  The world had witnessed several generations of the Internet. Starting with
the Fixed Internet, then the Mobile Internet, scientists now focus on many
types of research related to the "Thing" Internet (or Internet of Things). The
question is "what is the next Internet generation after the Thing Internet?"
This paper envisions about the Tactile Internet which could be the next
Internet generation in the near future. The paper will introduce what is the
tactile internet, why it could be the next future Internet, as well as the
impact and its application in the future society. Furthermore, some challenges
and the requirements are presented to guide further research in this near
future field.
