數位家庭過去十年發展顛簸 早在2003年6月，Intel、Microsoft聯合其他15家廠商組成數位家庭工作聯盟（Digital Home Working Group，DHWG），正式進軍數位家庭。當時，Intel成立消費性電子產品事業群（Customer Electronics Group，CEG）負責推動數位家庭事業發展；而微軟則發表一系列以Microsoft軟體為開發平台的數位家庭產品。在2006年Intel推出ViiV平台發展跨產品內容分享與存取；而在2008年Intel則與多家廠商組成Home Grid發展家庭聯網標準。 相較於Wintel，日系家電大廠Hitachi與Panasonic在1999年即倡導利用電力線（Power line）作為家庭聯網技術，成立ECHONET聯盟；而Sony與Panasonic亦於2003年7月成立CELF聯盟，訴求採用Linux作業系統作為資訊家電軟體平台。雖然，各方有採用的技術、平台不同，共同目標皆是建立互通性標準規格，讓各設備可以相互操控、內容共享，以創造數位家庭商機。 除資通訊與家電大廠外，網路服務業者如Google也看好數位家庭未來發展，2009年推出家庭用電監控平台Power Meter；2010年與Intel合作推出Google TV；2011年在I／O年會提出Android@Home計畫。然而，受限於網路基礎環境尚未成熟、廠商各擁自有標準、產品互通性不足，以及消費者習慣不易改變等情況下，數位家庭計畫推動並不順利。Intel因而在2011年組織調整，關閉數位家庭部門，結束生產電視晶片。 智慧家庭仍吸引各方業者競逐 數位家庭計畫雖未能如大廠期待在短期內開花結果，或由任何一方主導產業發展，但隨著網路環境、主要壓縮格式與傳輸技術成熟，部分概念已逐漸落實，如影音內容跨產品分享。廠商們仍舊看好家庭領域未來成長潛力，不同的是以「智慧家庭」取代「數位家庭」，並呼應行動智慧裝置的普及，在產品概念上，更強調「感測」、「智慧控制」與「雲端服務」等特性。 在2014年美國消費性電子展（CES）中，韓廠Samsung與LG接力日系家電大廠，推出智慧家庭自有整合平台。Samsung推出Smart Home Service Platform採用開放式平台架構，提供遠端操控、監看與智慧化售後服務等功能，並開
