- Abstract
-
Internet of Things has become very essential technological tool and gaining wide acceptability globally due to the convenience, economy and effectiveness it adds to various life operations into which it is being applied. This study reviews how IoT has evolved till date and taking a look at the future of this technology. The objectives of the study include examining the technology upon which IoT was developed, various fields into which it has been implemented, its impacts and applications in essential fields, advantages and disadvantages of IoT in several fields of life. IoT has greatly impacted the manufacturing industries, agriculture and sports. IoT market will experience inconceivable increase in the future in that it is expected to be hybridized with artificial intelligence (AI) to facilitate effective security, domestic services and smart cities; with 6G/7G technology for effective telecommunications; with robotic technology for space and marine explorations. Security and interference issues across the complex network of things are some of the anticipated challenges but since no technology stands alone, others such AI will help to mitigate the challenges. Therefore, it is obvious that IoT will make all fields more efficient by ensuring security, enhanced productivity, education and boosting economy, leading to a smart world.
