Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged as a groundbreaking innovation, bridging the gap between the physical and digital worlds and profoundly influencing various aspects of daily life. In healthcare, IoT has revolutionized the use of connected medical devices, enabling real-time patient monitoring and improving the management of chronic illnesses. In the industrial sector, IoT supports predictive maintenance, enhances manufacturing processes, streamlines supply chain operations, and facilitates asset tracking. Smart cities leverage IoT to improve infrastructure management, strengthen security measures, and promote sustainable practices. Similarly, agriculture has undergone a transformation with IoT-enabled precision farming, which optimizes resource usage and boosts crop yields. In residential settings, IoT powers smart home automation, allowing homeowners to remotely manage devices and systems. The transportation sector is also undergoing significant changes with IoT, driving advancements in connected and autonomous vehicles, as well as delivering innovative solutions for safety, navigation, and onboard entertainment. The combination of IoT and artificial intelligence (AI) offers substantial benefits across multiple industries by improving operational efficiency, enabling data-driven decision-making, and fostering the development of smarter, more interconnected environments. This article presents a bibliometric analysis of IoT applications across industrial sectors between 2018 and 2023. The study compares the most extensively explored domains, identifies their trends and performance, and examines key technologies currently dominating the landscape. Special attention is given to those technologies designed to optimize operations, enhance efficiency, and minimize costs.
