The Internet of Things (IoT) technology is not just about the connection among billions of devices but also about enabling a wide range of new capabilities, architectures, or service paradigms. The scale of the IoT is set to have a major economic, social, and environmental impact. However, the implementation of IoT faces various challenges, including sensing ability, energy consumption, power supply, data security, privacy, and data accountability. In order to mitigate these challenges, more and more IoT systems are embracing the new IoT paradigm, such as millimeter-wave (mmWave), sensor-less sensing, backscattering Wi-Fi/RFID, wireless/vision hybrid, blockchain, fat client, and so on. These modes shed light on the emerging technologies that could revolutionize the conventional IoT systems.
