-As the world moves towards the Internet of Things future, many existing connected home products (Home camera / Thermostats / Lighting / Door Lock / Home Hub) require an app on your personal smartphone (leveraging smartphone’s display). Home is where many things are out in the open and shared among family members. Is smartphone the best device for your future Connected Home?  Why are shared home devices gets accessed by personal smartphones? Questions such as these give rise to a new project at Mozilla. Project Smart Displays is set out to explore the role of displays at home and understand what role displays might play in the future connected home and opportunities for innovation.

+As the world moves towards the Internet of Things (IoT) future, many existing connected home products (home cameras, thermostats, lighting, door locks, smart hubs, etc.) require apps to be installed on personal smartphones, in order to leverage them as a display. The home is where many things are out in the open and shared among family members. ''Is the smartphone the best device for the connected home of the future?  Should shared home devices be accessed by personal smartphones?'' These are the questions driving this new project at Mozilla: '''Project Smart Displays'''. We have set out to explore the role of displays in the home in order to understand what role they might play in the connected home of the future, where we will identify the opportunities for innovation.
