VIL sets up lab for IoT device testing

New Delhi Telecom operator Vodafone Idea Ltd (VIL) has set up an IoT Lab, essentially a facility for device testing and certification as per standards, in collaboration with Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT).

The IoT (Internet of Things) lab not only validates network performance as per device, but also helps certify solution interoperability, the company said in a release. “...Vodafone Idea (Vi) in partnership with C-DOT is offering a first-of-its-kind IoT Lab with the common vision of promoting standardisation and interoperability in the IoT ecosystem,” the release said. Since its formation in December 2022, more than 50 devices across industries like automobile, utility, BFSI and logistic have been tested. As per a report by industry body NASSCOM, India’s Internet of Things (IoT) market is projected to reach USD 15 billion by 2025.
