New Delhi, May 10 (ANI): American electronic commerce company Amazon teamed up with home construction and real estate company Lennar to set up model "smart" homes across the United States for shoppers to experience its voice assistant Alexa. Aside from finding good tunes, Amazon wants people to know, Alexa can also do things like dimming lights, turning on TV, and locking doors. Amazon's smart homes are now open near 15 big cities, including Los Angeles, Dallas, and Washington, with more to come. The global smart home market is expected to reach $107 billion by 2023 according to market research firm ReportLinker.
