he takes a look at the future of a hyperconnected world and what it means to people and human interaction.

VERY NICE BUT TOO BIG
Size: One Size, Color: Lilac Ditsy Floral
Let me start by saying its a great product and looked to be made very well. I did have to return it though because it was far too big for my child. Other than size being 1 size fits all with no dimensions given and, yes, somewhat smaller than other backpacks (for adults) it seemed to be a decent backpack. Too bad we couldn't use it but if you have a older kid would would great for.

Good Quality
Size: One Size, Color: Light Pink
Bought this for my 2 year old daughter for daycare. Big enough to fit her blanket, diapers wipes and extra clothing. Good quality and fits her well. She loves it.

Pretty in Pink and Packed with Fun
Size: One Size, Color: Lilac Ditsy Floral
This cute pink floral backpack has quickly become the star of our morning routine! The bright flowers and cheerful pink color make it feel extra special—my little one beams every time she puts it on. It’s the perfect size for kids: roomy enough to fit snacks, a water bottle, and school essentials, but not so big that it looks like the backpack is wearing them. The straps are comfy and adjustable, and the zipper is smooth (no stuck mornings here, thank goodness!). Plus, it’s lightweight, which makes it great for school, playdates, or even little adventures to the park. It’s not just a backpack—it’s basically a portable burst of sunshine and style. 🌸💕 Definitely a winner for any kiddo who loves to carry their world in something as cute as they are!
