As the Internet of Things penetrates more and more industries, our lifestyle is constantly changing. The Internet of Things is no longer a concept of supremacy, with the in-depth application of technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud and edge computing. Smart home is the current entry point for major companies, and Xiaomi seems to be the most profitable.
As the first among all domestic mobile phone manufacturers to receive smart home dividends, Xiaomi has shown a rapid growth trend in the consumer-level Internet of Things, and IOT and AI will support Xiaomi's future. With more than 100 million Internet of Things devices connected, as of the end of July, the monthly activity of the smart speaker Xiao Ai alone exceeded 30 million+.
Recently, Xiaomi Group released its first financial report. In the second quarter, it achieved revenue of 45.235 billion yuan, an increase of 68.3% year-on-year, and realized a net profit of 2.117 billion yuan, an increase of 25.1% year-on-year. The biggest highlight is that the revenue of Xiaomi's Internet of Things smart home IoT and consumer products was 10.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 104.3% and doubled!
Smart home is currently the most promising industry in the field of Internet of Things. According to relevant data, the market size this year is as high as 96 billion US dollars and will grow to 277 billion yuan by 2020, which is about 1.9 trillion yuan in RMB. In the face of this rapidly developing emerging market, almost all mobile phone manufacturers have entered the smart home to open up the smart hardware market except for mobile phones.
In order not to be marginalized, Apple and Samsung have also launched smart speakers and smart platforms, but the Apple platform is subject to the quantity and price of hardware, and Samsung is not ideal because the domestic market is already not ideal.
Smart home, as the most potential market at present, has formed a phenomenon of giants getting together. Traditional manufacturers are transforming and upgrading one after another, and the entire industry is driving the popularization of smart homes as if it is a chicken blood. As the ecosystem built by the giants becomes more and more mature, an endless stream of smart hardware has entered millions of families.
For smart homes to truly move from concept to mature application, it is necessary to break the three laws of "smart single products, standardized manufacturing, and functional services", and evolve rapidly toward the direction of "complete interconnection, on-demand customization, and ecological services". Provide users with overall smart home solutions, including smart home central control, smart lighting, smart security, smart audio and video and other one-stop solutions, and take the initiative in smart home scenarios.
The wave of the Internet of Things is driving the changes of the entire era. Next, whether it is a smart home or a smart city, our lives will bring considerable changes!
