物联网

目前，有99%的物品并未接入“物联网”。但这种情况不会持续太久。麦肯锡的董事们表示，更多产品和工具未来将通过互联网控制，同时生成所有相关数据。传感器将收集机械装置的健康信息、桥梁的结构完整性，甚至微波炉的温度等。

Internet of things

Right now, 99% of physical objects are unconnected to the “internet of things.” It won’t last. Going forward, more products and tools will be controlled via the internet, the McKinsey directors say, and all kinds of data will be generated as a result. Expect sensors to collect information on the health of machinery, the structural integrity of bridges, and even the temperatures in ovens.
