| description | This review article critically examines the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) sensors and wireless technology into polymer composites, highlighting its transformative potential in materials science. The focus is on real-time monitoring of key parameters such as temperature, stress, strain, humidity, and environmental exposure, which are essential for predictive maintenance and performance optimization. This review covers existing research and technological developments in IoT-enabled polymer composites, including sensor technologies, data transmission, cloud-based analysis, and digital twin creation for rapid design optimization and troubleshooting. The scope of this review does not extend to experimental procedures for sensor integration, detailed material property enhancements unrelated to IoT technologies, or the development of new composite materials without IoT integration. Key challenges such as standardization, data security, and system interoperability are discussed, and future research directions are proposed. By defining the scope and boundaries of the discussion, this review provides a comprehensive overview of how IoT integration is advancing the performance, reliability, and sustainability of polymer composites across industries such as aerospace, automotive, and infrastructure. |
