Parks Associates research shows more than five million smart water leak detectors will be sold in the U.S. by 2020, generating more than $220 million in annual revenues. These types of devices have generated interest among new players, including the insurance industry, which could create new revenues through the data generated. Consumers are also interested in working with insurance companies in the IoT, as more than 50% of U.S. broadband households rank insurance providers alongside electricity providers and security monitoring providers among the top three most trustworthy companies in this space.
