Biophilia
First introduced in 2019, biophilia is the concept of bringing nature indoors using devices such as circadian lighting, air purification, aromatherapy, and automated shades to improve one's health. Research has shown that connecting to nature within your home helps memory, mood, ADHD, stress, inflammation, and immunity. It has taken the industry by storm and is expected to come to the forefront of smart home systems in 2020.
Landscape Lighting
Landscape lighting has been around for many years, but this year several new companies began making products that integrate into smart home systems. It is predicted that landscape lighting will continue to become popular in 2020. Traditional outdoor lighting bulbs will be outlawed on January 1, so you will need to upgrade to LED lighting to be compliant with new federal regulations.
8k Video
8k video is the successor to 4k video, which came out in 2016. It became more common in 2019, but as 2020 rolls around, it will become more prevalent in home theater systems. Why would consumers want 8K? The technology offers four times the pixel density of 4K and 16 times that of 1080p, giving users a more brilliant, lifelike image.
