In the intelligent home aspect, last year has made some famous domestic team, sleepy fear not many. There are two of them to "light" as the starting point of the company, do a good job, one is Tsinghua's Team Phantom Teng, the other is from Qingdao Yeelink.

has been heard Yeelink name, did not chat, yesterday to see Yeelink founder Kang Shaoning, chat up let me one of the biggest feelings is: Smart home/Internet and the traditional communications industry has a huge connection, but also the communications industry personnel, the transformation of entrepreneurship to seize this wave of intelligent hardware tide of the opportunity to enter the mouth.

  

(Kang Shaoning to the right)

Kang Shaoning's work trajectory is actually mainly in Qingdao, the home appliance capital. First in Lucent to do the traditional switch technology research and development work, and then in Haier made set-top box research and development, May 2012 and friends start to do Yeelink, starting point is the open things networking platform and intelligent lamp products.

"Open Object Networking platform" I simply understood as a smart home unified interface, many do smart home enterprises in the current or lack of norms of the stage, all want to define their own rules, this for ordinary consumers, indifferent, at the same time for consumers, can see what kind of products are the most important.

  

Yeelink the most easy to understand the product is actually yeelight intelligent lamp products, pictured above is called Yeelink Blue intelligent Atmosphere lamp, similar to Philips Hue, but the price is only about 1/5 of his. The color atmosphere and brightness of the lamp can be controlled remotely by mobile phone.

Before meeting chat I to Kang Shaoning impression is a likes to share the person, they one does the intelligent hardware product enterprise, but is in the media heart, often will dismantle to share some foreign intelligence product, the intelligent home class main. such as Nest products, Philips Hue lamp and so on. As he says, leaving a business is a lot to do with the thought shock that Nest brought before the United States.

Yeelink Business for the domestic smart hardware team I think is very enlightening, their yeelight products, although the main product, but the profit model is diverse, in the face of ordinary consumer retail is only a small piece of enterprise customization, such as hotel, building a set of system installation The export of foreign trade is now a very important channel for them, Kang Shaoning said; Of course I think it also with their investment background there are officials, in early 2013 received the hardware incubator Haxlr8r hatch, but also won the Silicon Valley VC Sosventures Angel Investment.
