With the rapid development of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and edge computing (Edge CompuTIng) in recent years, the various consumer electronics and home appliances included in the concept of smart home will undergo revolutionary changes. In the end, an artificial intelligence network of home devices may become another family member you can't see. The concept of local cloud and related devices will be an indispensable element in the realization of home artificial intelligence networks. Researcher Ronan de Renesse, who is responsible for tracking consumer technology development at research firm Ovum, said that the application of AI in consumer electronics has often become the focus of media attention in the past year or two, but the trend of combining consumer electronics with AI is just beginning. Development only. In the next three to five years, many consumer electronics products will be equipped with AI functions, and will be connected to each other to form an artificial intelligence network in the home. For the hardware industry chain, this trend will bring many new business opportunities, but from a higher level, this artificial intelligence network that is quietly entering the home will become another one you can't see. "family member". As far as the hardware is concerned, the smart speakers that are familiar to you are basically a relatively mature product. Although the sales volume will increase significantly in the next five years, the growth momentum will gradually slow down. It is estimated that by 2022, the sales of global smart speakers will be close to $9.5 billion. In fact, Renesse believes that Amazon and Google may not launch their own branded smart speakers in the future, because the profit margins of such products are not big. For these two Internet giants, as long as they are hard. The industry players use their platform services to collect the user data they need, and the goal is achieved. During the same period, changes in products such as home smart monitoring systems will be more noticeable than smart speakers. At present, the so-called home intelligent monitoring products do not have the components of artificial intelligence, but connect the hardware products such as cameras, alarms, door locks and Sensors to each other to form a security system that supports the Event Trigger function. However, as the related software and hardware technologies become more mature, the ratio of artificial surveillance cameras equipped with artificial intelligence will become higher and higher in the future, and more applications can be realized, for example, with voice assistants, in a multi-person environment. More accurately provide different services for multiple users. However, for the hardware industry, the most notable, perhaps the concept of the local cloud (Local Cloud) and related applications, will start with the general support of AI in the home equipment. Renesse pointed out that electronic products equipped with AI functions generate a large amount of user data, and many of them are information about personal privacy. Therefore, if these home electronic products equipped with artificial intelligence can rely on the external cloud to operate, it will obviously cause privacy concerns. On the other hand, many consumer IoT devices with relatively simple functions are limited by power, computing power, production cost, etc., and may not be able to support very high-order AI algorithms. At this time, the local cloud device will play the role of the brain, and uniformly issue orders to these devices. But Renesse also admitted that it is difficult to say which device will play the local cloud center. It may be a higher-end smart speaker, or it may be a smart TV or a router with an application processor.
