With the release of the fourth-generation smart system at 2018AWE, Midea Refrigerator achieved a continuous iterative upgrade from i+1.0 to i+4.0. The new AI smart refrigerator equipped with the i+4.0 system emerged as the global leader in ALLINSIDE. The two core advantages of fresh space and AI intelligent gourmet stewards lead the refrigerator industry into the era of AI intelligence.
Mei Jiang’s refrigerator division Dian Jiang concluded that the US refrigerator i+1.0 solves the problem of device networking, followed by manual remote control and mobile phone-based mobile Internet device function services to the i+4.0 release. At present, Midea’s refrigerators have completely separated from the intermediate media and realized direct interaction between humans and computers. This is a leap-forward development in the field of intelligent refrigerators. Based on this, the refrigerators in the United States have redefined the products carrying the i+4.0 system as AI. Smart refrigerator.

After the era of APP, what can AI bring?
The first problem we solved through AI was to get structural information on the ingredients in the refrigerator. This step is very difficult because we have to eliminate the non-AI user experience such as manual input or voice control in the traditional APP era. However, through image recognition, the type, quantity, time of input, and other structured information input of ingredients are completed. Only when data collection is complete, can we talk about follow-up food ingredients management and services. ' Dai Jiang said, AI has more excellent interaction capabilities than the early-stage intelligent APP control. It provides users with more accurate, timely and diversified services through real-time communication between the refrigerator data and user data.
Take fault repair as an example. In the past, maintenance personnel could only rely on the user's description of the user to determine the possible problems of the refrigerator. This feedback has a strong human perception, is general and blurred, and now passes the data of all sensors in the refrigerator. For long-term analysis and judgment, before maintenance personnel come to the door, the AI system has been used to understand the fault location and maintenance program, and to improve the success rate of the user's problem at the first visit.
The i+ intelligent system on the AI Smart Fridge is also a platform for Midea's intelligent continuous iteration. 'Dai Jiang revealed that around the second quarter of this year, Midea's refrigerators will push i+ 4.0 systems for new and existing users. All models that can support the new system are Can be upgraded. 'We want users to feel that what they are buying is a device that can continuously upgrade and bring more and possibilities. In the future we will focus on local smart, interactive intelligence, smart scene, and ecology. The five major areas of intelligentization and service intelligence are constantly being upgraded, opening up new ways of direct human-computer interaction in the post-APP era, allowing technological innovation to truly facilitate the lives of users, and responding to user concerns with intelligent solutions.
Although Midea Refrigerator has already taken a crucial step on the AI smart refrigerator, Dai Jiang also frankly stated that the idealized user service is characterized by precision and can provide users with the services he wants at any time, anywhere, AI Smart Refrigerator. Efforts are being made in this direction, but judging from the current level of technology, there is still a considerable gap between idealization and AI. There is still a long way to go for AI.
World's First Food Smart Ecology Alliance Helps
'In order to further enhance the user experience of the AI smart refrigerator, we must abandon the unreasonable interaction modes of mobile phone APP or remote control, routers, etc. to provide users with the most relaxed and enjoyable and efficient and interesting control methods, such as millisecond image recognition, 5m remote voice control, food delivery service, recipe customization, etc., all require the support of partners. ' Dai Jiang proposed that every improvement of the user experience requires a lot of back-end technology, content and service provider support. Midea Refrigerator combined with Intel, Baidu, Fresh Fruit, Palm Chef and others to create the world's first gourmet smart ecological alliance.
Wang Zhicong, the managing director of Intel's sales and marketing department in China, stated that Intel has always wanted to integrate a powerful computing platform into its living environment. This combination with Midea's refrigerator has created a brand new category. AI smart refrigerators cannot be simply defined as It is a traditional technology product that is not a traditional household electrical appliance product. It is a brand-new smart category that has been bred by many parties. The future will affect the smart lifestyle of consumers.
ECO Fresh can use AI smart refrigerator as a brand-new consumption scene to receive a scene-like trigger or user to send interactive instructions to its order store to achieve the fastest delivery of what users need within one hour.
The U.S. refrigerator creates a smart refrigerator system that encompasses three cores. The first is the linkage of the refrigerators. The second is based on the upstream and downstream tandem of the whole ecological chain of the family diet. The third is based on the management of human nutrition and health. A large number of companies like Fresh Era need to provide fast and high-quality ingredients. Content providers like palm chefs provide users with professional health cooking advice and health management methods. ' Dai Jiang stressed that through such an alliance and cooperation , The application scene or consumer experience will have a tremendous improvement. It will truly make the user's life more intelligent and technological. In the future, the US refrigerator will also introduce more partners to bring better experience and more to the user. good service.
According to Dai Jiang’s interpretation of Midea’s intelligent layout of refrigerators, it clearly defines refrigerators as very important smart appliances in the family. It should not be limited to extending the single function of food preservation period, but it should be used as a family. Smart Kitchen, a key node in the smart diet ecosystem, is being built. With the launch of the AI Smart Refrigerator, the user is getting closer to the future of smart appliances. In the future, there will be more innovative experiences that will make users feel beautiful. Refrigerator brings technology sincerity.
