Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) is commanding a great role in connecting electronic appliances through the cloud. It is an expanding area of research and is finding association with other emerging technologies like 3D printing and machine vision. The growing popularity of the technology is an extension of the Internet boom. An expanding Internet user base, cheaper smart devices and greater on-cloud memory are encouraging the spread of IoT. From fridges to water geysers, any electronic appliance may be connected to the IoT network. The advantages of remote access, master control and cloud storage give it unprecedented advantage over conventional means of communication. In this paper, we attempt to review some latest applications of IoT across various sectors: location tracking, sports, smart devices and blockchain-based security. IoT remains a rapidly developing topic with significant interdisciplinary research and development potential. Further integration of sensors for inputs will propagate the spread of IoT.
