Smart home devices refer to devices that can be remotely controlled from any internet-connected location worldwide using a mobile or other network device. These interconnected smart home appliances provide users with access to control functions such as home security checks, temperature adjustments, lighting controls, and home theater settings.
The technologies employed in smart home devices include Wi-Fi technology and Bluetooth technology. Wi-Fi technology is a wireless technology that links computers, tablets, smartphones, and other devices to the internet. This involves the transmission of a radio signal from a wireless router to a nearby device, which then converts the signal into usable data. Smart home devices find applications in energy management, climate control systems, healthcare systems, home entertainment systems, lighting control systems, and security and access control systems. These devices are available for purchase through both online and offline channels.

The rise in urbanization is anticipated to drive the growth of the smart home devices market in the future. Urbanization refers to the increasing concentration of populations in urban areas, marked by the expansion of cities and towns alongside social, economic, and infrastructural transformations. Smart home devices not only improve convenience and energy efficiency for urban dwellers but also foster sustainable urbanization by optimizing resource usage, minimizing carbon footprints, and creating smarter living environments that can adapt to the needs of densely populated areas. For example, in January 2022, the United States Department of Commerce, a U.S.-based executive department, reported that the population in the U.S. reached 332,403,650 in 2022, reflecting a 0.21% increase from 2021. Therefore, the rise in urbanization is fueling the growth of the smart home devices market.
The growing number of IoT-connected devices in buildings is projected to boost the smart home device market moving forward. IoT (Internet of Things) connected devices in buildings encompass various physical objects or systems equipped with sensors, software, and communication capabilities, enabling them to collect and exchange data with one another and centralized systems via the internet. Smart home devices represent a subset of these IoT-connected devices, aimed at enhancing residential living. They offer convenience, automation, and data-driven insights that improve homeowners' quality of life while contributing to the wider IoT ecosystem through data sharing and interoperability. For instance, in March 2023, Ericsson, a Sweden-based telecommunications company, noted that the number of IoT connections reached 13.2 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow to 34.7 billion.
The growth of the smart home device market is hampered by high switching costs. The expense associated with smart appliances, including upfront costs such as installation and maintenance, poses a barrier to adoption for both consumers and organizations. According to a 2021 survey by Parks Association, 44% of 46.7 million households surveyed stated that smart devices are perceived as too expensive. For instance, in the USA, a smart thermostat costs around $250, while a traditional thermostat is priced at approximately $25. This cost factor negatively impacts the market by impeding widespread adoption.
Companies are actively developing voice assistants for the management of smart home devices. These digital assistants respond to voice commands and provide relevant information, distinguishing themselves from traditional keyboard-based searches. They emphasize conversational phrasing and prioritize long-tail keywords for searches. For example, both Amazon and Google have introduced voice assistants for their respective smart speakers. Amazon's Echo smart speaker features the Alexa Voice Assistant, while Google's Google Home smart speaker is equipped with the 'Google Assistant' voice assistant.
Major players in the smart home devices market are strategically incorporating generative artificial intelligence into their products to optimize market revenues. Generative AI enhances user experiences by facilitating natural language interactions, personalized content, automation, and real-time data analysis. In September 2023, Amazon.com Inc., a US-based technology company, introduced generative AI for its voice assistant Alexa, incorporating user personal context such as favorite foods, shows, music, and games. This innovation is positioned as suitable for various settings, including voice, attractions, and homes with individuals of all ages.
