On the 27th of this month, Sharp invited the author to attend an exchange meeting in Foxconn Development Zone. The author was impressed by 5G+8K and AIoT business. Now let's share some key points of our visit that day.

In 2018, One SHARP's global integration strategy returned to the Chinese market. In 2019, Sharp put forward the strategic program of "8K+5G" and "black and white progress together".

8K is mainly used in the camera industry and the display industry. Sharp has an 8K professional camera. During the visit, the author shot this 8K camera that many people dream of. With 5G bandwidth, it can achieve 8K live broadcast. This technology can be used in the live broadcast of the Olympic Games or other sports events.

Sharp has also independently developed a decoding chip (AQUOS 8K Smart Engine Pro) for 8K video, equipped with AI pixel compensation technology, which can intelligently fill 1080P/4K picture pixels, enhance picture details, and achieve a clear picture effect comparable to 8K resolution; 3D noise reduction technology, intelligently analyzes the amount of noise in each frame, and intelligently and rationally reduces noise in combination with picture information; MEMC high operation frame inserting technology can intelligently analyze the movement trend of moving objects or the transfer direction of background, making the 8K motion picture more smooth.

Sharp showed an 8K TV in the live exhibition area, and the author also watched an 8K Dolby Vision video in a darkroom, which was shocked by the powerful display effect. First, the 8K resolution provided a clear and sharp picture image. In addition, the Dolby Vision has a super large dynamic range and display brightness, which really feels immersive, This must be a necessary viewing equipment for future movie fans.

There is also a TV with Sharp 8K panel outside the on-site exhibition area, with a refresh rate of 120Hz, The crazy combination of 8K+120Hz is also the first time for the author to observe it on the spot, and he can't help exclaiming: "This is too powerful.

There is also a Sharp 8K camera on display, and a smaller "pocket" 8K camera in the corner of the exhibition area (not captured).

The author also visited Sharp's smart home ecological chain AIoT and had in-depth exchanges with the product manager. The smart home ecology was formed by using the home devices to network and controlling and feedback through the mobile phone APP.

The Internet of Everything is connected through a "cocoro" APP.

This is an automatic excrement shovel, or "AI excrement shovel", which automatically measures the weight, urine volume, feces volume and various data of pets.

It can also automatically clear the excrement of pets. Multiple sensors are built in to detect some "data" in the feces. If the pet has any abnormality, it will notify the owner through cocoro.

Pets' data will be saved in the cloud every day, and can be viewed through cocoro anytime, anywhere. It can be said that human beings will be relieved of the position of the excrement shovel officer, and then the cat will be finished with peace of mind.

The refrigerator and microwave oven are also intelligent. There is a display screen outside the refrigerator, which can display what is on each floor of the refrigerator in real time. There is also a built-in camera that can view the situation inside the refrigerator with an external display screen. The refrigerator is also connected to the network, and the shopping software on the refrigerator can directly place an order for food. The microwave oven provides a food menu, which will automatically start cooking after the corresponding food is put in.

Through the Internet, you can also share recipes for other people to use or view other people's recipes.

The washing machine is also connected with other smart homes through the network. Generally, the washing machine is placed in the balcony or bathroom. When the washing machine finishes washing clothes, people in the kitchen or bedroom may not hear the sound. At this time, the sound will come from the refrigerator, indicating that the clothes have been washed.

The air conditioner can be set to start in advance and automatically start one hour before returning home, which can avoid the embarrassing situation of waiting for a period of time for the temperature to drop when returning home.

A weight detector and a blood pressure detector are built into the wash basin to update the weather condition and temperature through the network.

At present, the cocoro application and these smart homes have not been launched in China. The product manager said that he would two thousand and twenty It entered China in.

The Internet of Everything is an ultimate concept. Different types of enterprises have different entry points according to their own business characteristics. We dare not say who will take the lead. However, from the current starting attitude, Sharp, standing on the golden track of industrial applications, is definitely the one worthy of attention.
