One example of improvement in the industrial world due to IoT that Greengard provides is the utilization of RFID sensors in truck fleets and pallets to improve distribution time management. This is just a single example of the incorporation of IoT in the industrial world, but the applications are plenty in the field.
One drawback of the rise of IoT would be the time and cost of implementing such a system within a company. Creating the physical RFID tags introduce a new cost, and the installation of said tags into all trucks and pallets are a headache in of their own. Not to mention the software that is needed to manage all of the tags.
