Abstract—Home automation is transforming homes with smart devices. Key business strategies are intertwined with challenges and opportunities that drive current research. However, considering the key research gaps, the objective is to examine the research trends in the positioning and commercialization strategies of home automation products in the global market. The study adopts an exploratory approach to analyze global home automation strategies. The bibliometric analysis based on PRISMA-2020 examines the trends, gaps and contributions of previous positioning and marketing research. This bibliometric analysis provides insightful insights into global home automation product marketing and positioning strategies. The interest marked in 2017, 2020 and 2021 stands out and reflects its validity. The literature is experiencing exponential growth, highlighting its relevance in the market. Authors such as Liu Y lead in productivity and impact, while Hauxwell-Baldwin R, Hargreaves T and Wilson C make significant contributions. Topical development reflects adaptation to emerging trends such as stochastic programming and the Internet of Things. Keyword ranking provides important tools for a changing industry. Taken together, this analysis provides valuable guidance for industry and research to drive informed strategies.
