Gartner predicts that the number of objects that can access the network in 2020 will reach 25 billion. After the release of this data, a number of companies have launched new systems for the Internet of Things, such as Samsung's ArTIk, Huawei's LiteOS and yesterday's Google launch of Brillo. These new systems will allow more of the objects we use every day to access the Internet, making the Internet of Things even richer.

But simply increasing the number of connected devices is not the way to make the IoT truly revolutionary. When it comes to the Internet of Things, we always pay more attention to the "material" part, but in fact, the real foundation and core of the Internet of Things is actually the network. Only by developing a good network can we make things interconnect.

The core of the Internet of Things revolution is "net" is not "thing"

Interconnectivity is a good thing, but limited ability

Before discussing this issue, let's take a look at what we are doing now. Under the concept of the Internet of Things, connecting objects together is connectivity. In other words, we have to give Internet connectivity to everything. Today, when it comes to IoT devices, what we think of more is a device that can be remotely controlled using a smartphone or other computing device. This kind of remote control makes our life more convenient. For example, if your family forgets to bring the key, you can open the door remotely in the office; or install a WiFi camera at home so that you can view the home at any time on your mobile phone. Do pets do damage when you are not at home?

In March of this year, we saw an interconnected device that changed the lives of a woman who traveled abroad. With two smart motion detectors and a mobile phone, she can monitor the situation at home from anywhere. Once a thief broke into her home and she was alerted quickly on her cell phone, so she immediately alerted. When the police arrived, the thief was still in her home and was eventually brought to justice. You know, the lady was far away 700 miles from home.

Whenever such a thing happens, no one will question the role of such a networked device. However, these devices still have their own limitations. First of all, the security system mentioned above requires the user to stay online at all times in order to work smoothly. If the thief breaks in, your phone has no signal, then the system is equivalent to nothing. In addition, although this intelligent detection sensor can be used with many other devices, it is still necessary for ordinary users, especially those without any technical background, to successfully install it to a designated location and successfully complete debugging. It takes a lot of effort.

It is for these reasons that the Internet of Things revolution has not yet arrived. Although today's "smart" devices are much better than their ancestors, what they can do is far from the real smart devices in our minds. Yes, Google's Brillo and its competitors may be able to keep the Internet of Things moving forward. But we are still a long way from the real outbreak of the Internet of Things. Because everyone has their own expectations and requirements for the Internet of Things, you can't make equipment manufacturers meet everyone's needs.

The way to solve this problem is also simple: to provide users with programmable devices, allowing users to customize the functionality of the device through simple operations, rather than handing over the work to the system itself.

Only users know the user best

I am not saying that every user has to learn to program, nor does it mean that every user has to understand the unique API of each system. I mean, we should adjust a "logical layer" for each device, allowing the user to simply manipulate the device at this level. Like a smart thermostat, the device is structured and working in a complex way, but it has a very user-friendly interface. For the average user, the interface to manipulate the device is as simple as making a call. This friendly interface allows users to make complex settings in a simple way. After all, ordinary users don't need to know how the device works, they just need to know how to use it.

With such an interface, even users who are ignorant of technology can use the IoT device effortlessly to customize their own smart home environment. For example, when someone enters your password three times on your doorstep, in addition to auto-locking, you can also connect it to your webcam, turn on the camera and shoot. Or, when your home's motion sensor detects a break, it can immediately notify you and your neighbor, and connect your smart light bulb in your home to let all the bulbs flash together to attract the attention of people outside the room.

The battlefield of the Internet of Things is not only the living room

Be aware that the Internet of Things can not only function in the living room of your home, but also in all aspects of your life.

For example, when your favorite team wins the championship, the message will be automatically pushed to your phone, and your phone will automatically open the screen of your home computer and display the team logo on the screen; then your phone will automatically Find other contacts in your contact who like the same team and send a greeting message. Even order beer from the bar. As long as your imagination is rich enough, the role of the Internet of Things will be infinite.

Of course, the benefits of the IoT revolution are not just for users. Companies can also use this technology to transform their operations, such as real-time monitoring of product inventory, output, and equipment failures to make business operations smoother. There are currently similar enterprise systems, but the maintenance and operation of such systems is complex and often requires a team of experts to maintain. And if you add a simple operation interface to this system, then the operating pressure of the enterprise will be smaller, and the system's use and maintenance costs will also be reduced.

The true potential of "smart"

Computers have changed industries a lot of times, and we have experienced this many times. But every change comes with a pain that comes from competition. Just 20 years after the birth of the Internet, we ushered in a browser war. Now we are welcoming the IoT operating system war. It is this kind of competition that constantly pushes up the standards of computing devices.

What we need now is a unified programming standard, just as HTML unifies all browsers. However, we need to add an interface to the IoT device that everyone can operate. When the unified standards and highly accessible interfaces arrived, it was the day when the Internet of Things revolution came.

Carbon fiber heating element
Such products are made of carbon fiber for the heating of the basic material made of tubular heating element, the use of reflective surface heat. The overall type of straight barrel and rectangular floor type: straight through the general use of single tube fever, the body can automatically rotate for the entire room heating. Turn on the power after the heating rate is surprisingly fast, in 1 to 2 seconds when the body has been hot, 5 seconds surface temperature up to 300-700 degrees, power in the 600 ~ 1200W adjustable. Rectangular floor type with double tube heat, you can floor or wall use, power is relatively large, in the 1800 ~ 2000W or so. In addition to heating function, these products can also play the effect of health care therapy. When the heating body heating can produce 765.9W / M of infrared radiation, the equivalent of a spectrum physiotherapy instrument.
