Emerging Applications Perspective for Internet of Things

Internet of Things (IoT) is the interconnection of smart physical objects which have Internet connectivity, enabling them to collect data and interact with other devices. It is an evolving technology, which will revolutionize the way we interact with homes, offices, factories, farms, retailing, transportation, logistics etc. In essence, IoT is bound to change how we interact with the physical objects in our surroundings. Technologies like Wireless Sensor Networks and Radio-Frequency Identification are paving the way for the development of this concept. This paper classifies different application domains with a description of some emerging projects and applications in each domain along with the tools which have been used for the same. Next, the challenges and issues in the adoption of IoT have also been conferred.
