Rise of internet of things

According to media reports, Internet of Things technology now seems to have been unstoppable It can help us order goods, analyze data and even create a smart home city. The industry promises that the Internet of Things technology will benefit everyone.

What is the Internet of Things?

Internet of things is a new generation of information technology is an important part of the "information" era of an important stage of development. The English name is: "Internet of things (IoT)". As the name implies, things are connected to the Internet. This has two meanings: First, the core and foundation of the Internet of Things is still the Internet, is the extension and expansion of the Internet on the basis of the network; Second, its client extension and extended to any items and items, information Exchange and communication, that is, things together. Internet of things through the intelligent perception, identification technology and pervasive computing communication awareness technology, widely used in the integration of the network, and therefore known as the computer, the Internet after the world's third wave of information industry development. Internet of things is the application of the Internet to expand, rather than things that network is better than networking is business and application. Therefore, the application of innovation is the core of the development of things to the user experience as the core of innovation 2.0 is the soul of the development of things.

"Internet of Things" - link all the different devices through the network. Technical expert Mike Kuniavsky is the pioneer of this idea, described as "distributed in the entire environment of embedded computing devices and data communications." I prefer it to the original: through information processing colonization (integration control) daily life.

At the individual level, the Internet of Things exists in the form of a wearable biometric sensor. One of the simplest is a networked digital pedometer, which measures the number of steps to measure a person's walking distance and provides an energy estimate that is consumed during the activity. More sophisticated equipment can measure heart rate, breath, skin temperature and even sweat volume.

The e-business platform, through a variety of means, includes the use of these data to develop a mapping model that accurately maps our aspirations in order to achieve greater efficiency. Devices such as the Dash Button allow users to complete the transaction with little thought, and even no longer need to click through the touch screen of the phone or tablet. This is the industry called "conversion" of accurate data, because it is relentless: each check box check, fill in each input field, are directed at the final user transaction percentage. The fewer steps in the transaction, the more likely it is to spend.

And product manufacturers are constantly trying to eliminate these steps, hoping that one of its things like a smart phone can become an indispensable part of daily life. Recently the entire industry to the "smart home" development is only one aspect.

At present, this strategy is mainly concentrated in the so-called "smart speakers" who, and the first generation has entered the market, including well-known products, including Amazon Echo and Google Home, each of these products can become the core of the entire smart home The Amazon Echo is a simple cylindrical speaker, and Google Home is an inverted oval. But in fact, the look of the smart speaker does not matter because its main function is the physical "virtual assistant", to provide users with a convenient and integrated way to access the many digital controls scattered in the family - from the lighting And entertainment to safety, heating, cooling and ventilation systems and more.
