“…Table 3 comprises an overview of the literature considered for this section. Specifically, IoRT can offer health, societal, and economic benefits in several applications, in particular for patients groups with certain needs, such as mental disability, stroke patients, sufferers, amputees, and so on [ 108 , 109 ]. The integration of robots with sensors and IoT devices gives several advantages in providing real-time health information and diagnosing patient conditions, aiming to decrease the risk of human mistakes such as diagnosing wrong drugs, doses, and procedures [ 110 ].…”

With the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Internet of Things (IoT) and robotic systems are closely cooperating, reshaping their relations and managing to develop new-generation devices. Such disruptive technology corresponds to the backbone of the so-called Industry 4.0. The integration of robotic agents and IoT leads to the concept of the Internet of Robotic Things, in which innovation in digital systems is drawing new possibilities in both industrial and research fields, covering several domains such as manufacturing, agriculture, health, surveillance, and education, to name but a few. In this manuscript, the state-of-the-art of IoRT applications is outlined, aiming to mark their impact on several research fields, and focusing on the main open challenges of the integration of robotic technologies into smart spaces. IoRT technologies and applications are also discussed to underline their influence in everyday life, inducing the need for more research into remote and automated applications.

The concept of a smart city is becoming increasingly popular to improve citizens’ quality of life. Institutions are also committed to enhancing the sustainability of cities by implementing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This paper presents a Balaguer case study investigating energy demand monitoring, decreasing energy demand, and citizen acceptance in a municipality district. The study collected data from three sources: (1) quantitative data coming from on-site sensors; (2) quantitative data from a simulation of the area; and (3) qualitative data from questionnaires developed with a totem located in the city center. This study shows the importance of citizen science in contributing towards the increased awareness of energy demand, renewable energy, and climate change. But it also shows how citizen science can improve research quality involving the municipality authorities. This study also was instrumental in contributing to the increase in awareness among municipality authorities and capacity building on the topic. This activity may also contribute towards the implementation of actions to reduce the energy demand in public buildings and helping them in deploying policies to decrease energy demand in buildings, increase the use of renewable energy, and increase awareness among citizens. The government will use the information gathered to develop policies for citizen improvement.

The Internet of Things is considered an emerging technology with the potential to penetrate all aspects of our lives. However, with great power comes great responsibility and the privacy and security needed for critical infrastructure or sensitive commercial operations is very different than the needs of a Smart Home. Additionally, the available security resources from the private sector are totally different than the ones available to a homeowner. In this context, we developed an open source architecture for IoT which is based on the advantages of a SCADA system and can be easily applied to a Smart Home. This architecture assures a high-security level, even for low technical skills homeowners, with minimal costs.
