According to Parks Associates' estimates, by 2019, there will be 24 million homes in the U.S. with an installed smart home controller for home security, energy management or home control applications.
Currently, nearly 30% of U.S. broadband households own a connected health device, and U.S. sales of connected wellness and personal health products and services will exceed $8 billion in 2018.
