As I try to learn more about IOT for my own edumacation, I sometimes stumble upon online articles that impart critical knowledge that I cant help but share. This, below, is one of them.
I am linking to an interesting article about the difference between The "Application-specific IOT" e.g. wearables, the type of IOT that the majority of Americans know and are excited about and "Industry-specific IOT", which is something else that companies within the same industry will pursue.
To read more about the Wisdom of Devices and the evolution of the IoT go to Joe Barkai's discussion on General IoT vs. Application-Specific IoT

Quoting the article:
How will IoT fans, pundits and especially company CEOs betting their company business on IoT explain the disparity between the vision and the reality? We are already witnessing the introduction of new “classes” of IoT such as the “industrial IoT”. I expect that we will witness the emergence of “application-specific IoT” and “industry-specific IoT”, which, in so many ways, will not be that different from the many M2M technology implementations that address narrowly defined yet no less valuable business opportunities such as the solutions implemented, for example, by Axeda at Diebold, EMC, GE Healthcare, and Philips Healthcare.
