The Internet of Things (IoT) has brought the dream of ubiquitous data access from physical environments into reality. IoT embeds sensors and actuators in physical objects so that they can communicate and exchange data between themselves to improve efficiency along with enabling real-time intelligent services and offering better quality of life to people. The number of deployed IoT devices has rapidly grown in the past five years in a way that makes IoT the most disruptive technology in recent history. In this paper, we reevaluate the position of IoT in our life and provide deep insights on its enabling technologies, applications, rising trends and grand challenges. The paper also highlights the role of artificial intelligence to make IoT the top transformative technology that has been ever developed in human history.
