Overview Increasingly, home is where the tech is – and where it’s making a particularly profound impact on consumers’ quality of life. AI, IoT and other technologies are helping our loved ones age in place comfortably and securely. Families can more easily automate appliance performance to exacting specifications. The trend is convenience, safety and sustainability. Press a button or turn a dial to control lights, window shades and more. See the tech behind it all at CES 2024.

Because today’s homes are consumers’ castles, and probably their biggest investment, an entire tech sector is innovating to help homeowners customize their residences through a raft of smart home solutions. Energy efficiency and automation are top trends in this sector, with consumers favoring products that save time and money while improving security and overall wellbeing. Homeowners are increasingly embracing connected appliances that can be controlled remotely for better energy management.
