Internet of Things
The research related to emerging technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT) holds paramount importance across the globe as of today.
Internet of Things (IoT)

Welcome to IoT
The IoT Research at NUST
NUST SEECS has launched a series of IoT events since August 2017, ranging from symposia, basic and advanced workshops to IoT research boot camp.
- Consequently, a number of smart solutions addressing the local problems have been developed.
- To advance IoT projects and to further extend the research in this domain, this dedicated lab came into being in August 2018.
