Special Criteria:
Topic for 2017: Smart Home and IoT

The internet of things (IoT) and its subniche of the smart home are both strong trends in 2017. It seems like the number of smart home product launches is growing geometrically every year, and that is very exciting.

Just like smartphones continue to have a growing impact on how we live, work and socialize; the internet of things is set to do the same in its respective areas.

You may want to consider the following questions as you write:

-Why is the smart home and IoT movement important?
-How will the IoT shape the world over the next several years? The next decade?
-What are some popular applications and use cases of IoT in the home?
-What are some of the most unique/coolest applications of IoT in the home? (building your own “Jarvis” for example)

Your work will be evaluated based on factors such as creativity, relevancy to IoT/smart home/home security, quality and originality.
