 WEEKEND ROUNDUP | |

These were the top smart home trends at CES The 2019 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) just wrapped in Las Vegas, and tech companies of all stripes were unveiling their latest smart home devices. A few trends stood out as developments that will define the segment this year:- Companies are finding ways to integrate AI voice assistants into the home without dedicated devices.
- Despite the rising prominence of voice, it isn't always enough, and companies are responding by building screened smart home devices.
- More companies are adding support for all of the major smart home ecosystems.
Business Insider Intelligence forecasts total US smart home devices will exceed 1 billion by 2023, and this growth will depend on companies continuing to innovate and build links between various devices.
