HC Internet of Things News "Smart Home" at first glance is an easy-to-understand term. In recent years, it has become more and more common in news or on the Internet. But if you ask "What is smart home?" All answered.
Well, when you wake up in the morning, the curtains will open automatically and the coffee machine will work automatically. Does the light change the brightness with the sunlight coming in from the window? Can I control all my home appliances with my mobile phone? Is the size of the business at home all done by robots?
What is smart home, can you eat?
Anyway, high-end atmosphere, avant-garde technology (?).
At the end of 2016, Facebook founder and current CEO Mark Zuckerberg gave a video introducing the virtual assistant Jarvis. In addition to finding the voice of God, Morgan Freeman dubbed Jarvis, the film left the most impressive impression on most people's brains, probably nothing more than the T-shirt cannon in the closet, and each An instruction that can be done with voice control.
Is the so-called "smart home" like this? Awesome equipment like a T-shirt cannon? Is there a voice assistant at home? The lens outside the gate is matched with face recognition?
In fact, the term "SmartHome" is still not strictly defined. The Encyclopedia's "Smart Home" entry says:
Smarthome combines the Internet, automatic control, sensors and other technologies to integrate various devices and central management systems in the home to facilitate building automation. Under the rapid development of the above-mentioned technologies, the Internet connected from the current "people-to-people" has gradually become the Internet of Things connected with "people and things" or "objects and things", and the Internet of Things is fast in the application of the family. Development has also made smart homes appear frequently in major media formats, and has become a familiar term for people.
At present, the titles of smart homes are diverse and diverse, such as digital home, home automation, e-Home, etc., and the scope of services is slightly different. Smart home is the node of intelligent building and the foundation of smart city application. Although the Internet of Things is connected with objects, but the object of service is still human, the definition of smart home must be all-encompassing and there is no unified statement.
Smart homes do not have a clear scope. As technology advances and services are horizontally connected, smart homes cover a wider range, such as clothing, food, housing, transportation, education, music, health, medical services, etc. Can be included. Newcomers can redefine the boundaries of smart homes as long as they can design services that solve human life problems.
SmartHome, also known as HomeAutomation, Digital Home, or e-home, also has a new word domotics called in English. Simply put, technology is used to make life more convenient and comfortable. Although there is no uniform regulation, it is generally composed of electrical appliances that can be connected to the network. The more famous networked appliances are Philips Hue.
The film looks cool, but people often have a question - yes, I know this looks super handsome, but why do I need a light bulb that can be connected to the Internet?
All smart home appliances are actually facing the same questions of the public – why do I need to connect my lights, extension cords, washing machines, air conditioners, and refrigerators to the Internet?
The current home appliances are used well, and the connected home appliances are particularly expensive. It seems that there is no incentive for everyone to choose smart home appliances.
From the purchase of a single smart home appliance to the creation of the entire smart home, it is actually a long-term process. A light bulb that can change color and brightness does not seem to have any practical properties. A brightness sensor seems to be very common, but when the two are combined, you can dim or turn off the light bulb when the sun is sufficient. The purpose of energy saving; when the sun sinks and the night falls, the lights of the living room are illuminated before the owner returns home, and the outsiders are not allowed to know the facts of no one in the house to ensure the safety of home.
As long as one sensor and one light bulb can have such an application, how many interesting applications and combinations can be combined with more electrical appliances and devices?
The temperature and humidity sensor plus air conditioning system automatically adjusts the temperature in the home. It can also automatically turn on the dehumidifier when the humidity is too high, or use a virtual assistant like Jarvis or Siri to manually adjust the system with an APP or other instructions.
Every day after work, I have to work hard to get to work. I have to go home to start cooking. I have to think about what to cook. But if I can pre-arrange, put rice and water in the morning before going out in the morning. When the time is up, I will start cooking. When you get home, you will have cooked white rice, plus the food management and recipe recommendation system. You don't have to worry about having food to expire, and you don't have to think about what you should cook.
When all the home appliances are connected to the network and cooperate with each other, life can be more convenient and comfortable, and even save electricity and energy - saving time and water and saving electricity is saving money!
Imagine the life of smart home appliances, the vision seems to be very good, but what about the price? Networked appliances are always very expensive!
I don't know if you have heard of "Moore's Law." The idea is that every 18 months, the performance of the chip can be doubled - this is why a new generation of electronic products will appear every one to two years, the price is similar to the previous generation, but the performance has doubled!
With the passage of time and technological advancement, the performance of the chip is getting stronger and stronger, and the cost is getting lower and lower. In the past, there may be a sky-high networking device, which became “a bit expensive†in modern times, and in the future, the price will become Being close to the people, becoming a product that the public can afford, let smart home appliances change from "things that only rich people or technology houses can play" to "everyone can afford", so that "smart home" is no longer just a vision, but It is the normal state.
Mobile devices, networks, smart homes, many new terms, new technologies, and many silver-haired people seem to be far away. In the case that many seniors may not even use the mobile phone, what can technology do for the silver-haired family? SoftBank offers a very interesting solution in this advertisement: by modifying the existing devices in your home, you can intelligentize your home without changing your habits.
Although SoftBank said it has no plans to mass produce this set of concept products, this advertisement still enriches our imagination of “smart home†– home intelligence, automation, application of various technologies, technology, integration of various imaginations, sometimes we I feel very far away. In fact, everything else, the ultimate core is still returning to "people."
