Many experts agree that the mobile market will continue to expand in the coming year, but there is significant debate surrounding what revenues will actually look like. A recent Investors.com report explained that views on mobile revenue for 2013 are varied, with some experts predicting moderate growth, while others expect a decline. However, the rise of mobile security solutions for access control and home automation could play a major role in creating revenue opportunities.

The news source explained that a lot of the debate surrounding mobile revenue potential stems from the fact that different organizations measure profits in different ways depending on their perspective on how mobile companies handle their service options. As a result, it can be difficult to accurately anticipate revenue opportunities.

However, many experts do agree that the home automation and security sectors could contribute to considerable revenue opportunities in the mobile market, especially as emerging technologies enable improved security options.

Mobile devices are widely believed to be a major driver in the access control and security markets because they allow for a unique combination of convenience and sophistication. As a result, they are particularly attractive for consumers who want to protect their homes, but do not want to deal with overly complex lock systems.
