Highly improved connectivity
The year 2018 has already witnessed connected toilets, microwaves and cars. According to a declaration by the electronics giant Samsung a few years ago, all of their products will be intelligent and IoT (Internet of Things) ready by the year 2020. Other big names such as LG and Sony are also expected to follow the trend.
According to predictions by Gartner, by the time we touch 2020, we will come across 20.4 billion connected things worldwide, among which 12.8 billion will be a part of the smart home technology.
Besides Wi-Fi connection, Juniper Research states that 1 in 10 homes will feature something as smart as a ‘housekeeping robot’ which was just 1 in 25 until 2017. Housekeeping robots like Jibo (pictured above) helps you with services, tailored to your needs like delivering you forecast, calendar updates and news headlines. Other such robots include LG’s CLOi robot that can even get you a drink and help you with your shopping.

We are already accustomed to security cameras that help us monitor our homes from a distant place. But the future has on hold something that is much bigger as we will get to witness Artificial Intelligence (AI) playing a greater role than that of now, which will take the human aspect of remote monitoring to a whole new level.
AI will help in the detection of threat and will be able to raise an alert if something goes wrong or some sort of threat arises. Besides alerting threats, cameras with AI capabilities (pictured above) will be able to detect faces of family members, pets and regular visitors, and it will not raise an alert if a known person is visiting. Such cameras will also be capable of detecting and alerting if a window is opened or broken. Some other cameras feature sirens which help in raising a loud alert with neighbours and alike in case of any intrusions.
