In fact, IoT is already creeping into your life, uniting all smart everything into one network.
It has greatly facilitated people's lives by connecting everything in your home to the Internet, cars, road traffic, and everything else you can imagine.
For example, if you walk down the road and pick up your cell phone, you can use your cell phone to control your rice cooker to make a good meal, your water heater to boil hot water, and you can use your cell phone to know the traffic conditions on the road when you go out.
Doesn't it sound familiar, in fact, it has quietly entered into your life, just that you haven't noticed it.
The Internet of Things (IoT) involves a wide range of fields, and is really affecting people's daily lives: cloud TV, IoT air conditioning, IoT refrigerators, and so on.
It improves people's quality of life and brings great convenience.
So in recent years, many countries and regions have attached great importance to the study of IoT.
It is right to ask when IoT will be popularized for all!
Because it has come into our lives!
Usually you touch a button on your computer or cell phone, and even if you're thousands of miles away, you'll be able to learn about the status of a certain item, or the activities of a certain person. Send a text message, you can turn on the fan; if someone illegally invades your home, you will also receive an automatic phone alarm. Such a smart scene, is not Hollywood science fiction blockbusters only have the situation, the Internet of Things is approaching our lives.
The realization of all this is because the "Internet of Things" has a key technology to store object information called radio frequency identification (RFID). For example, in the cell phone embedded RFID-SIM card, cell phone within the "information sensing equipment" can be connected to the mobile network, this phone, not only can confirm the user's identity, but also to pay the fees, book a visit, realize the query and pay cell phone bills, water, electricity and gas bill payment, lottery betting, airline booking and many other payment services. The phone can also be used to pay mobile phone bills, utility bills, lottery betting, airline reservations and other payment services.
As you can see, the "Internet of Things" has an extremely wide range of applications in personal health, smart grid, public **** transportation, and so on. As long as the specific object embedded radio frequency tags, sensors and other equipment, connected to the Internet, you can form a huge networking system, in the network, even if thousands of miles away, people can easily know and control the object of the information.
Some experts predict that within 10 years, the Internet of Things could become massively popular and develop into a trillion-dollar high-tech market. By that time, the Internet of Things will play a role in almost all areas of personal health, transportation control, environmental protection, public **** safety, safe home, smart fire, industrial monitoring, elderly care, and so on. Some experts say that only three to five years, the Internet of Things will enter the full range of people's lives, changing the way people live.
The Internet of Things is a hot topic in recent years, in fact, from the beginning of the concept of the Internet of Things in China, there have been many industry leaders to explore the relevant practical applications. The development of the Internet of Things should also take the Internet when the development of the route: the conceptual stage, feel the pilot stage, R & D promotion stage, the application of the outbreak of the stage, the normal innovation stage. At present, the Internet of Things is mainly in the pilot stage to the R & D promotion stage of excessive, each stage of the progress is through the generation of new technologies and new methods to solve the old problems of the process. At this stage, ordinary people are also participating in it, such as smart refrigerators, air conditioners, power switches, etc., are excessive products and items in the IoT exploratory pilot stage. In the future, with the emergence of 5G technology and more advanced communication and network technology, there is no doubt that the Internet of Things will rapidly enter the application explosion stage. This is the inevitable trend of the development and progress of social intelligence, for artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things and other emerging needs will show exponential growth, so the Internet of Things completely go to the common people's home scene is the future can be expected, in the near future ah.
From artificial intelligence robots, driverless cars to a variety of smart hardware, the Internet of Things is all over the place. People are talking about the magic of the Internet of Things at the same time, but found that it is both familiar and strange.
"5G is ready to go, and large-scale IoT applications will be one of the 5G application scenarios." In the recently held "Double Creation 1 +1" into the university series of theme salon, Wu Hequan, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said that the Internet of Things and big data, intelligence, mobile Internet, cloud computing accompanied by the development of the market will be more broad.
The Internet of Everything era is coming, the future of the Internet of Things and what will it look like? What are the obstacles to the Internet of Things into the daily life of ordinary people?
