标准和认证在智能家居领域发挥着截然不同但又相辅相成的作用。标准为智能家居产品的安全性、可靠性和互操作性确立了基本准则，而认证则通过严格的测试和评估来验证合规性。
UL 标准与参与组织开展的研究揭示了这一标准制定和后续认证框架如何建立消费者信任并促进企业创新。
Certifications also resonate with consumers — nearly half of U.S. consumers recognize certification marks as indicators of safety and quality. These findings emerge from a comprehensive study combining surveys conducted in November 2024 of 2,021 U.S. consumers and 176 consumer technology industry leaders.
This report summarizes the findings of this UL Standards & Engagement research study.
