 ======= Internet of Things (IoT) =======
 ====The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances, and other items embedded with sensors, software, and connectivity, allowing them to collect and exchange data with other devices and systems over the internet.====
-This interconnected web enables objects to become "smart" by connecting them to the internet, primarily through the use of [[wifi|2.4GHz WiFi]] facilitating remote monitoring, control, and automation. {{ :iot_gadgets.jpg?nolink&400|}}
+The pictured diagram, shows how microcontrollers enable normal objects to become "smart" by connecting them to the internet, primarily through the use of [[wifi|2.4GHz WiFi]] facilitating remote monitoring, control, and automation. {{ :iot_gadgets.jpg?nolink&400|}}
 **Our open-source greenhouse controllers are a perfect example of [[internet_of_things|IoT]] in action.** By leveraging the [[esp32|ESP32]] microcontrollers and hosting web panels that show temperature readings and allow users to adjust settings remotely, we've created a seamless and intuitive system for managing greenhouse conditions from anywhere in the world. This level of accessibility and control not only simplifies tasks like monitoring temperature fluctuations but also enables more precise management of plant growth and development, especially for the hobbyist/home grower.
