Shipments of smart home devices worldwide 2018-2028, by category

The global shipment total for smart home devices reached around 892 million units in 2024, with 270 million of those coming from the video entertainment category alone. Of the specifically described types of devices, home monitoring/security is the section that is expected to grow the most between 2024 and 2028 at a CAGR of six percent. A man's home is his (well-watched) castleHome monitoring and security devices include items such as video surveillance cameras and video doorbells. With strong product offerings such as Google's Nest and the Arlo Pro devices (Arlo is no longer a Netgear company), the number of users using smart home security devices worldwide has increased rapidly over the past years, and is set to continue increasing. Closely overlapping with home security cameras are video doorbells, a comparatively young smart home market expected to reach 1.4 billion U.S. dollars in spending by 2023.What smart devices are in the "other" category?The "other" category of smart home devices is another segment anticipated to reach high numbers of shipments. This section includes sensors and detectors, as well as smart switches and digital health devices. One reason this section of various devices could increase is that, as the smart home market grows, more devices that were previously not connected will be developed to have smart capabilities. For example, the use of robotic vacuum cleaners increased in recent years.

全球智能家居设备的总出货量在2024年达到了约8.92亿台，其中仅视频娱乐类别就贡献了2.7亿台。在具体描述的设备类型中，家庭监控与安全类预计将在2024年至2028年期间以年均增长率六个百分点实现最大增长。正如古人所言：“男主之家，其犹国也。”家庭监控与安全设备包括视频监控摄像头和视频门铃等。得益于谷歌的Nest和Arlo Pro等（Arlo已不再是Netgear旗下品牌）等强劲的产品线，近年来全球使用智能家居安全设备的用户数量急剧增加，并预计将持续增长。视频门铃与家庭安全摄像头紧密相连，作为一个相对年轻的智能家居市场，预计到2023年将实现14亿美元的消费。那么，“其他”类别中的智能设备又包括哪些呢？智能家居设备的“其他”类别是另一个预计出货量将达到高位的细分市场。该部分包括传感器、探测器，以及智能开关和数字健康设备。这一设备系列的增长原因之一在于，随着智能家居市场的扩张，越来越多的原先未联网的设备将被开发以具备智能功能。例如，近年来机器人吸尘器的使用量有所增加。
