I’m skeptical there are customers really asking for this.

  If there's one thing I learnt the last decade, it's to not underestimate how even the shittiest of tech, like a smart fridge or an iot juice press, will become must-haves for the consuming class. In this case, perhaps it's "find my keys", "alert me when my toddler wakes up", "metaverse body tracking", etc/whatever.

    Yeah, I realized we are on a far side of the bridge when I saw how many people in the USA decided to buy their Echos. It is estimated the USA has ca. 140 housing units, and that there are 40 millions of Echos in use now. A device I would refuse to install in my house even if someone paid me a lot for it.

  Customers also didn't ask for even more ads and tracking in their TV, but they did ask for cheaper devices - the result is that you'll have to shell out serious bucks for "digital signage"-style displays if you want to live in peace.

  Warehouse and asset tracking and management is the number customer of this technology. On consumer router this will be just a marketing bullet points. Find your car key were you always put them but forgot.
