What should we be wary of under the shadow of smart homes?
IFA2015, which is concerned by global consumer electronics, household appliances and related industries, has adopted "smart interconnection" as its main theme this year. It is not difficult to see that in the next few decades, the development of "smart" products has become a major trend in the entire home appliance industry, and even in all industries. At the same time, it also announced the coming of the era of "interconnecting" and "intermediary".
In the near future, when you step into the house, all the smart devices can provide you with excellent service. The height of the room, the brightness of the light, the closing of the doors and windows, and the volume of the volume can all be realized by the smart device. . But at the same time, we must be more careful. In a world where everything is related, there will be some problems in the connection between people, people, things and people. This kind of interconnection provides us with intelligent and efficient automation solutions. At the same time, there are some potential threats.
1 The security of smart devices cannot be ignored
Since the birth of the Internet, network security issues have existed. The "Internet of Things" also has such problems. From the current technology, smart devices generally need to be equipped with Wi-Fi modules, such as adding Wi-Fi modules to devices such as TVs and air conditioners to build wireless home intelligence systems. The corresponding smart device operates. Then, if someone invades the corresponding system, it can control the connected smart device, operate it, damage the normal operation of the device, and even cause harm to the human body. At the HackPwn Safe Geek Carnival that just ended in August, the horrors of various smart devices were invaded. There are smart cars, smart bracelets, and smart washing machines. Some smart devices seem to be related to our lives. It's not big. Imagine the increasing number of household items that carry smart devices in the future. The security of smart devices will be a big challenge for the entire industry.
1 Intelligent without sacrificing efficient and accurate automation
When you watch the smart bracelet running, the readings of the wearable heart rate monitor and the smart bracelet are very different; or when you return home, the temperature inside the house is already cool, but the smart air conditioner still has the temperature lowered; or the high-end TV or The computer can never accurately identify your voice. These inaccuracies have caused users to be disappointed and disgusted with the smart home experience. A water heater equipped with a smart device can capture the current bathing environment parameters through some settings and unique algorithms, thus intelligently controlling the water flow and water temperature, without the need for the user to manually complete the adjustment process, or even need not By adjusting the app with the app, the user can complete the whole process and be accurate, which should be the intelligent and efficient automation solution that the user can get in the future.
1 Compatible integration of hardware devices and software platforms
When we purchased some smart home products, we found that every time we buy a product, the mobile phone needs to download a corresponding APP application to achieve the purpose of operating the product, so that the total number of small, large and small APP Filled with the screen of the mobile phone, I did not enjoy the convenient service brought by the smart products, and I was tired of it. In the future, the efforts of different hardware vendors and different software platforms are required. Whether it is to introduce corresponding specifications or share source code, the end user gets a compatible and highly integrated operation platform, thus enabling Users enjoy real convenience while operating different brands and different models of products. This is also a problem that will be faced in the future when the home is highly intelligent.
Although "smart" products have more or less problems of one kind or another, the future is still the "smart" products that are not perfect. In the future, we will enjoy more "smart" products. Efficient and automated services, but also always be wary of the negative impact of "smart" products, and hope that this high level of connectivity will bring more opportunities and changes to our future.
