Abstract. 
Internet of things (IoT) framework and sensor network has gained increasing momentum in the recent years. 
Different studies have been conducted in order to build models, develop robust concepts, and design societal implementations for 
increasing the life quality of general population. Regarding the COVID-19 pandemy, scientists did not have enough time to generate 
an optimal solution; instead they reacted to the problem and commenced working on the solution. This is maybe the most immediate 
and pressing need for researchers to find solutions in our history. There are certain challenges in sensor technology such as simple 
application, reliability, sensitivity, accuracy. Increased device life time, and being cost-effective. Recent advances in sensor technology, 
wireless communication, and IoT systems, has pointed towards the usefulness of these systems in alleviating the COVID-19 challenges.
