Hello there !!
Vivaldi first browser to enter into the internet of things realm (IoT)
As per Wikipedia, the Internet of things (IoT) is the internetworking of physical devices, vehicles (also referred to as "connected devices" and "smart devices"),buildings and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity that enable these objects to collect and exchange data. In 2013 the Global Standards Initiative on Internet of Things defined the IoT as "the infrastructure of the information society."
The IoT allows objects to be sensed and/or controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure, creating opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world into computer-based systems, and resulting in improved efficiency, accuracy and economic benefit.
When IoT is augmented with sensors and actuators, the technology becomes an instance of the more general class of cyber-physical systems, which also encompasses technologies such as smart grids, smart homes, intelligent transportation and smart cities. Experts estimate that the IoT will consist of almost 50 billion objects by 2020.
Vivaldi is a freeware, cross-platform web browser developed by Vivaldi Technologies, a company founded by Opera Software co-founder and former CEOJon Stephenson von Tetzchner and Tatsuki Tomita around 2014. Vivaldi released its latest version 1.5 on November 22 accelerating its pace to create a user-centric web browser. Vivaldi now gives you a unique ability to control the colour of smart-home lighting through the browser itself.
Additionally, this release offers a lot of improvements over previous versions, including being able to drag tabs, tab stacks and tab selections between windows. Significant highlights also include delta updates, reader mode button and automatic screenshots in notes.
By the ability to control lights from its browser Vivaldi opens the door for new opportunities for seamless integration between the browser and physical space.
