Abstract

The Internet of Things is an extension of Internet in which the large number of ‘things’ including sensors actuators and processors, in addition to human users, are connected and able to provide accurate data on their surroundings and also to exercise a degree of control over it. It is still in the stage of development, and many problems/research challenges must be solved before it is widely adopted. Many challenges are of from technical side which includes interoperability and scalability. In business world deciding on how to invest in the IoT is a challenge as billions of heterogeneous devices will be connected. Some of the challenges which must be resolved are also major social, legal and ethical challenges, including security and privacy of data collection. As the future IoT will be a multi-national, multi-industry, multi-technology infrastructure, the paper reviews the impact IoT have in the E-Waste. The main purpose of the paper is to give a broad survey, based on published literature, articles published on the Internet and some suggestions which may assist in dealing with the E-Waste. It is the time to address the problems that will lead to more E-waste due to IoT because IoT turns out to be the part of everyday life and the analysts are predicting ‘IoT with AI’ is the Future. So ‘impact of IoT in E-waste’ has its technical and non-technical research challenge.
