These include monitoring of loss prevention devices, personal emergency response systems (PERS), energy management, asset tracking services, and indoor air quality, among others. Parks Associates research finds that 28% of seniors with security systems in place are willing to pay for in-home monitoring services that alert them of dangers and let family members know of any health emergencies, versus 17% of seniors overall. 

 

On November 10 at 3:00 p.m. CT Parks Associates will host the Monitoring Services: Expanding Beyond Security session which evaluates opportunities for monitoring in the connected home for value propositions beyond security. This session opens with an analyst presentation of consumer preferences for a variety of connected services.