Wearable devices expand the application of the Internet of Things
Wearable devices such as tracking devices, smart watches, smart glasses, and embedded sensors in clothes are gradually coming into the public's field of vision and changing people's lifestyles. Wu Hequan said, wearable devices to expand the application of the Internet of Things.
A tennis player, the racket has an acceleration sensor, you can monitor the vibration and other conditions; wrist can wear bracelets, watches, intelligent rings, dynamic recording of the amount of exercise, check the weather, monitor the pulse, etc.; wearing a polo shirt under the chest an sensor, you can always record the body's changing conditions, such as skin moisture loss, etc.... ... loaded with high-tech sports painting style appeared in front of the eyes.
Imagine this is the future of life scene, is not it cool? Due to the birth of mobile Internet, software, cloud computing technology, wearable devices came into being. Wu Hequan introduced, as a representative of Google Glass launched the market ushered in two real problems: the first is the cost, we are not all affordable; the second is the application, this application is not just need.
In the face of the huge market potential, Apple, Alibaba, Motorola and other companies have begun to gold in the field of smart wearable devices. The introduction of smart bracelets and wristwatches has brought the public's attention to sports and health, and compared to the high price of thousands of dollars, Xiaomi's bracelets have quickly taken over half of the Chinese market at a price of 79 dollars. From the market feedback, cost-effective wearable devices have become the current point of strength.
In addition to reducing costs through technological transformation and upgrading, Wu Hequan said that the development of wearable devices now also exists a misunderstanding, the development of many applications is not just a need. But this seems to be a strange circle, if you can not find the market, the scale does not go up, the cost can not come down, "in the final analysis, or demand-driven problem."
The China Institute of Information and Communication Research released the "Wearable Devices Research Report" shows that from 2016, some of the vertical areas of the huge potential will begin to release, the wearable market will formally enter the start-up period, it is expected that in 2016 the wearable market size will reach 20 billion yuan.
The Internet of Things "fragmentation" has become an obstacle to the connection of life
From the concept of technology development to the application of products, the Internet of Things has always "looked beautiful". Wu Hequan said, the reason why the development of the Internet of Things is not as good as imagined, one of the important reasons is "fragmentation", hindering the Internet of Things and the effective connection of daily life.
In fact, "fragmentation" is the "nature" of the Internet of Things. "Sensors are diverse, there are physical sensors, chemical sensors, biological sensors, and even the same physical sensors are also diverse, it is impossible to have a universal sensor for all areas." Wu Hequan said.
In addition, he also talked about the Internet of Things in the technical level of the basic use of integrated circuit technology, can not be directly produced through the traditional process, but also lead to the cost is not easy to control. "Integrated circuit technology is supported by scale, but it is more difficult than the general robotics circuit. Because it involves the conversion of physical quantities, the conversion of electricity, the conversion of chemical quantities, the conversion of biological quantities, and these conversions involve a variety of technologies such as chemical, physical, biological and so on."
Wu attributes the third reason for fragmentation to the threshold between industries. "The application of IoT is industry-oriented, and every industry has a threshold, not with sensors can be linked into a network, the key is to generate value-added through the use of IoT."
"The statistical boundaries of the Internet of Things industry are not clear, what counts as the Internet of Things, what does not count as the Internet of Things, and some figures are not credible." Wu Hequan is both alert and full of expectations. "With the emergence of mobile Internet, big data, artificial intelligence, the Internet of things from the perception level to the level of analysis and decision-making. Without changing the cost of sensors, the cost of IoT can still be reduced in the future due to the added value, and the application is promising."
Let's start with a historical perspective of development.
The Internet took about 20 years from its birth in the 90s to its true popularization with the masses and commercial impact around 2010.
The beginning of the mobile internet can be seen from the iPhone 4 in 2009 as a starting point, and now in 2019 cell phones have become an integral part of our lives, and mobile payments have made our lives so much easier, not to mention the fact that I'm now sitting in my neighborhood brushing my jitterbugs and answering questions.
