Nearly 50 Percent Of U.S. Broadband Households Used A Voice-Activated Digital Assistant in 2017

“Innovations such as voice have resonated with consumers, quickly creating new opportunities for companies to leverage voice as a user interface within the consumer IoT,” said Elizabeth Parks, SVP, Parks Associates, in statement. “However, this expansion in voice assistants has also created a fragmented experience — consumers may interact with one assistant on their phone, a different one in their kitchen, and a third in their car. The smart home and IoT markets are working now to solve the problems inherent when many solutions operate within the home, to create a cohesive experience for the consumer.”
