As smart devices multiply, so do fears over digital surveillance
Smart devices are internet-connected, often AI-powered, appliances and electronics—like smart bulbs, cameras, and thermostats—that can be monitored and controlled remotely or automated to improve convenience, security, and energy efficiency in homes and industries. They utilize sensors to gather data and often work together via platforms like Google Home or Apple HomeKit, with many now supporting the Matter standard for improved compatibility
A smart device is an electronic device, generally connected to other devices or networks via different wireless protocols (such as Bluetooth, Zigbee, near-field communication, Wi-Fi, NearLink, Li-Fi, or 5G) that can operate to some extent interactively and autonomously. Several notable types of smart devices are smartphones, smart speakers, smart cars, smart cards, smart thermostats, smart doorbells, smart locks, smart refrigerators, phablets and tablets, smartwatches, smart bands, smart keychains, smart glasses, smart TV, and many others. The term can also refer to a device that exhibits some properties of ubiquitous computing, including—although not necessarily—machine learning.
