Abstract: Shipping Industries is one of the oldest working industry in this world, but when it comes to going hand in hand with current technologies, maritime sector lags behind. Being the backbone of world trade, it can do wonders once it is digitalized. Modern technologies such as IoT which consists of sensor technology could help us make shipping efficient and sustainable. This paper reviews the existing literature on sensor technologies and its applications which could help us in empower efficient shipping. We would also deal with challenges this technology comes with and would discuss solution for it. This culmination of different ideas would help maritime industry to get a better angle on sensor technology or IoT in general.
