Recently, a commercial intelligent automatic cooking machine appeared on the site of the Shanghai Fair.
The on-site staff used the machine to fry a variety of foods and attracted the audience to taste.
After 80 years, Mr. Liu, a Beijing citizen, recently renovated his house. In order to catch up with the trend, he installed a number of smart homes for his new home: Smart TVs that can be remotely controlled by mobile phones, smart door locks, and smart air purifiers that can use voice switches. Smart air-conditioning... I would like to look forward to experiencing the convenience and comfort brought by 'black technology'. After a while, he discovered that in fact, life is not much more convenient than just pressing a remote control and another remote control. Out of the phone, click on software one after another. 'Feels like I've been 'conceptualized'. ' He spoke to reporters.
Depend on the concept of 'walking the lake'
The living scene of 'smart home' is indeed embarrassing, and the 'future concept' has brought fire to the market and promoted the development of the entire industry chain. Traditional home appliance manufacturers such as Haier, Midea, Gree, and TCL have been in full swing several years ago. Accelerating the intelligent transformation, the emerging Internet companies Xiaomi, Alibaba, JD.com, etc. have also launched a variety of smart home appliances or smart home platforms in an attempt to occupy the entrance to smart living. However, the performance of the entire market is not satisfactory. It seems that products Still in the stage of 'low IQ', the concept is difficult to land, and some are even 'false intelligence'.
'My home's smart door lock is a switch that uses a cell phone to control the door. At the very beginning, I found it quite novel. Later I used it. When I found it wrong, I went to the door of my house. I took out my cell phone and clicked the key to open the door. There is no intelligence, and there is a risk of being hacked. 'Mr. Liu also said that his home's TVs and washing machines all have voice operation functions, but they can't recognize his mother's instructions. 'Now Smart products are more useful than gimmicks. At the beginning, it is easy for people to be surrounded by concepts, but it is actually overdrawing consumer interest and confidence. 'Mr. Liu told reporters.
'Intelligence' is the trend of future products, and it has become a marketing gimmick. At this year's International Consumer Electronics Show, there are many 'eye-opening' products: $5625 voice smart flush The toilet, a smart stack of clothes robots priced at $16,000, claims to be able to operate smart home speakers in all smart homes... Some netizens call out: 'Poverty limits my imagination.'
Consumers are not so easy to be 'fudged'. Experts say that this kind of fictitious 'false intelligence' cannot impress users, and ultimately harm the reputation of the entire industry and consumer confidence.
No standard is difficult to be compatible
Every smart home product needs to use mobile phone software of its own brand manufacturer, which exposes the problem of lagging or even missing of the artificial intelligence standardization system. This has affected the application of technology and the creation of industrial chains, and has become an industry pain point.
According to the reporter's understanding, there are widespread incompatibility issues in smart home appliance products on the market. Each product has its own mobile client. Smart product manufacturers are fighting each other. Everyone wants to use their own technical standards and are not willing to compromise with each other. The Haier’s “U+” smart living platform has been well-designed and passed the international certification of information security system to provide standard interfaces. However, because other manufacturers are unwilling to cooperate, this platform is still an empty stage. 'Integration' Scattered into their own battle.
The real intelligence is obviously not the accumulation of smart hardware controlled by multiple mobile phone applications. If a family of so-called smart appliances adopts different standards and cannot communicate with each other, then it is not truly 'Chinese intellectual creation'. According to analysts from the industry, currently, due to the lack of a standardized system in the artificial intelligence industry, although the technological content of new artificial intelligence products continues to grow, it is difficult to achieve interoperability between brands, and users cannot experience the convenience of intelligence. There is an urgent need to formulate a unified national level. specification.
At the same time, there is also a lack of quantifiable enforcement standards for the identification of 'intelligent'. Take intelligent sweeping robots, which are currently very popular, although at present domestic countries have established corresponding national and industrial standards for performance testing methods for sweeping robots, but also Limited to quality or not, there is no quantitative requirement for sample quality. Many smart sweeping robots on the market are advertised with path planning, intelligence, ultrasonics, anti-dropping, sweeping and other functions. Actual results and claims can still exist. Big difference.
Ingenious mention of 'IQ'
Chairman of the Gree Electric Appliance Co., Dong Mingzhu, once talked about such a story in Shenzhen. Once she went to South Africa, Brazil and other places to expand business. The other party told her that Gree air-conditioning is good, but unfortunately it is 'Chinese intellectual creation'. Dong Mingzhu asks: What's wrong with 'China Zhizhi'?' The other party replied: ' 'China Zhizhi' quality is not acceptable.'
In recent years, the Chinese have gathered to go to Japan to buy toilet lids and rice cookers. In China's huge market, hundreds of billions of dollars of consumer funds have been lost overseas. 'What did our entrepreneurs do? What are our responsibilities?' Dong Mingzhu recounted , 'Everyone must have a spirit of craftsmanship, we can create a first-class product, in order to be recognized by consumers in this society, Chinese companies have the core competitiveness.'
The data shows that the market size of China's smart manufacturing equipment industry has exceeded 1.5 trillion yuan in 2017, and this number is still growing rapidly. To stand out from the global competition, we must master key technologies, improve product 'IQ,' product quality.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has issued relevant policies and decided to focus on smart home appliances, wearable devices, industrial robots, high-end CNC machine tools, domestic large aircrafts, etc. to speed up the elimination of quality bottlenecks. When China’s 'black technology' becomes 'true wisdom', With core competence.
