| Abstract | |
Internet of underwater things (IoUT) will empower underwater humanitarian applications. IoUT will have the ability to sense locations in the underwater environment, process the data locally, and transmit it via underwater wireless communication. In this article, we discuss how IoUT can benefit humanitarian needs, such as mitigating disasters, relieving in global warming, and providing access to scientific data. We also describe the main approaches and challenges for water sensing and communications, and outline the challenges for IoUT-based humanitarian applications. Finally, we envision future research directions. (AU) | |
