Abstract

With the rapid advancement of IoT technologies, the smart home market has emerged as a crucial application domain within the IoT ecosystem. This study develops a theoretical framework employing SEM grounded in TAM and UTAUT, designed specifically to assess users' acceptance of smart home technologies. Core determinants, such as perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, social influence, and perceived risk, are systematically identified, and corresponding hypotheses and measurement scales are proposed. The study further outlines a theoretical model designed to elucidate the intricate mechanisms underlying user acceptance intentions. Methodologically, this research contributes an integrated and comprehensive conceptual framework, blending TAM and UTAUT, thus providing a robust theoretical foundation and methodological roadmap for subsequent empirical research in this domain.
