Major factors driving the growth of machine to machine market connections is increasing
penetration of internet. Moreover, advancement in technologies and increasing adoption of 2G,
3G, and 4G Long-Term Evolution (LTE) cellular networks are favorable for global M2M market
growth. For instance, according to Internet World Stats, in June 2017, total internet users count
was around 3.89 billion, which is about 51.7% of the global population. Furthermore, substantial
penetration of short range wireless technologies, which includes Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and ZigBee
are further expanding the role of machine to machine connections globally. These wireless
connectivity technologies enables real time communication. They have applications in
healthcare for patient monitoring devices, car infotainment systems, and smart appliances.
Mobile, other connected devices including wearables, and social media are key factors
responsible for the evolution of machine to machine connections and have also accelerated
overall growth of the market. These enables a new way of real time communication in cost
effective way. For instance, according to Coherent Market Insights’ analysis, in 2016, over 68%
of global population was already using mobile phones and the count of M2M connections were
around 192 million in 2014 as compared to over 70 million in 2010. Machine to machine
connections transmit data between mobile devices and the cellular network.
