Imagine the smart home in the future: lazy people are blessed to do housework without their hands.
What is the future of smart homes and home appliances? It takes a long time for the washing machine liner to produce bacteria. Can you clean it yourself? How can the food in the refrigerator not continue to grow, so as to achieve the effect of preservation? Yesterday afternoon, at the promotion meeting of new technologies and new products for home appliances held at the 4th Home Expo, experts discussed the cutting-edge innovative technologies and introduced the emerging products and achievements of home appliances around the development of Hefei home appliance industry and various technical fields involved in the home appliance industry.
When you go out now, turn off all kinds of electrical appliances, then turn off the lights, close the windows, and finally lock the door; However, in the near future, as long as you set the scene mode of leaving home, you can not only complete all the above work, but also start security equipment and intelligent cleaning robots to clean your home. Han Jianghong, vice president of Hefei University of Technology, believes that smart home is the development direction of home appliances in the future.
You may have heard of a series of jobs mentioned above, but it's different with smart home appliances. They can not only make you simple and labor-saving, but also work together after you give instructions. For example, when the microwave oven is working, the water heater will stop working to reduce energy consumption; When watching TV, the phone suddenly calls, and the TV will automatically turn down the sound; When the air conditioner is working, the doors and windows can be closed automatically without disturbing you; When food is taken out of the refrigerator, the microwave oven and induction cooker are automatically set to prepare for work. It feels good to think about such a wonderful life!
So what else do you need to do to live such a comfortable life? Han Jianghong believes that there are still some existing problems in the realization of smart home, such as the high price of a single network appliance, the inability to work with other devices in the family, and the inability to share network resources. It is necessary to build a home network, set up a home server and realize the function migration.
Vegetables will also turn old and yellow in the refrigerator; The washing machine washed away the oil stains on the clothes, but the inner container of the washing machine was contaminated by microorganisms, and it would be allergic to wearing washed clothes. Soon these problems that often appear in the use of household appliances can be solved in newly developed household appliances. Ji Junhui of Hefei Branch of National Engineering Research Center of Engineering Plastics and Hefei Household Appliance Technology Engineering Research Institute made a preliminary exploration on household appliance innovation from the perspective of materials.
Ji Junhui said that vegetables will age and turn yellow in the refrigerator because plants can naturally release ethylene, which can make plants mature. How to solve this problem and make the refrigerator have stronger fresh-keeping function? The ethylene absorbent they developed can do this and cut off its mature catalyst.
Cleaning the range hood is also a very painful thing for many families. Too much grease is difficult to clean up, and sometimes people have to be hired to do it. However, with low surface energy materials that can prevent pollution and save energy, oil stains are not easy to get on. Ji Junhui and his colleagues have done many experiments and found that the range hood made of low surface energy materials not only does not need to be disassembled for professional cleaning, but also can directly bring down some oil stains by putting a pot of hot water under it, which is very convenient and clean.
When these new technologies are applied to life, what will be the life of Hefei people in the future? Sun Yining of Hefei Institute of Intelligent Machinery, Chinese Academy of Sciences imagined a future life scene: in the morning, we will wake up to the sweet sound of getting up, and the TV will automatically broadcast the weather and instruct us to dress. The soymilk machine, toaster or rice cooker in the kitchen has prepared a hearty breakfast. Sitting in the office, don't worry about whether the children will peek at the TV. I made a reservation before I went out. Don't worry about thieves at home, let the phone connect to the camera at home through the network. Before going to work, as long as you send a short message with your mobile phone, the air conditioner and rice cooker will start working in advance; The refrigerator will order from the supermarket through the internet according to the consumption habits, and give an early warning of the food that is about to expire. After dinner, you can enjoy the wonderful programs recorded on TV. When sleeping, the air conditioner will automatically sense the owner's temperature and set the most comfortable temperature. In the early morning, the water heater at home began to work to prepare hot water. ...
Imagine the future of smart home.
Human dreams are always endless, but with the passage of time, we will be surprised to find that those naive fantasies have come to us and gradually become accustomed to them. For "smart home", although a gratifying step has been taken now. But in a sense, it has only reached the initial "home automation", which is far from the real "intelligence". Let's think about it for a moment. What will the smart home look like in the future?
