Smart home market to meet outbreak: scale up to 130 billion

　　Intelligence lives in broad development space
　　
From a global perspective, due to the user for the traditional household products use habits is different, also can differ in terms of smart home choice. In the United States market, penetration of household central air conditioning has more than 70%, and 85% of households with central heating thermostat, 60% of households with refrigeration equipment central thermostat, represented by intelligent thermostat intelligent energy-saving products. In the European market, guards against the product got the attention of consumers, Britain, Spain and Germany has nearly 80% of the broadband home users tend to choose intelligent home security products.

While consumers interested in intelligent electrical appliances product is in our country. Tencent appliance according to the survey, intelligence, intelligent electric light, intelligent air conditioning, intelligent TV cameras, smart and intelligent refrigerator and washing machine intelligence intelligent household air purifier as users want to buy the product. In addition, Chinese Internet users reached 668 million, Internet penetration is around 50%, has the good development of smart home conditions, but intelligent household penetration in China is less than 5%, compared with the gap is bigger, the vast development space in the future.

Intelligent household to be unified
