Abstract:
The smart home technology market is witnessing rapid growth due to the advent of more advanced, intuitive, and affordable solutions. As the adoption of these technologies becomes more prevalent, there is a need for research to explore potential avenues for pervasive smart living. This study aims to review the available literature and industry studies, along with our own experiences in the field, to identify and discuss potential future research in the smart home. We observe that the future of the smart home will likely be focused on improving the user experience, with a greater emphasis on personalization, automation, and Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven technologies, leading to what we call the "Green Intelligent Home". Through this analysis, this study aims to offer insights into how the development of smart homes could shape society in the future and the potential implications of such a development. This study concludes by suggesting a framework for knowledge development in the
smart home domain.