1, networking equipment is around us. Household appliances, large and small, in life and work are real information appliances. Each electrical appliance, induction module, operation terminal and residential facilities even have a separate network identification address, which is convenient for accessing and recording events. The house itself is modular and can be assembled freely. The network communication cables, sensing equipment and power supply equipment in the module have been arranged in advance, and users can adjust freely according to their living environment, application requirements and preferences. Great changes have taken place in household appliances. Many original single household appliances, such as televisions, stereos, rice cookers, etc., have been integrated into the systematic information household appliances system. For example, the so-called "TV" may be some functions of the display terminal and audio system in the smart home system. Because of home intelligent terminals and shared resources, home appliances may become a single product without repetitive functions, and TV is the fastest product to be eliminated or changed; It can be predicted that the concept of "household appliances" will be rewritten in the future-the electrical module of the home network, or an integral part of the home network. The sharing of information and resources eliminates the redundancy of equipment. For example, the temperature sensor of the air conditioner can be read by the security system to decide whether to give an alarm when the temperature is too high. ...
Internet is as ubiquitous as air. On the expressway, every street lamp is connected to the internet, and the flowers and plants on the roadside are irrigated by their own irrigation system, just like those installed in your home. We can see and hear about our home appliances in any corner of the world; You can visit your home page through your mobile phone, as if you are still at home; Similarly, broadband multimedia communication is extremely convenient, and high-definition image transmission and voice transmission are free and smooth. You can have video communication with distant friends and relatives in any room, and it is also convenient to work at home (SOHO). Broadband video conferencing system and collaborative office system allow you to work with colleagues all over the world at home.
3. The widespread application of artificial intelligence and pattern recognition. The home server will appear, and its powerful processing power will make it your "virtual housekeeper" or "virtual assistant". She can help you do all the housework. She can also be your secretary and handle business information for you. The application of neural network makes smart home organization more effective and management more convenient, and the house can automatically perceive any changes in the outside world and adjust itself adaptively. At this time, the house is more like a living body. Breathe with you, feel with you. For example, when you go home every day, you may turn on the light, open the curtains and turn on the air conditioner. The time in a room is relatively fixed-eating, entertaining and resting ... Then, the smart home will automatically complete a series of operations for you according to your behavior characteristics; There may be no need to turn on the air conditioner in winter, and the system will adapt in time to create an interactive environment. That is to say, computer vision, voice recognition, wall projection and other multimodal interactive capabilities are embedded in the physical space. Computers can identify people's body posture, gestures, sounds and context in this physical space, and then judge people's intentions, make appropriate feedback or actions, and help people work more effectively or improve people's quality of life. Furthermore, smart home also analyzes the mood, attitude and behavior characteristics of residents through sensors, so as to adjust the behavior of the house to better adapt. For example, when people feel sad and angry, the system will adjust the lights, background music and even temperature to relieve people's emotions-is this considerate?
4. The emergence of robots. Robots that can walk upright, have thinking ability and talk to people will appear in our homes, which will not only bring convenience to the elderly and children, but also add interest to life. As a "mobile" member of smart home, it can help us realize more functions.
5. Smart and environmentally friendly. Green, environmental protection and energy saving will become the important assessment indicators of home in the future, even the primary consideration. After the basic intellectualization of housing is realized, green ecological housing has become an inevitable goal. It needs reasonable design and effective management of energy, water environment, gas environment, sound environment, light environment, thermal environment, greening, waste management and disposal, and green building materials system. And the automated residence just provides the management foundation for it. In any case, housing is the place where people live at home, and intelligence should serve people's home life, so it should be more comprehensive and humanized.
When a stranger enters the room, the owner will receive a call from the intelligent security system at home; When you get home, you can use your mobile phone to remotely control the air conditioner and electric water heater; Your company's computer allows you to monitor and help your children finish their homework at work through the Kaka webcam installed at home ... "Nothing is impossible, only unexpected". These home smart devices that once surprised you in movies are entering people's family life through the bridge of science and technology.
SmartHome is called "smart home" abroad. Maybe children often see automatic doors, talking ceilings and omniscient telephones in foreign movies ... At that time, you may think that these are all arranged by the director, which is an imaginary life. The real intelligent life may only be owned by the richest man like Microsoft President Bill Gates.
In fact, the most famous smart home in the world is Bill Gates' lakeside mansion. Computer sensors are installed in his room and home appliances, and he can adjust the indoor temperature, lighting, sound and TV system at will according to his own preferences. It is said that 80 kilometers of optical cables have been laid in this house, and the whole house cost as much as 530 million dollars. Some people joke that "smart home is made of money", which is not something that ordinary people can do. Therefore, the life of ordinary people is far from smart home. However, in recent years, with the maturity of control and information technology, the cost of electronic products has been declining, and smart homes have begun to enter more families. Intelligent life is not an illusion. Kaka smart home puts products in the ordinary consumer class.
