Question 1

What is the Internet of Things (IoT) and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

The Internet of Things (IoT) connects physical devices—like machines, sensors, and other hardware—to the internet, enabling them to operate independently without human intervention. These devices gather and transmit data, unlocking real-time insights and automation across countless applications. At TigerTek, we leverage IoT to craft smart, connected solutions that empower businesses with efficiency and innovation.

Question 2

What factors are fueling the rapid growth of IoT?

Accepted Answer

IoT's rapid growth is fueled by two key factors: the rising demand for seamless connectivity in every aspect of life and groundbreaking technological advancements. Today’s small, low-power sensors can connect via mobile data or satellites and operate for years on minimal power, making it possible to deploy them even in the most remote locations. At TigerTek, we harness these innovations to deliver state-of-the-art solutions tailored to our clients' evolving needs.

Question 3

Which industries are using IoT effectively?

Accepted Answer

Several sectors are leading the way in IoT adoption:
 • Manufacturing:  Known as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), this involves sensors      monitoring machinery for vibrations, temperature, or noise to enable predictive maintenance. Data from hundreds of machines can be processed centrally to reduce downtime and optimise operations.
 • Logistics and Supply Chain: IoT offers real-time tracking of goods globally. For sensitive cargo like vaccines, sensors can detect temperature breaches during transit and trigger immediate interventions.
 • Conservation: In remote wildlife areas, low-power satellite-enabled sensors are used to      monitor animal behaviour without the need for large batteries or solar power.

Question 4

Which industries are gradually embracing IoT?

Accepted Answer

While some industries have been slower to adopt IoT, the tide is turning. In agriculture, smart sensors are revolutionizing farming—think ingestible devices for livestock health or in-poultry house sensors enhancing welfare and productivity. In healthcare, IoT has evolved from basic emergency wearables to discreet, continuous remote monitoring systems. Smart home sensors now provide peace of mind by alerting carers to unusual behaviors, like missed meals or open doors at night. At TigerTek, we’re dedicated to accelerating IoT adoption across all sectors, ensuring every industry benefits from our innovative solutions.

Question 5

What are the main challenges associated with IoT?

Accepted Answer

Security is a significant concern. Many smart devices are vulnerable to data misuse or unauthorised access. For example, some mobile apps request unnecessary permissions (e.g., access to your contacts or microphone), which could be exploited.

There have been high-profile breaches, including a corporate hack traced back to an app for a remote gate opener. As a result, public sector organisations are increasingly strict, often prohibiting certain apps or devices entirely. At TigerTek, we address this by building secure, self-contained systems with custom code and private networks, avoiding generic off-the-shelf components wherever possible.

Question 6

What are the latest trends shaping the future of IoT?

Accepted Answer

The future of IoT is being shaped by two groundbreaking trends: AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things), which combines IoT with AI to enable devices to analyze data locally and act autonomously, and evolving connectivity, where devices seamlessly switch between terrestrial networks, low-power systems, and satellite communication for global coverage. At TigerTek, we lead the charge in these innovations, ensuring our solutions remain cutting-edge.

Question 7

What makes TigerTek a leader in the IoT industry?

Accepted Answer

TigerTek leads the IoT industry by delivering end-to-end custom solutions—from cutting-edge hardware and sensors to fully integrated software and secure connectivity. Unlike others, we don’t just piece together components; we design, build, and code solutions tailored to each client’s unique environment and needs.
