IoT home sensors, with their real-time ability to aid in maintaining a healthy home, are making a difference in residential safety. This is being demonstrated in the UK’s social housing system designed to provide an affordable and stable option to people across the country but not necessarily the silver bullet many had hoped it would be. Rents tied to local incomes may seem much more manageable but having four walls and a roof overhead is only part of the solution. Renters still have related living expenses to consider, including utilities like water, electricity, and heat. Decisions around these and other bills can produce their own set of issues, causing some tenants to get ‘creative’ or tight-fisted with their spending. And leave them vulnerable to less-than-adequate living conditions, says Kjell Karlsson, managing director, connectivity, TT Electronics.
