The metaverse offers a new way of interacting with the world via immersive and interactive technologies. It has the potential to change the way we learn, work and play. 3D modelling, artificial intelligence, virtual, augmented, extended and mixed reality (VR/AR/XR/MR), the Internet of Things (IoT), Web 3.0, 5G and 6G communication, digital twins and simulation technologies, edge and cloud computing, blockchain and cybersecurity are seen as the key enabling and supporting technologies and tools for establishing the next generation metaverse environments. Industrial verticals are keen to embrace the flexible paradigm of the metaverse to be more resilient and relevant to their customers and consumers.

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) allows clinicians to monitor patients remotely via a network of wearable or implantable devices. The devices are embedded with software or sensors to enable them to send and receive data via the internet so that healthcare professionals can monitor health data such as vital statistics, metabolic rates or drug delivery regimens, and can provide advice or treatment plans based on this real-world, real-time data. This edited book discusses key IoT technologies that facilitate and enhance this process, such as computer algorithms, network architecture, wireless communications, and network security.
