Adding a WIFI is a smart home? Smart home is not the case

The arrival of the era of smart home has brought the world a lot of new opportunities, but many companies are not optimistic, but they are frowning and overwhelmed. These enterprises are mostly traditional home equipment manufacturers such as door locks, lighting, switches, sockets, and home appliances. When others are welcoming smart springs, they are faced with the winter of traditional home equipment.

With the accumulation of original technology, capital, and experience, traditional home equipment manufacturers have something to eat, perhaps not directly overwhelmed by the wave of intelligent Internet of Things, and died quickly before the arrival of spring. However, as consumers' demand for intelligent hardware continues to grow, traditional home equipment manufacturers must change their traditional ideas, seize new opportunities, and seek further breakthroughs to achieve a prosperous transformation.

The popularity of smart homes requires a process. Before the smart homes completely enter the public home, traditional home equipment manufacturers must have a change of pain, but this is precisely an important period of gasping. In this period, how to keep up with the pace of the times, from "traditional" transformation to "smart" will be very crucial.

For traditional equipment manufacturers, moving toward smart hardware is the best choice. As for how this road goes, it basically chooses a “gradient” – gradually transitioning to smart equipment vendors. In the process, it seems that the traditional equipment manufacturer's life-saving straw, WiFi module for upgrading to smart homes "has come into being." The WiFi module does make a big difference to traditional devices. At least in the era of Internet of Everything, "WiFi module + legacy device" will have two unprecedented effects.



Traditional devices can access the Internet. Under normal circumstances, the mass consumer households have limited access to the Internet, generally limited to routers, computers, notebooks, mobile phones and other products, other devices can not connect with the Internet. Once the WiFi module is implanted, this situation will be completely changed, and home appliances and the like will become Internet access devices.

Traditional equipment is more convenient to operate. After the WiFi module is plugged in and connected to the Internet, traditional devices can be connected to the Internet, and even devices can be connected through the Internet. According to the Internet of Things thinking, this provides them with a quick operation mode - mobile phone or computer. control. At present, no matter what traditional equipment, as long as the WiFi module can be implanted, it can realize the control of the mobile phone app or computer software, and improve the efficiency of the consumer's family life to some extent.

The huge change brought by the WiFi module to the traditional equipment, does it mean that it will be upgraded into a smart home? I am afraid it is not entirely true. The WiFi module makes the traditional device have the most basic properties of the smart home, but does not really grasp the intelligent kernel of the smart home.

The WiFi module is implanted, and the traditional device upgrade can only achieve some functions. As an embodiment of the Internet under the influence of the Internet, Smart Home is a management system that builds efficient residential facilities and family schedules. It connects various devices (lighting, curtains, air conditioners, security, etc.) in the home through Internet of Things technology. And provide a variety of functions and means such as home appliance control, energy-saving lighting, security protection, environmental monitoring, health management, infrared forwarding and programmable timing control.

Smart home = home smart + connected. According to the definition of smart home itself, and the domestic IoT leader, IoT Sensing, smart home is a system that requires each device in the system to be intelligent first, and these devices can be interconnected. Collaborative work. The device with the WiFi module is only connected to the Internet.

Efficient is not equal to intelligence. The filling of the WiFi module enables the traditional home appliances to “cut the road” and quickly realize the “intelligence”, support the mobile phone app and control, and improve the efficiency to some extent, such as remote switch. however. Efficient is one of the many "fruits" of intelligence. In addition to high efficiency, intelligence should become smarter, such as perceiving the surrounding environment, detecting surrounding dynamics, deep learning and so on.



It can be seen that the traditional device implanted with the WiFi module is an upgrade method, but the upgraded level is relatively far, lower than the actual intelligence, and the traditional equipment manufacturer needs to be further improved. So, what more needs to be done after the WiFi module is implanted?

On the basis of strengthening the connection, improve the level of intelligence. This requires an enhancement of perception, detection and learning capabilities, which can now be classified as a reasonable use of sensors in the field of smart homes. The implantation of the WiFi module enables traditional devices to be networked, and the use of sensors can make traditional devices more "smart". For example, with an ambient light detector, some smart light bulbs can automatically turn on, adjust brightness, change color, and turn off depending on the brightness of ambient light.

Enhance the security of the WiFi module. The WiFi module belongs to the IoT transport layer. The function is to convert the serial port or TTL level into an embedded module conforming to the WiFi wireless network communication standard, and the built-in wireless network protocol IEEE802.11b.gn protocol stack and TCP/IP protocol stack. Traditional hardware devices embedded in the WiFi module can directly use WiFi to connect to the Internet to implement IoT applications. However, in the field of Internet of Things, the security of the WiFi standard protocol has been criticized. The WiFi smart home system has been difficult to crack and is easy to become a hacker's "bag of things."



Be wary of the ulterior motive behind the WiFi module. This question is not big, it is not small, but it must not be relaxed. As far as traditional devices are concerned, the biggest advantage of the WiFi module is the ability to connect to the Internet, but this is precisely the hidden danger for traditional equipment vendors, because WiFi supports OTA, supports remote and solid state updates. The biggest danger brought by this hidden danger is not the security of the WiFi technology itself, but the smart home device based on this module may be utilized by the WiFi module provider.

All in all, trying to upgrade the traditional home devices such as door locks, lighting, switches, sockets, and home appliances into smart devices by means of implanting a WiFi module can achieve certain intelligence. However, this intelligence is not only the lowest level, but also has certain security risks. In other words, the choice of WiFi module upgrade intelligence is simple and fast, but the late "repair" work can be very troublesome.

A flange can also be a plate or ring to form a rim at the end of a pipe when fastened to the pipe. A blind flange is a plate for covering or closing the end of a pipe. A flange joint is a connection of pipes, where the connecting pieces have flanges by which the parts are bolted together.

Although the word flange generally refers to the actual raised rim or lip of a fitting, many flanged plumbing fittings are themselves known as 'flanges':

There are many different flange standards to be found worldwide. To allow easy functionality and interchangeability, these are designed to have standardised dimensions. Common world standards include ASA/ASME (USA), PN/DIN (European), BS10 (British/Australian), and JIS/KS (Japanese/Korean). In the USA, ANSI stopped publishing B16.5 in 1996, and the standard is ASME B16.5
