Abstract
This report provides in-depth analysis of the home controls market based on
surveys and research of all principals in the home systems installation
channel, including custom electronic systems designers / integrators, security
systems integrators / installers, home builders, & consumers. It provides
updated forecasts of unit sales and revenues for home controls, presented both
in aggregate and in key segments including application, single-family vs.
multifamily units, and new vs. existing homes.
“Activities like Best Buy' s new ConnectedLife.Home package are setting
the stage for broad-based adoption of connected home systems,” said Bill
Ablondi, director of home systems research for Parks Associates. “The
market for home controls lacks consumer awareness, not technical capability,
and the entry of high-profile companies, together with the increasing adoption
of broadband and connected-entertainment services, will help overcome this
hurdle.”
