Wearable equipment wave, this year is very hot

wearable equipment wave, this year is very hot, but now may be the cause of winter, it is somewhat deserted. Remember, Fitbit flex? Remember Nike FuelBand? Remember Jawbone Up?

The tide is back, and wearable equipment does have a lot of people swimming naked. Last year, wearable equipment, especially the smart hand ring to earn enough yell and eyeball, in the face of today's solitude, or there are more courageous people, such as Baidu.

Baidu in May this year, the joint network released a "Thump Hand ring", the main "sports status alert", "Sleep monitoring" and "intelligent Silent awakening." In many domestic smart hand ring, Baidu plump sales is still good. Now, Baidu intends to redouble its efforts, push another smart hand ring, product name: Boomband, nickname BB ring.

Well, the name Boomband or BB ring sounds a lot higher than the "thump" style.

and "thump" like, Boomband, but also Baidu traffic and entrance set up, others in an opera. This time, however, it is not working with internet companies, but with stronger traditional hardware companies. Baidu to the resources, is still the entrance flow, as well as Baidu Cloud. BB Ring's main function, like other smart bracelet, are sports, sleep and docking with mobile phones, but with a thump, Jawbone up these pioneers (and perhaps martyrs), we also have reason to believe that its experience may be more good.

Why does Baidu insist on making smart hand rings? The simplest answer to this question is that this is a strategic need. You see, 360 is not also made a child safety guardian's wearable?

in detail, the smart bracelet is just a table, and the data collected behind the device is inside. You see so many wearable devices, all in the main "health data", behind nothing more than trying to build "personal health cloud" efforts. So you will see that the thump bracelet is based on the development of Baidu Cloud. This time, so is the BB ring.

Baidu Cloud, 2013 offensive, but also the product of hundreds of millions of users. For example, made a 1 yuan to send 1T hard disk space activities, and hurriedly get a free 2T space activities, last month, Baidu also invested in the Hundred mobile phone ... Behind this is Baidu Cloud, Baidu Mobile strategy is a core.

Internal Baidu for personal attention to the cloud, a big reason is that it may change Baidu's corporate genes, originally, Baidu is the product of the company, the charge is business-to-business, and personal cloud let Baidu and consumers closer to the distance, can expand the profitability of the consumer space.

The meaning of Gmail to Google, but also the meaning of personal cloud for Baidu. Among the bat three giants, Ali and Tencent have a huge consumer account system, personal cloud can let Baidu set up a consumer account system, in the competition with Ali, Tencent to make up for the shortage. Whether it is social, games, E-commerce and so on business, Tencent and Ali complex business system, the most basic and fundamentalIs the user account system.

So, Baidu Cloud choose Partner, also have no past arrogance--100% mobile phone, thump NET is actually entrepreneurial company.

Of course, if only the cloud disk storage, will also drag the personal cloud competition to an exaggerated situation, just like these two years mobile phone competition, from single core to dual core, then to four core, eight core-if only the cloud disk storage, it is destined to become, from 100G to 200G, and then to 1T, Even more parameters. Cloud disk storage It is first of all personal cloud Foundation, but more, personal cloud should also provide to the user special value.

Baidu Cloud services, to provide users with cloud albums, Cloud notes, in addition, there is a personal health cloud. Users can use wearable equipment, the statistics to the data sent to the Baidu Health cloud. Baidu Cloud Head said, not limited in the network disk storage function, in fact, Baidu Cloud a year users will be an important reason.

Covet the personal health cloud Baidu, has the Shiri hunger and thirst feeling, thus, after the thump, also can push the BB ring. As a data platform, Baidu hopes its smart bracelet can work with more partners.

The next question is, who does the BB ring work with?

Millet Company or Huawei? Or a new investment company 100%? Or is this this year to work together to do a TV tcl? Zenew is more optimistic about TCL, after all, this year's love of Qi Yi-tcl Intelligent Television Conference, Li and Li but in 798 big bask in the situation.
