Internet of things terminals are everywhere in our life. Monitoring, sensors, mobile network devices, home intelligent devices are all terminals of Internet of things. These terminals also enable the Internet of things to realize the Internet of things. The Internet of things is the third trend of the world's information industry. In the future, the Internet of things will be combined with many intelligent devices to reach the top level of the Internet of things, making people's purchase more transparent.

Many people think that the Internet of things and artificial intelligence represent the same thing, which is obviously a misunderstanding. The Internet of things (IOT) uses information sensing devices to connect any project to the Internet under some network protocols, so as to realize the Internet of things. Artificial intelligence is different. Artificial intelligence is the extension of human intelligence. It is a high-level intermediary for information processing. Artificial intelligence belongs to the branch of computer. From the analysis of these two concepts, they are related to information. The significance behind it is the era of big data. It can be said that these two concepts are important links of big data.

In the era of big data, the Internet of things can collect a lot of information through the connection between goods and the Internet. Then the collected information is transferred to artificial intelligence for processing and analysis to make the data clearer. The two technologies are now separate, but from the perspective of the future development of the two technologies, the connection between information collection and information analysis is certainly inseparable, so the two technologies are different in concept. But the roles of the future are closely linked.

When it comes to the Internet of things, we must talk about a technology, that is, 5g communication technology. Some people may say that 5g is just a communication technology and the Internet of things. What is the relationship between 5g communication technology and the Internet of things? Many people will have this misunderstanding, and will understand 5g as just to increase network speed.

Today's Internet of things technology is not enough to achieve universal status, but it's only a matter of time. The world conceived by the Internet of things has three main scenes, which can be called classic scenes and the best embodiment of the Internet of things.

Smart city is the best embodiment of urban Internet of things application. In the concept of smart city, enterprises have a new business model, as well as location protection for the elderly and children, pet tracking and other functions require a lot of sensors. This is exactly the characteristics of the Internet of things. These sensors can scale data from small to large. After becoming big data, the Internet of things makes it possible for big data to be portable.

Smart industry. The Internet of things can monitor industrial production and sales processes, integrate intelligence and industry, create innovative industrial models, expand logistics and transportation applications, and make the industry more secure and transparent. Sharing technology. The Internet of things brings about the integration of sharing and intelligence for sharing technology, such as innovative applications of sharing bicycles, intelligent hardware, etc., which makes sharing technology more advanced and life industry more integrated.

Although the Internet of things has been proposed for a long time, the implementation of specific applications needs a lot of high-tech support. At present, these high-tech technologies are not mature enough, and the Internet of things can only be applied in a very small range and cannot be popularized. However, the future development of the Internet of things is not a big problem. From the current small-scale applications of the Internet of things, we can see that the Internet of things plays an important role in the coming era of big data, and these small-scale applications have been able to see good results, so for the Internet of things, many researchers have good ideas, they need to work harder to turn these ideas into reality.
