With the rapid development of technology, it has become necessary to have a smart home. In the past, smart homes were regarded as part of fantasy, but now they are about to become an important part of our lives
Ten years from now, we will change from turning lights on and off with sound to completely immersing ourselves in the Internet of things (IOT). Thanks to the progress of artificial intelligence, the most intelligent house will be able to really understand its owners or residents and finally predict their needs; The development of robot technology will help our machines in cleaning, cooking and so on; The new sensor will pay close attention to our happiness.
machine learning
At present, the word "smart" has been abused a lot. It seems that we have been painting cakes for smart home. For example, the lighting programmed by mobile phone, automatic shutter and video doorbell is very good, which can make our house more comfortable or safe.
However, home appliances will not automatically become "smart" products because they are connected to the Internet - so far, many technologies we have seen are better known as "connected home".
However, smart home seems to be very close to us. As more and more devices begin to use machine learning, computer vision, natural language processing and other technologies that can actually think, make decisions and learn, the current situation of "connected home" will change in the next decade.
artificial intelligence
Due to the progress of artificial intelligence, we can expect to see them become smarter and smarter and help us complete more tasks. Sweeping robots like iRobot have attracted us and can clean ourselves without hands. Products like children's robot dog Aibo also show how they can help us accompany us like pets.
Global promotion of 5g and WiFi 6
With the global promotion of 5g and the emergence of improved WiFi technologies such as WiFi 6, smart home devices will be linked through faster and more powerful networks, which means better access to cloud data and processing resources。
5g, in particular, is expected to revolutionize the delivery of Internet of things services, including smart home technology, because it eliminates the need for equipment to consume wires and cables while consuming the least amount of power. It also allows more devices to be connected at the same time using the old mobile network standards.
This will be a crucial factor, as houses in densely populated areas will continue to be occupied by more and more
devices eager for data bandwidth. Similarly, WiFi 6 has an advantage over previous standards in enabling devices
to handle competitive network access requests.
Faster networks do not just mean faster data transfer between devices or between devices and the cloud. This also
means that more and more complex applications will have the potential to take advantage of larger and faster
data streams.
Devices such as automated security systems will be able to access more changing and up-to-date information
through which their usefulness can be predicted. This will make them more reliable and efficient during 2020.