Besides, the Internet of Things, to put it simply, is to connect everything in your life to the Internet, which requires extremely high network speeds and extremely low latency, 5G just meets this point, so 2019 as the first year of 5G commercialization, according to the previous speed, then 2024 or 2025 will give birth to a number of applications, platforms and so on that have a significant impact on human life, as well as a new era of great enterprises.
The Internet of Things (IoT), has long since penetrated into our lives and can be seen everywhere, take the cell phones and computers you use now, which essentially also belong to the category of IoT.
At home, your smart home devices, such as air purifiers, curtains, air conditioners, refrigerators, smart speakers can be accessed to the network, and can be controlled by your phone; in the bus and subway, you can see the monitoring probes (video network), and can get the location of the vehicle in real time (GPS module); to go to work to beat the clock, with the time and attendance machine, including fingerprints and face recognition and other types of, but also access to the LAN. LAN; Internet of Things, especially in the car network, logistics network, environmental monitoring, security monitoring, smart city, e-government, urban management law enforcement, smart campus / classroom, medical and other aspects of the application is very broad.
I believe it will be very soon, in fact, now there are some products are also the type of Internet of Things! Such as millet under those smart furniture, household appliances. Combined to a piece is the Internet of Things.
Waiting for the popularization of 5G will see a variety of industries in all walks of life, industrial interaction interconnection on the basis of the Internet, all linked up is the Internet of Things. I believe that the next 3.5 years will be an era of Internet of Things blowout! So it's very, very close to the lives of ordinary people!
The Internet of Things, has long been deep into our lives, and can be seen everywhere, take your current use of cell phones, computers, essentially also belongs to the category of the Internet of Things.
At home, your smart home devices, such as air purifiers, curtains, air conditioners, refrigerators, smart speakers can be accessed to the network, and can be controlled by your phone; in the bus and subway, you can see the monitoring probes (video network), and can get the location of the vehicle in real time (GPS module); to go to work to beat the clock, with the time and attendance machine, including fingerprints and face recognition and other types of, but also access to the LAN. LAN; Internet of Things, especially in the car network, logistics network, environmental monitoring, security monitoring, smart city, e-government, city management law enforcement, smart campus / classroom, medical and other aspects, the application is very wide.
Don't think too highly of the Internet of Things, not AI robot export run, only called the Internet of Things.
Home cameras, door locks, WIFI, smart switches, connecting wifi refrigerator, pressure cooker ...
These have been out for several years, and many ordinary families have them, but just not composed of a unified network, and shown in front of you via a unified interface. There are technical issues, vendor issues, and issues of necessity in real-world application scenarios.
For example, the core problem of door locks is to solve your authorization problem. Previously, who has the key who is authorized, and with the soldier tiger is the same. The emergence of smart locks have passwords and biometric authentication (fingerprints, voiceprints, face, etc.), these belong to you as an independent individual on the authorization verification method, that is, convenient and safe.
But there is an interesting logic that technology brings convenience and security while bringing new inconvenience and insecurity.
One inconvenience - power dependency and network dependency. You use batteries, means that you have to change the batteries later, you access to the power grid means that you are afraid of power outages. You want face, voiceprint, you want cell phone management, you have to be connected to the network, network problems, you have to rest.
Second, insecurity - not to consider the security of the lock itself is constructed, networking after the security of personal privacy, it is exposed (a big brother said, the Chinese people are willing to sacrifice privacy in exchange for services and convenience).
There's a lot of talk early in the morning about smart locks as the best entry point to the Internet of Things in the home to do a discussion about the Internet of Things.
The Internet of Things now has a lot of companies doing, the market is huge. But there is no outbreak, there is no real leading industry, very much related to network speed. Now the 5g industry is developing perfect, I believe you also more or less understand the network speed of 5g, and so 5g perfect, I believe that the Internet of Things industry is not far away from the outbreak, it is estimated that one or two years to start explosive growth
