Home automation is the residential extension of building automation. It is
automation of home systems and appliances, housework, or household activity.
Home automation may include centralized control of lighting, heating,
ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), appliances, security locks on gates
and doors and other systems, with the goal(s) of providing improved
convenience, comfort, energy efficiency and security. Home automation for the
elderly and disabled can provide enhanced quality of life for persons who
might otherwise require caregivers or institutional care.
The popularity of home automation has been increasing quickly in recent years
due to much greater affordability and simplicity with Smartphone and tablet
connectivity. The concept of the "Internet of Things" has tied in closely with
the popularization of home automation.
A home automation system integrates electrical devices in a house with each
other. The techniques employed in home automation include those in building
automation as well as the control of domestic activities, such as home
entertainment systems, houseplant and yard watering, pet feeding, changing the
ambiance for different events (such as dinners or parties), and the use of
domestic robots. Devices may be connected through a computer network to allow
control by a personal computer, and may allow remote access from the Internet.
Through the integration of information technologies with the home environment,
systems and appliances are able to communicate in an integrated manner, which
results in convenience, energy efficiency and safety.
STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
This iRAP report has been prepared to highlight the many new developments in
home automation and to estimate the markets in this new emerging industry.
Over the past decade, consumers have rapidly embraced mobile
telecommunications; connectivity has allowed them to stay more and more in
touch with friends and colleagues. Now, the addition of connectivity to home
appliances and the arrival of new online energy management tools are creating
the right environment for a new market in “smart” home services.
The existing niche home automation market is being transformed by the
mass-market availability of connected smart devices that enable a wide variety
of new smart-home services. Both the utilities and communications sectors are
playing a significant role in this transformation.
This report explores trend in 2013 in capabilities of mobile technologies and
the mobile ecosystem that will be crucial for enabling companies from the
utility, home security, mobile health and entertainment industries to design
and deliver viable and valued smart-home services.
In addition, the report looks at how the sharp decline in the cost of
broadband connectivity and embedded chipsets as well as the emergence of
low-power technologies for home area networking are providing an expanding
technological platform for the proliferation of smart-home devices.
This study focuses on home automation architecture product and devices, types,
applications, new developments, industry and global markets, providing market
data about the size and growth of the application segments and including a
detailed patent analysis, company profiles and industry trends. Another goal
of this report is to provide a detailed and comprehensive multi-client study
of the market in North America, Europe, Japan and the rest of the world (ROW)
for home automation architecture and potential business opportunities in the
future.
The objectives include thorough coverage of the underlying economic issues
driving home automation products, services and solutions and analysis of the
impacts of acquisitions and mergers of companies engaged in the home
automation business. Another important objective is to provide realistic
market data and forecasts for home automation products, services and
solutions. This report provides the most thorough and up-to-date assessment
that can be found anywhere on the subject. The study also provides extensive
quantification of the many important facets of market developments in home
automation architecture all over the world. This, in turn, contributes to the
determination of what kinds of strategic responses companies may adopt in
order to compete in this dynamic market.
REASONS FOR DOING THE STUDY
The home automation market is growing fast. Market research forecasts that the
number of connected devices and sensors in an average American home will
increase from four today to sixteen in 2015. At that time, 13% of all U.S.
households are forecast to have energy management systems installed, and
nearly 20% are expected to have monitored security systems in place - up from
2% and 18% today, respectively. In the smart home of the future, these devices
will be integrated into intelligent, interconnected and interoperable systems.
Several candidates are vying for leadership in introducing smart-home services
to the mass market. Historically, connected home services were led by home
automation system manufacturers and installation companies, but new contenders
are emerging among the utility companies, telecom companies, home energy
management providers, and even gaming companies.
In the last five years, many changes have occurred. The telecommunications
sector has begun to address the smart home opportunity. Many of the early
service launches have been based on fixed-line access, taking advantage of
telcos' existing base of home broadband gateways and IP TV set-top boxes to
add home control and monitoring tools. Smart-home services have been dubbed
the “fifth play,” added to telco service portfolios alongside
voice, data, TV and mobile devices. Mobile operators, providing broadband
connectivity to complement fixed broadband, will also be able to leverage
existing networks to provide a home gateway to control smart-home devices.
Therefore, iRAP felt a need to do a detailed technology update and analysis of
this industry.
CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE STUDY
The study is intended to benefit existing manufacturers of security and home
automation products, service providers and solution providers. Low-cost
security and home automation products are positioned to become a preferred
solution over older and more conventional products.
This study also provides the most complete accounting of the growth of
security and home automation products, service providers and solution provider
in North America, Europe, Japan and the rest of the world currently available
in a multi-client format. The markets have also been estimated according to
technology level, systems preferences of customers, technology platform and
geographical region.
The study also provides extensive quantification of the many important facets
of market developments in the emerging markets of security and home automation
products, service providers and solution providers, such as South Korea,
Singapore, Australia and China. This, in turn, contributes to the
determination of what kind of strategic response suppliers may adopt in order
to compete in this dynamic market.
REPORT SUMMARY
Home automation (HA) has made good headway into commercial markets in the past
few years and is still growing. Today, it is possible to control an entire
“smart” home - audio, video, lights, thermostats, IP cameras,
security systems and much more - with easy taps and gestures. It is possible
to quickly browse movie, artwork, or music collections. Easy-to-use
applications provide real-time, touch control of audiovisual systems,
lighting, shades, room temperatures and more, from Android phone or iPhone,
iPod Touch, iPad, or any other devices which can seamlessly communicate with a
HA control system via 3G, GPRS, or EDGE cellular networks or Wi-Fi, to allow
the convenience of remote use and control.
“Managed solutions” refer to standard HA products offered by
broadband service operators. This category had the largest market share of the
total market in 2013. It includes, besides traditional home security companies
like The ADT Corporation, major telecom operators such as Verizon Wireless,
AT&T, Comcast, Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLC, Swisscom AG and Bell Aliant
Inc. Cable operators such as Cablevision Systems Corporation, Bright House
Networks and others have already made public announcements regarding HA
services; some have begun initial rollouts, and many more will jump into the
game this year. Manufacturers of HA products need cable and telephone lines to
connect their automation systems, while cable and telecom companies sell
services based on gear supplied by the industrial companies, so manufacturers
as well as cable and telecom companies act as both partners and competitors.
In coming years, providers will decide which business model suits them best -
selling devices and offering installation, offering menus of
subscription-based services, or partnering with big retailers that offer home
automation systems.
A rising standard of living, combined with growing awareness of energy
efficiency and security requirements, is driving the demand for HA products.
Steady recovery in the global economy and the real estate industry will also
boost the market. Increasing numbers of young, technology-savvy home owners
