It will be exciting to see what Google actually has in store for Google I/O next week. At the annual developer conference Google is expected to announce Google Glass 2, updates on Android and hopefully the new IoT operating system.
Internet of Things is being considered as the next big thing. It is a concept of using sensors and other technologies to hook just about anything to the Internet and control them wirelessly.
