●● Explain the Internet of Things (IoT) and Blockchain.
, Answer: The IoT or the Internet of Everything refers to a move beyond
standalone devices and toward an entire internet-connected ecosystems
of everyday item such as TVs, cars, household appliances, and wearable
tech devices. Blockchains will see their value grow beyond the use in
cryptocurrency and digital currency. As data is stored across a
decentralized network of millions of computers the influence of
blockchain will expand and transform the Internet of Things- and
hopefully reduce the risk of data hacking.
●● What is Augmented and Virtual Reality?
Answer: Augmented Reality (AR) Virtual Reality (VR) and mixed
reality, which combines the two, will be used by 20% of all businesses to
