Debate: Smart home makes life easier or more troublesome

Smart home must guard against "uninvited guests" 80% sampling camera saves security risks

What would happen if the two teams were to have a debate on whether smart homes made life easier or more troublesome?

If this debate begins before the turn of the century, it is very likely that it will end in vain. Before 1999, there were no producers of professional smart homes in China. There were only one or two smart home agents engaged in import and export business in Shenzhen, and most of the users were European and American users living in China.

If this debate takes place in the first five years of this century, it is very likely that the square will win. In recent years, China has established more than 50 smart home R & D and production enterprises, mainly concentrated in large cities such as Beishangguangshen and Shenzhen. The concept of smart home has gradually become familiar with Chinese people.

In the next five years, the pattern reversed. The barbaric growth of the enterprise and the exaggerated publicity and marketing have made the users who have suffered from the "indiscriminate bombing" for a long time gradually realize that the thunder of the smart home is small and the effect of publicity is almost impossible. Market sales growth slowed down or even declined.

Today, the smart home industry has reached a new round of development. In a survey covering seven countries, 51% of overseas consumers showed strong interest in smart homes, almost at the same level as mobile payments. According to the survey data of the US smart home industry, the capacity of the US smart home market in 2016 was US$9.712 billion, and that of China was US$520 million.

Square: Let smart homes change lives

The Fushun and Wang Guanghui couples who just renovated their houses last year have recently avoided a contradiction that every couple will often face – who will wash the dishes after dinner?

This is all the credit for the new smart home. Fu said that the newly purchased smart dishwasher solves the problem of who washes the dishes, and solves the contradictions within the family. The sweeping robot solved the family conflict caused by the loss of two cats at home. Now, there is a fingerprint lock in the door, no need to pick up the key. “Happiness bursts,” she described as a smarter life.

When Wang Guanghui went to buy a smart phone, he fell into the "pit" of smart home. On the new Apple mobile phone, the built-in software can control smart appliances such as refrigerators and air conditioners in the home. Knowing the moment of this function, he suddenly realized that life could be more convenient.

From the people's demands for smart homes, it is not difficult to see the identity and characteristics of potential users. Weibo user "Abu De Mama" put forward specific needs for smart refrigerators. She hopes that the smart refrigerator can set up a maternal and child area, a separate area for storing breast milk, and a space for dumplings and clams, as well as a constant temperature bean sprouts and fermented yogurt. It is best to have a smart alarm clock and a smart display in the kitchen, while setting a safe working time, while holding the child's attention and liberating the housewife.

Wang Guanghui has a positive and practical expectation for the future smart home: When returning home, press the fingerprint and open the door for a moment, there are robots to put the slippers in front of us, replace the shoes and put the shoes on the shoe rack. He said that the best way to do smart home is to do smart work according to the life you set.

There are many smart home products, and Fu Yu and Wang Guanghui found that many times they are "not too smart enough." "Before watching the Internet, the sweeping robot can go anyway, and which room can come, but my robot feels a bit silly, has been turning around, and after going through, I went to another place and walked back again." Wang Guanghui The most troublesome thing is that the intelligent robot walks around and pulls the power cord that is dragged on the ground. It must be solved manually.

However, this can not ruin their yearning for a smart life in the future. Now, Fu Yi and Wang Guanghui want to buy smart curtains. "The mood of being woken up by the alarm clock every day is not the same as the feeling of being awake by the sun. The summer dawn is earlier. When the 5:00 o'clock is over, the smart curtains are automatically opened. The sun shines for you for an hour. You wake up again, and the feeling is completely Not the same," said Wang Guanghui.

Counterparty: The most traditional is the most reliable

University teacher Xu Jingbo idled the sweeping robot sent by his friend.

In addition to common problems such as easy to touch things, loud noises, and dead corners, Xu Jingbo said that the biggest problem is that the sweeping robot is used to save energy. After a few times, the dust box should be manually removed. Cleaning up to the trash can, instead of making a gray, is more embarrassing than cleaning the traditional broom.

Xu Jingbo said that the microwave oven and refrigerator in the house will have some intelligent elements. But parents suggested that they buy the cheapest microwave oven to buy, the picture is a simple operation. “A good microwave oven or convection oven, it’s especially annoying to adjust various functions.”

Xu Jingbo is not flustered by the promotion of the main function. He said that like mobile phones, more than 90% of the functions of many home appliances are not used, and it is a useless technology addition. His home is now using the new Siemens washing machine, he often misses the simplicity of the previous touch-screen washing machine. "It has a computer inside, sometimes the computer is very awkward, and somehow it has something that it controls."

Xu Jingbo bluntly said that most of the time, life does not need such exquisite standards, and the pursuit is a convenience. If you put a lot of clothes in the washing machine and still have to calculate it, don't you feel tired?

Most dishwashers require the user to remove solid residue before placing the utensils in the machine. "You have washed off the solid residue above, and then you can't finish it. Why bother to put it in the dishwasher for two hours?" Xu Jingbo said a lot of doubts about the dishwasher user's spit.

Yu Zien, who lives in Suzhou, is a novice mother and a dance teacher. She was very interested in smart homes, but after the real study, she gave up - the kitchen was too small to put on the dishwasher; the sweeping robot could not only hurt her daughter, but also let her lose the fun of manually mopping the floor.

Ai Rui's report on smart homes shows that not being able to cut the pain points of users is the direct cause of the current low acceptance of smart homes. The three major factors of pseudo-intelligence, weak demand and high price are the key factors that hinder the further improvement of product penetration.

This report proposes that when adding the WiFi remote control function, it is too cumbersome to use the scene context in the indoor environment by unlocking, opening the app, selecting operations, and the like. At the same time, the actual application of many products did not improve the pain point of the original "unsmart", but added non-critical functions on the "semi-finished products". A bad user experience has hit consumers' enthusiasm.

Weibo users "resolutely not good egg skin" spit a smart drinking cup on Weibo. "There is a cup, 558 yuan, which is huge enough to be bigger than my refiner. Two special functions, even the App can record the number of drinking water, the water quality (no purification function). Right, the lid is not sealed, Can't turn it over.” She questioned: There is still a need for such a sceneless review through the review, and put into production, but also really produced. She lamented: "This is not a smart home, it is forcing smart home."

The microblogging user "Monkey Dabao" has a microblogging number of more than 100. He said that there are too many smart homes in the home, causing the Internet to collapse. The original feeling of being very advanced is gone, the TV can't be opened, the song can't be heard, and the rice is uncooked. He suddenly discovered that the most traditional home products are the most reliable.
