In 2016, the Internet of Things was written into the 13th Five-Year Plan, and it will also become the highlight of the Shenzhen Yunqi Conference on April 20 this year. The spark of the Internet of Things has quietly blossomed.
It is said that VR is the hottest industry in the technology circle in 2016. No one can say No. As an important member of wearable devices, the popularity of VR has already sounded the horn of the Internet of Things.
According to Gartner's data, there are an estimated 6.4 billion devices worldwide in 2016. By 2020, this number will grow to 20.8 billion units. In addition to Gartner, IMS and IDC have given similar predictions: connected devices will grow several times in five years.
In fact, as early as 1957, Morton Heilig created the first VR, why VR has become popular in recent years. The reason is simple. Only when content providers, equipment manufacturers, channel distributors, and service providers start to flood in, the market will flourish. In recent years, the development of the Internet of Things has been very slow. Until the rise of wearable devices in recent years has only picked up, but in the animal networking industry, in addition to VR, you may need these:
True "interconnection"
The lack of communication standards has always been an important constraint for the development of the Internet of Things. From chipset to operating system, from gateway to application, all industries and individual national standards are in a row, which leads to the terminal and network can not truly achieve "interconnected". ". If the situation of the Internet of Things industry is divided, if it cannot be broken, the user equipment cannot be seamlessly connected. The standard dispute not only exists between enterprises, but even between countries. Since it is impossible to shake the giants, what methods should industry companies use to achieve cross-brand connectivity? The cloud platform gave a good answer.
The same gateway can support a variety of different communication technologies, such as WiFi, Bluetooth, etc., while different terminals access multiple cloud platforms to enable data interconnection and interoperability in the cloud, and ultimately achieve interconnection and interoperability of different products.
In the field of Internet of Things, everyone knows the importance of the unification of communication standards, but if there is no strong enterprise to promote, this process must be slow. Foreign Microsoft, Cisco, Intel, and domestic BAT have already begun to deploy the Internet of Things and promote the customization of the Internet of Things. With the rise of VR, the competition balance between various open standards and blocking company agreements will be broken. The Internet of Things is The debate on whether to open or close will soon be confirmed.
IoT ecosystem closed loop
The Internet of Things industry ecosystem consists of three parts: the infrastructure layer, the platform layer (horizontal), and the application layer (vertical). The infrastructure layer includes chips, sensors, network protocols, operating systems, etc. The platform layer includes developer tools, sensor networks, cloud platforms, etc., and the application layer includes wearable devices, smart homes, car networking, smart medical devices, and the like. Industrial robots, etc.
It can be seen that the coverage of the Internet of Things ecosystem is very wide, and the development of each link is also uneven. Foreign companies such as Microsoft, Apple, AT&T, and domestic Ali and Xiaomi are actively participating in the construction of the closed loop of the Internet of Things ecosystem. Enterprises combine the advantages they have gained to think about the extension of the Internet of Things and leverage each other. For example, AT&T cooperates with cloud computing vendor Salesforce to implement data interconnection of the Internet of Things with its own 4G LTE technology. Another example is Xiaomi's smart camera ant, which uses Alibaba Cloud's cloud computing platform to achieve all-weather mobile monitoring and data privacy.
There are more and more similar cross-border cooperation. No company can do all the things, or play a platform to support the role, or diversify the industry in the perspective of integration. Startups or companies need to be clear in the IoT ecosystem. The positioning, each of its duties, can continuously bring the industry effect of the connection of things.
Safer data transmission
This year's CCTV 315 party has exposed such a scene: the drone that is performing the task is suddenly hijacked, the smart socket in the home is out of control, the lights are flashing, the smart oven breaks through the temperature limit, and the bedroom under the surveillance of the smart camera is unobstructed. The money in the market was unconsciously turned away by the intelligent POS machine... CCTV’s “hacker blockbuster†opened the eyes of the audience.
The issue of IoT security has been ranked by CES2016 as the top five focus issues. Clear text network communication, lack of sensitive information anti-compilation processing, and weak authority management links have all hidden hidden dangers for the development of the Internet of Things. How to ensure that consumers enjoy the dividends safely and reliably, this is probably the top priority for the entire IoT ecosystem chain.
As consumer safety awareness has generally increased, technologies such as communication encryption and biometrics are rapidly gaining popularity. Eco-vendors are also actively researching coping strategies. The domestic cloud computing giant Alibaba Cloud has successively released services such as HTTPS communication encryption and rights management, and cooperated with the Chinese Academy of Sciences to develop quantum communication technology to ensure communication security. In April 20, Shenzhen Yunqi At the conference, Alibaba Cloud will also release a new Internet of Things solution and launch IoT products such as IoT kits.
