The Internet of Things (IoT) is having a significant impact on our daily lives. For example, devices like Google’s Nest thermostat can learn and adapt to our preferred temperature, monitor the temperature in each room of our house for energy savings, and automatically go into energy saving mode when it senses that we’ve left the house [1]. Other ways the IoT is improving our lives include networks designed to ensure buildings, transportation systems and infrastructure are as efficient as possible [2], cleaner air and water [3], and improved public health [4]. Additionally, the IoT is projected to have an economic impact of around $11.1 trillion by 2025 [5].
The IoT is also having an impact on sustainability. For example, the IoT can help cities improve public health, reduce energy consumption, and improve waste management [6]. Additionally, the IoT can help reduce over-dependency on certain resources, such as water and energy [7].
Overall, the Internet of Things is having a significant impact on our daily lives, from improving public health and energy efficiency to reducing over-dependency on certain resources.
