▲ On November 16, the 16th China International High tech Fair (CHTF) with the theme of "adhering to innovation driven and accelerating green development" was grandly opened in Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center.
▲ The CHTF deeply implemented the development strategy of innovation driven by science and technology, gathered innovation resources, highlighted the important achievements of scientific and technological innovation in transforming the mode, adjusting the structure, promoting upgrading, improving people's livelihood and other aspects, as well as related new technologies and products, vigorously organized trade and exchange activities, and gave full play to the positive role of the CHTF in promoting industrial innovation and development. This time, the author had the honor to witness the grand event of the High tech Fair and personally experience the "Mr. Qiang" future smart home exhibition.
▲ The "Mr. Qiang Smart Life" series products cover seven ecosystems: smart home, audio-visual media, security monitoring, interactive games, health care, synchronous education, community convenient business.
▲ There are many products in the "Mr. Qiang" exhibition area, and the smart home system is more colorful as the fist product of "smart life".
Smart home package products
▲ As the center of the whole smart home, the family cloud not only has a strong figure, but also has a variety of functions in the back panel.
▲ Curtain controller: It integrates three communication modes: infrared, short wave and network. Users can not only control the state of the curtain on the mobile terminal, but also directly touch on the control panel.
Light controller
▲ Universal remote control: transform a single mobile phone into a smart home butler in life. Not only is it convenient, it means that you can give up the remote control that will disappear somewhere forever, but also can give up the highly polluting battery that is harmful to human body. Besides making contributions to environmental protection, it also protects the health of yourself and your family.
▲ Door magnetism: door magnetism is not rare, but a micro innovation in "Mr. Qiang" really attracted me. "Old people fall prevention", through the acceleration sensing system, can sense the fall of the elderly at home at the first time, so as to provide personal care.
camera
▲ Infrared sensors: There are many infrared sensors, but are they really "smart"? "Mr. Qiang" added shortwave technology on the basis of infrared to detect the volume of objects and achieve intelligent recognition, which means that you don't have to worry about the small pets at home triggering alarms.
smoke detector
▲ Tablet computer: In order to improve the ecosystem of smart home, we have launched a private brand tablet computer that supports dual card and dual standby. Unfortunately, it does not support 4G. However, from the perspective of tablet performance, the author does not recommend buying one. And "Mr. Qiang" does not carry out bundled sales, and users can choose by themselves.
Smart socket
Intelligent color lamp
▲ "Mr. Qiang" adopts a low profile of "black" dignity and "white" in the color matching of smart home hardware. Some fixed devices adopt a pure white design to better integrate into the home environment, while the products that need touch control use a conspicuous black sand.
▲ After a period of hands-on use, it is found that "Mr. Qiang" series products are all completed by connecting "central equipment", and all initial settings of "central equipment" need to use TV. Although as a furniture product, there is no lack of TV equipment, but all connections at the routing end can only be completed on the display equipment, excluding computers, Without talking about the advanced settings pursued by geeks, the remote control operation alone is tedious.
▲ From the screenshot of the demonstration, the "hub device" is an Android based TV box+intelligent router. Audio visual media, interactive games, health care, and synchronous education are all based on TV boxes.
▲ The test results of health care products and operation panels are relatively accurate, but the author is not very satisfied with his weight.
▲ Operation panel of TV terminal smart home.
Software APP
The control of smart home series products on the TV end is not common. At this stage, mobile phone remote control is the most common operation mode until a suitable integrated entrance for smart home is found. "Mr. Qiang" has created a more practical software APP for its own products.
▲ The first interface is the remote control interface of the TV terminal.
▲ All devices and online status can be seen intuitively in the control interface, and some profiles are built in the software, which saves users from tedious operation process. On the whole, APP is standard, not too much fancy things, and quite practical.
▲ Impressive is the intelligent color light control interface, rich color adjustment, diverse scenarios, timing and delay switches, group linkage effect and other functions, which are much ahead of similar products on the market.
▲ The webcam has also been added to the cloud storage, so the user can adjust the previous monitoring video at any time.
summary
"Mr. Qiang" smart home takes "smart life" as its brand positioning. In terms of product technology, "Mr. Qiang" has achieved excellence, but there is still much room for improvement in software. Although some micro innovations can stimulate consumers' nerves, real user experience is the long-term development direction. I hope Mr. Qiang can improve his software. The advantage of using the Internet to create a product is that it can achieve rapid iteration and constantly improve the use experience by collecting user feedback.
In terms of experience, because the network environment of the "High tech Fair" is too complex, the on-site network is not smooth, and the whole experience process is not very beautiful, I will not repeat it here. I hope that some external factors can be excluded in the later stage to truly experience the charm of "Mr. Qiang" smart home.
Smart home is still in its infancy. It needs real product innovation, and more importantly, it needs to break the existing 1+1 model, because the smart home ecosystem is not a single piece of hardware, but a variety of hardware interaction. Of course, the author looks forward to new smart home, rather than focusing on traditional equipment.
