Definition:

Consumer IoT refers to use of internet connected devices personally used by the end consumer, and not used for commercial purposes. Example of these are Smart Home device or wearables such as gaming equipment (AR/VR devices).

Consumer IoT devices are often controlled and monitored via mobile apps or other software interfaces, allowing users to remotely manage and automate their home appliances and other connected devices.

Additional information:

The Internet of Things market compromise of revenue and revenue growth as the key performance indicators. The market consists of pure IoT revenues generated through the sale of hardware (such as sensors, chips, and other hardware), platforms (IoT platforms, security software and other software), connectivity (cellular, LoRa, SigFox and other connectivity) and services (integration &maintenance of equipment & systems). As an example, the pure IoT revenue for a smart security camera is only the component that makes the camera "smart" and connected, not the full product price. Reported market revenues include spending by consumers (B2C), enterprises (B2B) as well as governments (B2G). Revenues are allocated to the country where the money is spent.

Some of the key players include Bosch and Qualcomm.

    Analyst Opinion

    Consumer IoT, or the Internet of Things for consumer applications, has seen tremendous growth in recent years as more and more devices are being connected to the internet. From smart thermostats to connected doorbells, consumers are embracing the convenience and control that these devices offer.

    One of the biggest challenges is ensuring the security and privacy of consumer data. As more and more devices are connected to the internet, there is a growing risk of cyberattacks and data breaches. Companies must invest in robust security measures and protocols to protect consumer data and prevent unauthorized access.

    Finding compatible smart devices from different manufacturers and connecting them has been a tedious mission. A potential solution to this problem is the manufacturer-independent protocol called Matter, which has been accepted by leading companies such as Bosch, Apple, and Samsung. The new universal standard would allow end users to combine devices from various manufacturers, eliminating one-brand ecosystems, and it is already becoming a norm.

    Internet of Things (IoT) - statistics & facts

    In the realm of technology, few concepts have captured imaginations quite like the Internet of Things (IoT). Coined in 1999 by British technologist Kevin Ashton, IoT envisioned a future where a vast network of interconnected objects would collect and analyze data, enabling them to perform tasks autonomously. While the idea seemed more like science fiction at the time, today, IoT is no longer a hypothetical concept but a rapidly unfolding reality. Thanks to the development of communication technologies such as 5G and data analytics using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, IoT has applications varying from smartwatches to city infrastructure (smart cities).
