Concepts such as smart homes and artificial intelligence are heating up in recent years. Ove Cloud Network expects that by 2020, the market penetration of smart air conditioners, washing machines and refrigerators in China will increase to 55%, 45% and 20%, respectively. Although the market is large, smart home products and solutions still have many problems to be solved in the process of landing. A few days ago, at the summit of the air-conditioning industry organized by the China National Grid, Kang Hengsheng, founder of Yun Zhisheng, said that smart home development is still facing at least three major problems.
Smart home faces three major challenges
Recently, market research company statista data shows that last year China's smart home market reached 40.340 billion yuan, an increase of 41%. It is estimated that by 2018, China's smart home market will reach 130 billion yuan, and the future annual compound growth rate will reach 48% or so. The scale of the smart home market is showing rapid growth, and the entire industry will enter a period of rapid expansion.
Xiao Bian noticed that while the smart home sector is constantly heating up, the traditional home appliance intelligent transformation still faces many difficulties. There are three main problems faced in the intelligentization of traditional home appliances:
One is the lack of interconnection technology and limited data collection. If it is not possible to collect data effectively and analyze it based on the data, intelligence cannot be achieved.
The second is the high cost of intelligent products, landing difficult. The transition from traditional industrial manufacturing to intelligentization involves issues such as R&D, operation, and promotion. It is truly in-depth to the user's home, and the cost to be invested by manufacturers is high.
Voice interaction into smart home standard
Currently, there are three types of human-computer interactions in artificial intelligence technology: speech interaction, gesture recognition, image recognition, and somatosensory interaction. Human-computer interaction control methods based on voice interaction will become the standard and entrance of the smart home industry.
Smart voice technology has been widely used in the home field. The daily activation of voice on billions of APPs is only 1%-2%, while the daily activation on smart TVs is 100%, and the daily call volume is dozens of times.
From the perspective of the application characteristics of the intelligent home, it has been presented with features such as mobile application, far-field speech recognition, natural speech interaction, module standardization, and so on. Speech interactive recognition is increasingly important.
The current intelligent voice technology performance also has the following characteristics:
Voice wake-up: high-performance wake-up engine (response
Offline command word recognition control: support local 30-300 control command recognition. (
Source localization: It can locate the speaker's position and far-field recognition.
A variety of prompts: can provide real-life recording; can be synthesized through the TTS PCM and manual debugging, improve sound quality.
Smart TV/box information can focus on smart TV information network sofa butler (http://), China's influential TV box and smart TV website, providing information, communication, TV boxes, smart TVs, smart TV software, etc. Answering questions.
