Why is it important?

The IoT (Internet of Things) plays a crucial role in many requirements of daily life, where healthcare, safety, security, and energy management are considered some of the most significant applications that rely on IoT in their operation. One of these requirements is to perform a smart home that can be controlled by a smartphone, to operate and switch off the electrical or electronic devices and sensors. This can be executed depending on the IoT capabilities to simulate and operate a smart home.
