IGI Global - Ambient Urbanities: IoT and IoP in Smart Cities

Modern technology-rich environments demand a new way of thinking about how digital tools influence urban life. Ambient Urbanities as the Intersection Between the IoT and the IoP in Smart Cities examines the changing relationship between technology and the spaces we inhabit. This book explores how rethinking technology applications can transform human communication, interaction, and how people learn about and explore their surroundings. As cities become more connected, understanding the connection between the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Internet of People (IoP) becomes essential. This work provides deep insights into the ambient nature of 21st-century smart cities, responsive cities, and future urban landscapes. By looking at learning cities and the evolving urban fabric, the text highlights why people remain the most important element in the development of smart urban environments.
