Today, Samsung Electronics held the first CES conference, released virtual reality milk VR, music and video service software milk music & videos, cleaning robot PowerBot, SSD mobile hard disk, Active wash washing machine, wireless transmission quick Connect, SmartThings Hub, new sensor, home subscription service SmartThings Premium, and smart TV SUHD TV product line. You're right, these are just the first press conferences, which means there's a second, third game.
Of course, in addition to the launch of Samsung today, its President and CEO also published a call on the internet of things. He said that the era of Internet of things had come, and hoped that the industry would cooperate widely to open the infinite possibility of internet of things. He said: "The Internet of Things is no longer a science fiction film, it is now a scientific fact." "That exactly also said what, the author for you to organize as follows."
1. Samsung in 17 to achieve 90% electronic product networking, 20, the realization of all things networking equipment
B.k Yoon, Samsung's president and CEO, said at the meeting: "By 2017, all Samsung TVs will become Internet devices and 90% of its electronics will support networking." By the year 2020, all Samsung hardware devices will support the Internet, whether it be an air purifier or an oven.
2. Samsung will create an open Internet ecosystem
Samsung's products will span a variety of platforms and not just support their own platforms, Yoon said. "If all the sensors and all the devices work together, we can create the future of the IoT," he said. Our Internet of things and accessories and equipment will be open. ”
BMW executive Elmar Frickenstein was invited to the stage to talk about BMW's collaboration with Samsung on smart watches and tablets. "BMW, come and pick me up," Yoon on the smart watch that started. "Then, the following screen starts playing the corresponding .... Video. (Why no Live demo ~)
SmartThings CEO Alex Hawkinson, a smart home open platform bought by Samsung High-priced last year, was invited to the stage, saying: "The Internet must be open to success, and any device on any platform must be able to interact with other devices." We are trying to make it happen, and we are committed to putting users first and giving them as many choices and freedoms as possible. ”
3. Developers are important
Yoon also stressed the importance of developers ' networking for construction and announced that Samsung would invest more than $100 million trillion in its developer community in 2015. Also, plan and extend international developer activity through accelerators to support its developer community. And behind Jawbone CEO Hosain Rahman also onstage expressed the importance of the developer.
4. Invest heavily in top-notch start-ups
To prepare ahead, Samsung needs to invest heavily in developers and start-ups to exploit the data collected by these new devices to develop valuable applications. In his speech, Yoon deliberately referred to an intelligent hardware called earlysense. The product can be placed under the mattress, can be detected by early detection problems to diagnose the user's possible health risks. This product can understand the patient's sleep quality, and determine the sleep status of any problems reflected.
Yoon says his job is to find companies that are developing top-tier products and to use the necessary measures to fully exploit their market potential.
5. The safety of IoT is important
Yoon also stressed the issue of Internet security. He believes that the security issue is a test of the internet of things, but also the test of cooperation. Just as industry people say, only security issues become the unspoken rules of the industry, that is, a people do not go back to touch the industry bottom line, the development of the Internet of things to stretch. For example, the current information on the Internet, the majority of enterprises to comply with the user's data and to undermine the rules of the people to give a strong blow, will be in good direction.
6. The first step in realizing the internet of Things
Yoon believes that in the age of Internet of things, sensors become more advanced and accurate, key components will become more compact, and efficient energy saving. Samsung is already developing a new three-dimensional distance sensor that detects the slightest movement, similar to the sensor's ability to understand a person's surroundings and provide the right solutions and services. Samsung is also studying chips, such as embedded stacking package chips (Epop) and bio-processor, which are energy efficient and compact enough to suit wearable and mobile devices.
"Adding the IoT ecosystem equipment and the components that make it work is the first step in realizing the internet of things," he said. Samsung released more than 665 million products last year, including a large number of Internet-connected devices, and Samsung is currently doing what it can to uncover the hidden value of interconnected devices and everyday objects. ”
7. Solidarity to achieve a better life in the Internet of Things
At the meeting, Yoon called on all walks of life to achieve the internet of things open infinite possibility, must unite together. "The Internet of Things has the potential to change our society, our economy and our way of life," he said. I know that no single company or industry can provide the benefits of the Internet of things. In order to build the field of IoT, we need to see the potential of IoT in various industries. Only by uniting together can the future of the Internet of things be able to improve people's lives. ”
"Businesses need to readjust their business models in order to work together across industry boundaries to create infrastructure and services for things." ”
We all know that the internet of things has been shouting for many years, but why not? Perhaps as Yoon said, this is a need for cooperation to achieve. However, before cooperation, sensor to sell very cheap and accurate measurement, more and more people can use large data, the big guys do not take advantage of the pledge ...
In any case, perhaps Samsung's manifesto could push the industry forward, at least because the people who heard the call were stirring.
