Internet of Bodies (IoB) is not more than an extension of Internet of Things (IoT), connecting bodies with the internet. In this webinar, participants learnt more about this theme, as definition, generations and IoB examples.

With the Internet of Bodies, connected devices from tech companies are now being implanted, ingested and affixed to the human body in ways never before imagined. And these connected devices are simultaneously generating tremendous amounts of data about our behaviors, our physiology, and even our DNA.  Examples of Internet of Bodies innovations include smart contact lenses that are able to monitor glucose levels, artificial lenses used to correct vision, Bluetooth-equipped electronic pills, digital tattoos, and even Fitbit devices that monitor and analyze very intimate profiles of your health and physiological functions.
