mobile medical alert systems
The demand for smart smoke detectors has risen owing to concerns regarding fire safety and increased adoption of smart devices. A smart smoke detector system consists of four components namely sensors, processing unit, communication system, and alarm system. The sensors monitor the air in environment and detect for smoke particles which are prone to cause hazardous situation. The information obtained by these sensors is then analyzed and checked for any mishap that might take place in a period of time. This information is sent to user’s device such as smartphone or tablet through wireless connections using communication platform such as Wi Fi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, and Z Wave, among others. In case of fire or smoke, the alarm in the detector triggers and notifications are sent to all the connected devices. With the advent of artificial intelligence and internet of things IoT in the development of smart devices, the market for smart smoke detector has become lucrative for manufacturers to integrate these technologies in smoke detectors, encouraging them develop new products in smoke detector. The major factor attributing to the growth of smart smoke detector market includes growing number of fatal injuries in commercial buildings and industrial premises. Moreover, customers inclination towards smart buildings is fueling the market growth. However, high costs incurred in the deployment of smart smoke sensors might hamper the growth of smart smoke detector market. The market seeks opportunities owing to adoption of IoT and connected technologies by the customers.
