What is IoT ?
Network of physical objects embedded with sensors
IoT stands for the Internet of Things. It is a network of physical objects (“things”) such as appliances, vehicles, machines and wearables that are embedded with sensors, software, actuators and network connectivity.
These objects collect data through their sensors and exchange it over the internet (via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, cellular links, etc.) so that they can be monitored and controlled remotely, for example smart homes, smart meters and industrial monitoring.
IoT is about real physical objects rather than virtual objects, it is not tied to a ring topology, and a network made only of sensors is a wireless sensor network, which is just one building block of IoT.
Hence, the answer is Network of physical objects embedded with sensors.
