In the process of building a smart home , the Internet of Things is an area that has to be mentioned. Only by connecting those isolated home appliances and household products to each other can the functions that smart homes want to bring to people.
Popularization of knowledge
As mentioned in an encyclopedia, the definition of the Internet of Things was originally proposed in 1999, through the transmission of information such as radio frequency identification (RFID) (RFID + Internet), infrared sensors, global positioning systems, laser scanners, gas sensors, etc. Sensing device, a network that connects any item to the Internet according to a contracted agreement, exchanges information and communicates to realize intelligent identification, location, tracking, monitoring and management. In short, the Internet of Things is the Internet of Things.
These theoretical concepts, please do not know how to correctly and comprehensively interpret, Xiaobian can only boldly understand their own understanding of the Internet of Things and smart home.
Smart home needs Internet of Things
Smart home is one of the important application methods of the domestic Internet of Things. Using networks or other forms of connection, sensors, controllers, machines and people are connected in a new way to form the interconnection of people, things and things. Realize the transmission of information and remote control.
To give a few simple examples, the intelligent lighting system can realize the operation commands of turning on and off the lights through the smart phone; the smart security can let the outgoing users view the home situation in real time through the smart phone, and even some products with infrared function. The user can be alerted when other life activities are sensed during the time period set by the user. These kinds of things also need the support of the Internet of Things.
The above functions are more related to the interconnection of people and devices, and the interconnection of objects and objects requires the use of sensors. For example, the intelligent thermostat uses sensors to collect data such as temperature and humidity in the home, and transmits it to the background to analyze whether the home environment is in the ideal value that the user wants. If the user's requirements are not met, the air conditioner can be automatically turned on to adjust the home environment.
This mode realizes the most beautiful smart home scene imagined by people, and everything can be achieved without the user's operation, but by the independent control of the equipment. All this needs to thank the Internet of Things for help.
However, the Internet of Things itself has its own weaknesses.
1. Security of the Internet of Things
The core and foundation of the Internet of Things is still the Internet. It is an extended and extended network based on the Internet. Therefore, security issues are still the most important concern of people.
In the previous article, Xiaobian mentioned that the intelligent surveillance camera has become a "privacy killer" around some users. Such an incident will definitely cause consumers to doubt the product. Security issues are the bottom line for every industry. In addition to users paying attention to their own usage, vendors must also take responsibility for protecting user privacy.
In the era of big data, many user data and home conditions will be stored in the cloud. In addition to facilitating users to view it themselves, some data will become the basis for manufacturers to analyze and improve their products. While using user data, how to protect these data for users, so that users can be assured, is the defense line that enterprises need to guard.
2. The bottleneck of the Internet of Things
The "bottleneck" mentioned here by Xiaobian is actually an old-fashioned topic, that is, how to achieve real object interconnection.
The network we use is a bridge that enables independent devices to communicate with each other, and the Internet of Things is now separated by different devices. Anyone who knows a little about smart homes will know that many companies in the smart home field are doing their own platforms. They want users to connect their smart products in series through their own platforms. But let us see the fact that we can have one smart product after another under one platform, but the smart products that users want may not be on the same platform. As a user, I may not want to be confined to a certain platform, but I hope that as long as I want the smart home products , I can connect them.
Therefore, it is not difficult to see that the Internet of Things that are too closed can not truly achieve the interconnection of all things. How to open the current situation of the Internet of Things may be worthy of serious consideration by enterprises.
Conclusion
The Internet of Things is indeed indispensable in smart homes, so the Internet of Things without a unified standard will affect the development of smart homes.
The construction of the smart home platform is the layout of the enterprise's own product market, but it is not completely considered from the perspective of the user. There must be some mistakes. It is imperative to break through the bottleneck of the Internet of Things. Only the real connection of things can create the products that are most needed by the market.
