COVID-19 has disrupted normal life and has enforced a substantial change in the policies, priorities and activities of individuals, organisations and governments. These changes are proving to be a catalyst for technology and innovation. In this paper, we discuss the pandemic's potential impact on the adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) in various broad sectors, namely healthcare, smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, transportation and industrial IoT. Our perspective and forecast of this impact on IoT adoption is based on a thorough research literature review, a careful examination of reports from leading consulting firms and interactions with several industry experts. For each of these sectors, we also provide the details of notable IoT initiatives taken in the wake of COVID-19. We also highlight the challenges that need to be addressed and important research directions that will facilitate accelerated IoT adoption.
COVID-19 扰乱了正常生活,迫使个人、组织和政府改变政策、优先事项和活动。这些变化正在成为技术和创新的催化剂。在本文中,我们讨论了大流行对物联网 (IoT) 在各个广泛领域(即医疗保健、智能家居、智能建筑、智能城市、交通和工业物联网)采用的潜在影响。我们对物联网采用的这种影响的观点和预测是基于对文献的深入研究、对领先咨询公司报告的仔细检查以及与几位行业专家的互动。对于这些领域中的每一个,我们还提供了在 COVID-19 之后采取的值得注意的物联网举措的详细信息。我们还强调了需要解决的挑战和将促进物联网加速采用的重要研究方向。
