Connected appliances are the future

Smart appliances will redraw industry lines by fueling a new cross-industry ecosystem. We can save valuable time spent on household chores by incorporating IoT into our daily lives. Furthermore, with the rise of voice-enabled home devices, it is clear that touchless experiences are becoming the new norm.

40 percent of industry professionals believe that consumer-facing applications will have the greatest impact on business in the next five years, and with more than half of the world's population connected to the internet, manufacturers have an opportunity to provide immersive and interactive solutions and services to tech-savvy connected consumers.

Building smart devices with a software-first approach

The industry will create a new ecosystem by collaborating with OEMs, consumer goods manufacturers, and retail channels. The built-in sensors in a smart appliance will provide product managers with invaluable insights into product usage and issues, assisting them in the design of future products. Connected appliances will also make device registration with an owner more streamlined, allowing for more targeted and personalised reach to individuals.

The difficulties for manufacturers are twofold. The first is managing appliance costs while adding new features to the product, and the second is addressing technical challenges such as software stack maintenance, security challenges for connected products, and performance management.
