Definition ∞ IoT Systems are networks of physical devices, objects, and sensors that connect and exchange data over the internet. These systems enable remote observation, control, and data acquisition from various physical environments. They function by collecting data from the real world and transmitting it for processing or action.
Context ∞ The integration of IoT systems with blockchain technology garners increasing interest for strengthening data security, verifying provenance, and automating transactions. Discussions frequently address how decentralized networks can secure data produced by IoT devices, preventing tampering and upholding data integrity. This collaboration holds considerable promise for applications in supply chain oversight, smart urban environments, and automated payment mechanisms.
