초록

사물인터넷환경에서의 스마트 홈은 가정안에서의 모든 기기들이 서로 연결되어 사용자에 최적의 생활환경을 제공함을 목표로 한다. 이러한 스마트 홈 환경에서 모든 기기들을 관리, 제어할 수 있는 방법으로 인공지능 스피커가 사용되고 있다. 기존의 스피커 기능이 단순한 음악재생에서 스마트 홈 공간에 존재하는 모든 기기들을 제어, 관리하는 인터페이스의 역할로 전환되고 있는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 인공지능 스피커의 선두 주자인 미국 및 국내의 시장 현황 및 활용성 분석 내용을 다루었다. 주요 대상 기업으로는 미국의 아마존, 구글, 애플등을 비롯하여 국내의 kakao, SKT, KT등을 대상으로 하였다. 또한 인공지능 스피커에 대한 국내 사용자들의 반응 결과를 토대로 주요 문제점에 대한 도출 및 개선 방안등에 대해 기술하였다.

Smart home in the Internet of Things (IoT) environment aims to provide an optimal living environment for users by connecting all devices in the home. In such a smart home environment, artificial intelligence speakers are being used as a way to manage and control all devices. The existing speaker function is changing from simple music playback to the role of an interface that controls and manages all devices in the smart home space. This study dealt with the market status and usability analysis in the US and Korea, the leader in artificial intelligence speakers. The main target companies were Amazon, Google, and Apple in the US, as well as Kakao, SKT, and KT in Korea. In addition, based on the reaction results of domestic users to artificial intelligence speakers, the derivation of major problems and directions for improvement were described.
