[Office Partner Information Center] Last year, Analysys think tank published a special research report on China's smart home market. It is believed that by 2018, with smart home from infrastructure (including systems and big data platforms) to the middle With the improvement of hardware, smart home products will be accepted by the consumer market, and the market scale will reach 180 billion yuan. According to another report released by the media, although 12 companies in China have raised more than 100 million yuan in 2016, and the total financing amount reached 2.66 billion yuan, in fact, in the second half of 2016, the large amount of financing that can be checked so far. In the case of Oribo, the capital is obviously cold. Comparing the two data, even if the relevant artificial intelligence technology is gradually improving, it still can not stop people from optimistic about the smart home market, let alone the cold of capital.

However, for the smart home industry, the author is still relatively optimistic. According to CNET and ColdwellBanker's survey of American smart homes, 28% of Americans already own some kind of smart home products, while in China, this figure has not yet reached 5%. Whether it is foreign or domestic, this value shows us that the development space of the smart home market is still great. 11

In fact, the concept of “smart home” has existed for many years. Previously, when Amazon Echo unexpectedly became popular and swept the US market, this concept was once again concerned. Since then, foreign Google, Apple, domestic Alibaba, Xiaomi and so on have begun to study smart home. Routers, refrigerators, desk lamps... A series of smart home products have been produced. In addition to these traditional home appliances, we have also seen some alternative smart home items, such as robots that can be stunned and can be proud.

Smart home robots between reality and ideals have a long way to go

As a part of smart home, the variety of robots

According to performance, robots can be divided into three categories: industrial robots, service robots and special robots. Among them, service robots can be subdivided into personal/home robots and service robots. In the smart home ecosystem, the robots we mentioned are the former. At present, with the needs of the family and the advanced technology, robots have already entered thousands of households. According to their functions, they are mainly of four types:

Housekeeping robots: As the name implies, the main function of such robots is to do housework. In this respect, the most typical and widely covered are the sweeping robots, such as the blossoming of Cobos, the guardian of extreme thinking, and so on. In addition, there are some mass-produced housekeeping robots, such as Moley's kitchen robot of up to 620,000 yuan, and Boston Dynamics' four-legged robot Spotmini.

Entertainment and leisure robots: From the current smart home robot market, the participants of entertainment and leisure robots should be the most. In entertainment and leisure, the machine is mainly responsible for a escort role, such as the son of Xiaobai, YOBY, Xiaoyou and other robots.

Security Surveillance Robot: In fact, this type of robot also has some overlap with the above robot. As long as it is in operation, the robot will always pay attention to the safety of the home. In addition to sending real-time images, it will also provide early warning and so on, which plays a very good role in security monitoring. Of course, there are also some full-time security monitoring robots, such as robot Riley and so on.

Disability-assisted robots: As defined, the main service targets of such robots are people with limited mobility, and are divided into auxiliary robots such as exoskeleton robots and standing robots. In some old-age care institutions, some robots have already been put into use, and in the home, the penetration rate is very low. After all, not every family can afford the high price of robots.

Becoming one of the entrances, the future of the robot

Last month, Google released the smart speaker GoogleHOME, and then connected to Amazon's smart speaker Echo, many people began to claim that smart speakers are the only entrance to smart home. In this regard, the author has also written that smart speakers are not the only entrance to smart homes, modular products are the best solution. In fact, in the end, whether it is a smart speaker or a combination product, the speech recognition and natural language understanding used are one of the entry standards for smart home.

When people are eager to delve into smart speakers and smart home traditional hardware, some people say that "robot is the last key to smart home." According to the current development, we may not be able to conclude this conclusion, but in the eyes of robot manufacturers, robots are part of the future smart home control center.

In terms of performance, the robot will assume the role of "housekeeper"

When watching Iron Man, in addition to Robert Downey Jr and the cool and cool fighting scenes, the artificial intelligence also made people fascinated, especially AI housekeeper Jarvis. In real life, Facebook's Zuckerberg also created an AI housekeeper similar to Jarvis, but compared to Jarvis's AI system with eyes, mouth and brain, it seems that the robot is more practical. In addition to data analysis, home appliance control and voice interaction, it can also be personally serviced, and the tea can be delivered to the water.

For the function of the robot, Sun Zhao, the operation manager of Extreme Thinking, said: The primary responsibility of the robot is to meet the basic needs of the people. In addition to cleaning the family and accompanying the relationship, the robot should be able to feedback the family situation information to the consumer on time and give Recommendations for improvement. In addition, Kong Xiangzhan, CEO of Youer Robot Technology, said that the robot is a platform-type product, people can implement various functions on it, or add various functional modules, which makes it a feature of smart home entry-level products. . In the future, robots are more of a smart butler and intelligent assistant.

At present, in the technology of speech recognition, image recognition and so on, many research teams have achieved quite good results, and the effect can be almost comparable to human beings. However, due to certain technical and environmental constraints, the current robot is still in a low-intelligence stage, and does not have the qualifications and capabilities that a butler should have.

Control, the robot and the APP in parallel

As mentioned in the previous article, when Google released the smart home speaker control center after Amazon, the remarks about "smart speakers are the only entrance to smart homes" are very rampant, and in this atmosphere, there is another clear stream, indicating that the robot is The last key to smart home. In fact, in view of the current behavioral habits of people, whether it is integrated into the mobile phone APP, smart speakers or robots, as long as it exists alone, it is bound to not fully meet the needs of users.

As Qiu Nan, CEO of Gongzi Xiaobai Robot, said: “In smart homes, robots and mobile APPs are a parallel relationship, and the functions of the two are largely coincident, covering users of different ages.” Kong Xiangzhan also said that the robot as a control center, it must be connected to the portable smart product such as mobile phones, in order to achieve its greatest value.

In the smart home, Amazon's Echo should be the king, but it still has its own short board - outdoor control. Indoors, with the help of artificial intelligence voice assistant Alexa and third-party service providers on the platform, people can realize functions such as taxiing, shopping, and controlling home appliances. However, when going outdoors, Echo has no use. At this time, there is a smart home control center APP HomeKit similar to Apple, so that people can still control the home appliances when they go out, such as opening the air conditioner in advance in the cold winter, releasing hot water, going directly to the greenhouse and soaking hot water. Taking a shower, it is a matter of physical and mental well-being. Of course, this parallel mobile product is not necessarily a mobile phone. As long as it has basic speech recognition technology, things like bracelets, watches, necklaces and the like can achieve this function.
