IoT-Based Smart Environments, Applications and Tools

Dear Colleagues,

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a key technology in the current era of digital transformation, revolutionizing our interactions with our surroundings and leading to the emergence of 'smart environments'. This Special Issue, titled “IoT-Based Smart Environments, Applications and Tools”, serves as an interdisciplinary platform that highlights the most recent advancements, trends, and breakthroughs in the field of IoT for smart environments. Its goal is to present research that demonstrates the incorporation of IoT technology in developing smart environments, thereby improving daily human life and boosting efficiency in industrial settings. This Special Issue seeks submissions that focus on innovative IoT solutions, applications, and tools created for real-world challenges across different environment sectors, such as smart homes, cities, industries, and healthcare systems. Emphasis is placed on implementing smart sensor technologies in these settings, showcasing progress in IoT frameworks, data analytics, and the incorporation of AI for more intelligent decision-making processes.

This SI aligns with the scope of Sensors, as it underscores the pivotal role of sensor technology within the IoT ecosystem, providing insights into cutting-edge sensor-based solutions for smart environments.
