The Internet of Things (IoT) has captured the attention of industry as the impetus of new growth. For the successful industrial deployment of Internet of Things services, it is important to provide a standardized means of describing "Things." MPEG (ISO/IEC SC29 WG11) developed several standards related to sensors, actuators, and multimedia platforms that can address some of the interoperability problems related to the Internet of Things. In particular, there are several commonalities between the Internet of Things and the terms defined in MPEG-V standards (e.g., sensors, actuators, intelligent engines, adaptation). In this paper, brief summaries of MPEG-V International Standards are given, along with their overall architecture. The relationship between media-related-IoT and MPEG-V is also explained, with usage scenarios, the XML syntax used, and examples
