The Internet of Everything (IoE) is the paradigm of intelligent services that supports a ubiquitous and always-connected world of smart sensors and actuators, human and non-human in a cyber-physical lifestyle. Recent years have witnessed the fast proliferation of smart devices. In addition, these functional smart sensors possess powerful computation and communication capabilities and contribute to intelligent services outcomes of IoE-based applications. Then by adopting a knowledge-based approach on sensors smartness, we make a comparative assessment and classify smart sensors (image sensors, temperature sensors, proximity sensors, speed sensors, and sound sensors) regarding intelligence levels. We extracted valuable conclusions and inferences from this classification, providing insights and future directions towards promised benefits offered by distilled intelligence in smart sensors applications …
