HC Security Network news capital is the most sensitive weathervane, artificial intelligence investment companies are increasing year by year. According to CBInsights statistics, 61 artificial intelligence companies were financing in 2010. By 2016, 522 artificial intelligence startups got financing; the investment amount soared from the original $81 million to $3.12 billion.

Nowadays, whether it is the needs of consumers or the focus of the capital market, artificial intelligence is gradually becoming the most representative industrial development direction. The smart home market has entered the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, and each of them has a big melee. The arrival of the artificial intelligence wave will undoubtedly bring new hope to the smart home industry.

"Alpha Dog" can make smart homes rich in money in addition to playing chess.

Smart home status

Going home after work, or getting up in the middle of the night in the toilet, you are trying to unlock the phone and click on the APP to turn on the light, or press the switch directly? Although it is a joke, it is basically clearing the current status of various smart home products.

The smart home gives us a good will. In the morning, when you wake up from your sleep, your favorite music rings, the curtains are slowly opened, the air conditioner is automatically adjusted to the appropriate temperature and humidity, and the bread machine, coffee machine and kettle are automatically Start to prepare a delicious breakfast for you, dishwasher to help you clean the pot, sweeper to help you clean up the garbage, you go to work happily, the door lock automatically opens and closes, the home appliances are all closed, intelligent security system Open, report to you at home anytime, return home at night, door locks and lights automatically turn on, TV, air conditioning, air purifiers open... This is not a dream home!

But what is the current status of smart homes? Most of the smart products on the market still stay in the remote control and timing stages. For example, to turn on the lights, you need to pull out the phone, open the app, find the light you want to turn on, and touch it to open. Is it really not so convenient? And different brands of smart home products can not control each other, so you have to control the home appliances, you also need to open a different APP ... This is unacceptable to many consumers.

In this regard, the authoritative source of the industry believes that the current smart home really enters the second stage, which is based on the linkage of different intelligent items on the intelligent stage of the first stage. This is our progress, but these are just these It is still far from being able to let the "smart home" really land, and we must continue to work hard to get into the third stage, which is a fully automatic, self-learning and self-aware smart home system based on artificial intelligence and big data.

Artificial intelligence is expected to save the smart home industry

The arrival of the artificial intelligence wave has undoubtedly brought new hope to the smart home industry, and smart speakers have become the most typical case. Since Amazon launched the smart speaker Echo in November 2014, it has only achieved two million and a half years of sales, and Alexa has become the connection center connecting many applications. On June 5th, Apple held the 28th WWDC Global Developer Conference to launch HomePod, officially announced its entry into the smart speaker market. The intelligent speaker has the functions of intelligent central control, control of smart home, etc. It provides cloud computing and big data processing capability through open source and open IoT operating system and platform, which not only realizes the interconnection and interoperability between the network device and the network device, but also relies on powerful human face. Technologies such as recognition, voice interaction, semantic understanding, and image recognition help users to control smart products with more natural and friendly voice commands and gestures. They can also provide users with initiative by sensing and learning user behaviors and life preferences. The smart home life service realizes the interconnection and seamless connection between people and network devices, network devices and external resources.

Smart speakers are not an end in themselves. The giants are vying for the data, users and service portals behind them, and the speakers can assume other functional carriers in addition to the interaction.

When the user returns home and the smart speaker says that the home is hot, the previous control method is 'turn on the air conditioner, the cooling mode is 23 degrees Celsius', but in fact people do not communicate like this, but say 'how is the home so hot', this When the AI ​​brain associates all the connected devices in the home, it makes a comprehensive judgment. It may be outside the breeze, and when the PM2.5 is very low, the smart speakers coordinately open the window to blow the natural wind instead of directly turning on the air conditioner.

Each networked device will have a machine learning engine that will make better service and make better decisions through historical data and current data. This is a new opportunity and new scene brought by artificial intelligence to smart home. Can help us achieve a true smart home life.

Artificial intelligence determines the future

The core of smart home is intelligence. In fact, any product is a balance of cost and benefit. TV gives more entertainment, entertainment benefits are big enough, it is popular. The current smart home brings less benefits and costs, so no one cares. The key to the high efficiency of smart homes is intelligence. Not being able to connect to the Internet, the washing machine controlled by the mobile APP is smart. It will automatically collect dirty clothes, automatically clean, automatically dry, and automatically put clean clothes into the wardrobe. The comprehensive laundry equipment is smart home. The price of such a washing machine will be higher, and some people will pay because it changes the way people wash clothes. Automatic collection of dirty clothes requires computer vision to identify the clothes, know what is the clothes, and then know what is dirty clothes. At the same time, precise motion control is required to allow the machine to take the clothes and put them in the tub. Finally, after drying, find out which clothes are stacked in the closet and put them in the closet.

The core technology of this kind of equipment is not the camera, motor, processor, communication chip, but the high degree of artificial intelligence algorithm, neural network, deep learning, computer vision, etc... The seemingly simple housekeeping needs, the required artificial intelligence level ratio Alphago beats Ke Jie's artificial intelligence even higher.

With the breakthrough of artificial intelligence in many fields in 2017, these achievements will stimulate the fission of smart home in 2017, although the combination of smart home and artificial intelligence is still in the early stage of the melee, with the invisible hand of the market to survive the fittest Smart home with high artificial intelligence instead of human being is the king of the future. For the pain points and short-term needs of smart homes in different links, a multi-scenario and multi-terminal intelligent ecological strategy is constructed to utilize the Fengju cloud platform. Breaking the "smart island" situation, through the intelligent business model of "hardware + terminal + data + content + service", a smarter future may appear in the near future.
