Internet of things (IoT) as a popular technology plays an important role in the future of the economy. Current literature highlights that IoT has different applications and will change human interaction with the virtual world. As IoT will be a key enabling technology in the future, it is important for all countries to be aware of this development and its applications, and to support related research and investments. In this paper, we aim to inspect the current status of IoT related research in Iran and present a short and brief overview on current IoT related research areas in Iran. We used Scopus as the scientific citation base to access papers published by Iranian authors in this area. Our analysis shows that Iran is in the emerging stage of IoT. Thus, Iranian scholars and institutions should pay more attention to this highly relevant topic and try to create a good body of knowledge to migrate in the maturity stage as soon as possible. Founding an especial Iranian society on internet of thing or a journal, which focuses on IoT in Iran, could be first steps in this direction.
