Parks Associates research estimates that by the 2019, the number of smart homes with an installed controller will increase to 24.5 million. The rise in consumer adoption of health/wellness devices has created new opportunities for nontraditional players to offer innovative healthcare products and services.

Parks Associates, Philips, and ADT Health recently partnered together to co-host a complimentary industry webcast that explored the top connected health use cases in the smart home. It also analyzed new partnerships among technology companies, smart home service providers, and health solution venders.

Research highlights from the webcast included:

• Connected health use cases, including smart sleep and healthy eating solutions
