Recently, a buddy of mine has made a new house and invited me. He usually likes technology, and naturally, he's going to tell me what he did in his renovation. His home is located in the south of beijing city, where he has chosen, in pursuit of air quality, to install a new family wind system, with advanced automatic filters and kitchen garbage disposal, and of course he has not forgotten to show me the smart families under smartphone control。
"what can your phone control?" i asked。
“of course, many things in my family are intelligent, such as smart light bulbs in the living room and bedroom, and smart center controllers, through which we can use mobile phone remote television and air conditioning.”。
"it's convenient for you to turn off the light on your phone at night, but how can your wife get up in the middle of the night and turn the light on? We need to find a cell phone
"this one has to be studied. It's like there's an exclusive wireless switch. I didn't buy it."
"is your new wind system still on? Can you turn it off on your phone when you're out?"
"no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I didn't mean to tear it down, he did look amazing, but he didn't look like a cut island, and he wasn't particularly easy to use, at least lying on his bed with a hand-held lamp, which, in my opinion, was far from easy to turn on。
This reminds me of jobos' introduction to the iphone release in 2007, in which he said, in a mockery, that the mobile phones that had previously been launched by the manufacturer, which they called “smartphone”, were not even smart or even very difficult to use. Jobos was so angry because before iphone, the so-called smartphones were all show-off -- i had a big screen, i had a full keyboard, i could e-mail, i could read a web page and stack up the know-how and call it intelligence。
You call that a smart house
There are so many smart home products, like pre-2007 smartphones, that most of them don't escape the magic spell of "dazzling" -- i can switch off my mobile phone lights, i can turn on air conditioning if i'm not home, i can switch off the cooker remotely... It's a replica of early smartphones, and they look pretty good, and sometimes they really work, but they're not easy to use, they're not smart. The iphone, ipad can play for a mother or a child, and even if they're radicals, they have to play for half a day。
SmartIt's supposed to be completely ecological and make people ignore its existence
In my view, what is at the centre of the intelligent family is not the key, but is the effective interconnectivity of the system and the genuine automation of the equipment that manages the home. The human interface provides care not only for young people using smartphones, but also for the elderly and children。
So how do we do that? In recent days, hale, who chose to work with homekit, the apple home based platform, has shown a new idea: smart homes should not be limited to providing diversified and more convenient means of doing business, but rather should allow smart devices to become truly “smart” – with less manipulation, automatic perception, thinking, and more intelligent regulation。
LocalIt's a good choice to be a smart home
Although it is not difficult to call a perfect home at present, from the point of view of improving the standard of living, there is still a choice, and the main point of choice is undoubtedly to try to avoid the emergence of an island. So i prefer to choose the smart home products of the electric giants, because a product like a starbox, even if it does not receive much support for the expansion of the api in the short term, still has the ability to provide it with relatively well-developed ecology on a variety of household appliances. Otherwise, it is easy to mention the situation — intelligent homes will also be used less and less in islands, and eventually completely forgotten by families。
