Classification of intelligent hardware

I do not know when the concept of smart hardware swept the streets, intelligent water cups, smart scales, smart locks, smart TV, .... In many people's eyes, the hardware seems to be as long as the sensor, app control and other intelligent elements, is a smart hardware. In my opinion, this level of intelligence is at best a step into the smart threshold of a toe. If normal smart hardware is a 5-year-old child IQ, then such hardware is only 3 months old. So what kind of equipment is intelligent?
first of all, smart hardware should be able to meet the needs of people, the most advanced smart hardware or smart hardware combination should bring us a new life form. So the smart hardware is either created. Either based on traditional hardware, the aim is to make it easier for people to use and produce more efficiently.
Second, intelligent hardware is not the same degree of intelligence. The functional elements that the smart hardware should have include, but are not limited to: connectivity, the ability to sense the external environment, the ability to make judgments based on environmental changes, the capacity to accumulate data and improve their own judgment (i.e., learning ability), and also the devices that can be programmed (so that they can be upgraded and evolved). The most basic function of smart hardware should be to be able to connect, and then according to the functional elements of the hardware, smart device intelligent level can be rough defined as a variety of levels:
The first level, can sense the environment-micro-intelligent sensor-type hardware. Traditional hardware joins sensors and communication modules that enable sensors to perceive external environments and transmit data through communication modules. Data is collected and analyzed by other modules, such as pedometer.
The second level, on the basis of the first level to increase self-regulation capacity-sensor-based intelligent devices. Sensor-based monomer device + software algorithm, can analyze the sensor data directly to make simple operation, such as smart socket when humidity, temperature exceeded automatically cut off the power. At present, most of the smart devices are at this stage, such as smart bulb, intelligent water Cup. This phase of intelligence can be achieved through a simple machine learning algorithm.
The third level, the second level on the basis of increased learning ability and can interact with humans. This kind of intelligent device can improve its decision-making ability according to the change of external environment according to the data collected in the past. At the same time, this smart device also supports the collection of user-specific requirements data. such as the movement of Bang hand ring automatic recognition.
.....
a higher level of intelligence is the automatic perception, analysis, and decision-making, without the need for human involvement. to reach this level, it is necessary to build on the Internet, IoT, cloud computing, big data and so on, and rely on network connectivity capabilities. The sensors of this kind of equipment collect and preprocess all the data, including the personal life of the point drops, the external environment, social environment and other data, through the broadband real-time transmission to the cloud, while the device in real-time according to the instructions in the cloud to make corresponding operations. Such devices must be programmable to support extended and autonomous learning.
The Cloud is responsible for the real-time processing of all the data-understanding, analysis, decision-making, issuing instructions, which require computing power, storage capacity and so on, the use of technology is big data analysis and so on.

Smart devices will be the carrier of the next generation of information platform services, where every business or entrepreneur can combine their products to find a way to improve a person's life details or bring a new life experience to the product.
