The Third Industrial Revolution or Digital Revolution happened in the late 20th century. It referred to the extensive use of digital technologies in industrial applications, particularly the computer and communication and systems, to automate processes in the production industry through electronics and computers and the Internet. Internet of Things (IoT), term coined by Kevin Ashton in 1999, which the machine got the capability of communicating and communication. The Fourth Industrial Revolution refers to how a combination of internet-connected computing and communication technologies integrates our physical lives. These technologies include the Internet of Things, blockchain, cloud computing, edge computing, robotics, big data, and artificial intelligence (AI).
