FAQ

What is the difference between industrial IoT (IIoT) and consumer IoT?

IIoT (factories, energy, transport) demands reliability, security and long lifespan. Consumer IoT (smart home, wearables) prioritizes cost and user experience. Skills overlap but constraints differ.

Which wireless protocols should I learn first?

BLE for proximity, LoRaWAN for long-range low-power, Wi-Fi for bandwidth, Matter for home automation. MQTT is the most widespread application protocol.
