The development of smart homes has gone through a long period of time, from the birth of the first smart building in 84 years to the smart home concept formed in 2000-2002, and the smart home pilot model project in Shanghai and Shenzhen in 2002-03. Home products gradually move from concept to promotion stage. What is the current state of development of smart homes? How is the acceptance of the market? What are the problems with smart homes? With these questions, the reporter interviewed Chen Yu, the project director of Shanghai Xinhui Internet of Things Co., Ltd., and specifically learned about the current development of smart homes.
It is understood that in 2003, some domestic manufacturers began to make smart home panels, and from 03-09, they gradually applied smart home systems in relatively high-end villa communities in China. At present, the smart home market is in a stage of rapid development. It has been developing rapidly since 2009. Smart homes will be used in the renovation of high-end villas. Smart homes and smart homes can be seen in luxury homes and smart homes. Due to the relatively high-end, less application population, it is relatively difficult to promote.
China's smart home is made from security, because people's demand for security is relatively high, so smart security in the promotion of the early stage is relatively smooth. Smart Security protects the personal safety and property safety of family members through cameras, detectors, etc. Once an outsider has intruded, it can notify the owner and immediately call the police. Intelligent security was originally used in villas, because the villa is independent, so security is a necessity, security applications in the community is relatively small, the home users in the community mainly use environmental monitoring, gas detection, temperature and humidity control, fire alarm, etc. Functional security of property.
But now, as the security environment of the city is getting better and better, people are paying more attention to the comfort and convenience of home, and the focus of security will be less and less. With smart homes, people can remotely control home appliances through mobile phones, remote controls, and control systems. In the morning, the curtains are automatically opened, doors and windows are automatically locked when they leave home, and the indoor lights can change different scenes and different background music settings. The home mode can be set. The air conditioner is turned on automatically before the owner returns home. These system functions make life easier.
From the point of view of market feedback over the years, the primary issue of smart homes is the high cost of products, which ordinary users cannot accept. From the product point of view, the amount of components purchased by a single family is not very large, but there are many types. Because it is not wholesale, the cost of procurement of product materials is high. Real estate developers are unwilling to pay for smart homes, because not all users have demand for smart homes. The introduction of smart homes will inevitably increase the development cost of real estate, making developers unwilling to invest in smart homes. Smart home manufacturers and integrators are also trying to work with developers, which can increase the number of purchases, reduce costs, and thus push down the price of smart homes.
If developers make a real estate all smart home, then a more than 100 square meters of apartment units, ordinary families to do smart homes in 70,000 or so, but by the developers to do to reduce the cost of half, in three or four thousand or so, Then only a few hundred dollars per square meter increase the cost, so ordinary people are more easily accepted. Developers can choose two options. First, to meet the individual needs of users, they need to stay in the line when building a house, and then choose or design an appropriate smart home system according to the user's needs to realize the smart home one-to-one service; This is the choice of universal application of smart home systems, the application of the entire real estate, such a lower cost, developers can conduct such pilot projects for real estate, to adopt refined decoration methods, build smart community, focus on promotion.
With the development of the Internet of Things, smart homes increasingly use wireless devices. The Internet of Things emphasizes unlimited transmission, and tends to develop in the direction of wireless video. The faster video development, the better the development of smart homes, and the line of wired smart homes. The cost is higher, and the use of wireless instead of ordinary lines can be controlled by multiple ones. The greater the amount of intelligent control, the lower the cost of applying wireless, which makes the individual unit's cost of the smart home relatively lower. In both wired and unlimited contact modes, the cable is relatively stable and undisturbed, but it needs to be buried first, and then the integrator can select the right brand and product according to the individual needs of the customer. Wireless devices are vulnerable to interference. The main reason is that there is more noise in the country, and the carrier mode is mainly in foreign countries. In the future, wireless is the development trend of smart homes. Considering the level of smart homes used by family members, it can also be combined with unlimited and wired to facilitate users. However, the current wireless port protocols are not uniform, making the use unstable and urgently require a unified protocol standard to regulate the market.
In terms of after-sales service, the installation department of smart home products is responsible. In recent years, smart home manufacturers and integrators have increasingly attached importance to the after-sales service level of smart homes. If there is a problem with the product, it is firstly analyzed if it is a circuit problem or other problem. If it is a hardware issue of the product, the manufacturer will be replaced. The system problem and the line problem will be repaired by the smart home manufacturer or integrator. Because the smart home customers are high-end customers. Therefore, we must put service first, and this is one of the reasons for the relatively high price. In addition, the demand for smart home market in Shanghai is greater than that in other cities. The main reason is that there are more wealthy people in Shanghai, and 70%-80% of the nation's top 500 companies are in Shanghai, so the development of smart homes. It still depends on the market to decide.
In China, the international brands of smart homes are Schneider, Siemens, Legrand, ABB, Morton, Clipsal, Honeywell, etc. The price of their products is very high, usually a control panel is in three or five thousand. At the same time, but the system stability is higher; domestic smart home brands mainly include Sobo, Great Wall, Haier, etc. The price is low, but the stability is not strong. The domestic production of the control panel is only 100-200 yuan minimum, which is also its The main cause of instability. China's smart home brands should also consider the quality and stability of products while reducing costs, and cannot allow customers to lose confidence in smart home products.
