You're
driving home from work. Your connected car pings your estimated time of
arrival to your smart home, which springs into life.
The
thermostatically controlled heating comes on; your chosen lighting
scheme glows welcomingly; the oven begins warming up the casserole you
cooked the night before.
When you arrive the garage door swings
open automatically and your car self parks; your front door opens
automatically, too - the facial recognition security system identifies
you - no more fumbling for keys.
As you enter your nicely warmed
home - dust-free courtesy of robot vacuum cleaners - music wafts through
each room to suit your mood.
This is one vision of the smart, or connected, home. But how realistic is it and how soon could it happen?
Mass market
All
of the technologies making such a scenario possible are here already,
says Holger Knoepke, vice president of connected home for German
telecoms giant, Deutsche Telekom.
His company has just launched a report highlighting the huge business opportunity it believes the connected home presents for retailers, insurers, manufacturers, utilities and telecoms companies.
"We
realised that the smart home will be a mass market - 50% to 80% of
people say they're interested in smart home services," says Mr Knoepke.
