Smart, connected products

Smart, connected products are products that have been built with technology inside them so that they can interact with the internet and be controlled by computers. For example, a smart lightbulb could be “smart” and “connected” because it could be connected to the internet so that you could turn it on and off from your phone or tablet. It could even change colors or dim depending on the time of day or your mood. Smart, connected products are usually able to do things on their own or with a little help from you!
