Electronic enthusiasts eight o'clock: International research and consultancy Gartner predicts that the number of connected objects in global use will reach 8.4 billion in 2017, an increase of 31% from 2016 and will increase to 20.4 billion by 2020. One. In addition, the amount of end-point and service-related spending in 2017 will also reach the $2 trillion mark. In terms of regions, Greater China, North America and Western Europe are the main areas that use networking. In 2017, these three regions will account for 67% of the total Internet of Things (IoT) installed capacity.

The consumer market will be the largest group of connected users, and will reach 5.2 billion units in 2017, accounting for 63% of the total number of applications; in 2017, enterprises are expected to deploy 3.1 billion connected objects. Peter Middleton, research director at Gartner, said: "In addition to automotive systems, the most popular applications for consumers will be smart TVs and digital set-top boxes, and smart phones and commercial security surveillance cameras are the most commonly used by businesses."

In addition to smart meters, applications tailored to specific verticals (including manufacturing equipment, process sensors used in power plants, and immediate addressing devices for medical care) will drive adoption of networked objects in 2017. The number is estimated to be 1.6 billion.

However, since 2018, as the networking function has gradually introduced mass-produced low-cost devices, various cross-industry devices with intelligent buildings as the main targets, including LED lighting, HVAC and physical security systems. It will become the mainstream; by 2020, the number of inter-industry installations will grow to 4.4 billion, including 3.2 billion applications tailored for specific vertical enterprises.

The number of devices purchased by consumers has increased, and the related expenses of enterprises have also increased simultaneously. In terms of hardware expenditure, in 2017, enterprises will use networked objects to drive 964 billion US dollars of spending, and consumer application spending will increase to 725 billion in 2017. Dollar. By 2020, the total hardware expenditure of the above two is expected to reach 3 trillion US dollars.

According to Denise Rueb, research director at Gartner, "Internet of Things services are important for the rise of IoT devices." Total Internet of Services services (professional, consumer and wireless networking services) are expected to reach $273 billion in 2017.

Rueb further pointed out: "The related services are based on professional IoT operating technology categories, that is, service providers assist enterprises in designing, building and operating IoT systems. However, the growth of wireless networking services and consumer services. The speed will be faster, because the rise of consumer IoT services is relatively late, and the growth foundation is weak. Similarly, wireless networking services have begun to grow strongly due to the decline in costs and the rise of emerging applications."
