Lenovo Smart + Speaker

How to break through "equipment + cloud" and "infrastructure + cloud"? Lenovo Group senior vice president and CTO Yong Yong used Lenovo smart heart electric clothes, Lenovo smart speakers two products to answer this question. The former is the world's first 12-lead medical wireless smart electric sweater, which collects physical data in real time through the front end, and analyzes the collected data through the AI ​​at the back end to provide health monitoring and medical warning services; the latter is for children. Education, through the device-side speakers, projections, cameras, object recognition and augmented reality interaction, matching children's educational resources in the cloud.

At this point, Lenovo's "device + cloud" strategy has basically begun to emerge: through the cloud, the current terminal needs the service content, and then presented.

The goal of Lenovo's "Smart Lenovo" application is to connect Lenovo and even other partners. At present, the companies that cooperate with Lenovo have already included giants in the terminal field such as Samsung, Philips and so on.

Smart Lenovo: a smart platform for connecting terminals and services

Jia Zhaohui, senior vice president of Lenovo Group, introduced that smart Lenovo is not only providing users with intelligent device management and cloud service applications, but also an open IoT ecosystem platform that Lenovo users intend to promote.

For example, the home equipment automatically activates the home mode according to the owner's location information, turns on the air conditioner and the air purifier in advance; opens the door through the smart door lock of face recognition and fingerprint recognition; the voice control TV automatically catches the drama - provided by Lenovo Cloud service, on any Lenovo device, through the same account, can achieve breakpoint playback.

At the same time, as the entrance of various intelligent terminals, it connects many users' devices, as the control center of the Internet of Things, and may access more non-Lenovo devices in the future. Lenovo's role will no longer be a traditional hardware manufacturer, but a service provider.

Yang Yuanqing believes that the fourth industrial revolution of mankind is artificial intelligence.

Lenovo developed the UDS cloud platform, a data center based on a hybrid cloud architecture of public and private clouds.

Provide user support.

“The UDS cloud platform has artificial intelligence algorithms that can integrate various devices to make smart home scenarios more practical—and there are a lot of technologies that look cool in the lab, but not practical in the home. These are not the main purpose of our UDS cloud platform," Jia Zhaohui replied. "In actual operation, this technical system will be planned and operated together with the regional sales team. The focus of planning and operation is to solve the problem of users. The problems encountered in the product life cycle, to achieve the 'equipment + cloud service' operating model."
