fifth generation of cellular communications. The question does arise, however: how will 5G support what are (at the time of writing) only prospective commercial smart devices? To revisit the earlier discussion of defining a smart home, consider once more that the term ‘smart’ hinges on how much automation is offered by the user’s domestic devices. In view of this, perhaps the future of the 5G-connected smart home will involve commercial home robots that offer users a level of home automation [6] that cannot be realised by even the most efficient smart devices on the market today.
