Any debate about what is influencing the direction of contemporary engineering in the GCC could easily sound like it’s happening in Silicon Valley, rather than a typical consultant’s office or on a local construction site. But there’s no doubt that innovations once confined to the tech world are rapidly emerging as tools for building the real one.
Internet of Things (IoT)
Over the last few years we’ve heard a lot about the development of smart buildings and cities. The Internet of Things, or IoT for short, is a key enabling technology that will help make our smart ambitions real. Essentially made up of a remote network of devices with varying levels of sensor capability, the IoT is also set to be a product-rich field.
