In partnership with the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA), Parks Associates has released the new white paper, which explores the progress of the smart home, highlighting key milestones, emerging consumer demands, and the increasing role of artificial intelligence (AI).
“As the market has grown, the base of households owning smart home devices has expanded beyond tech enthusiasts to more practical users seeking lasting value and reasonable costs,” said Jennifer Kent, VP, Research, Parks Associates. “As the market moves into this next phase, new layers of value, including integrations/interoperability, intelligence, and the development of services, are needed.”
Greater intelligence, ease of integration, adjacent service offerings, and quality of service will shape the market going forward and define the competitive edge,” Kent said.
