Smart home bid farewell to "conceptualization" era Changhong five major business first market

OFweek smart home network News Recently, the 2017 Asian International Consumer Electronics Show ended in Shanghai. At this exhibition, emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and 3D printing became the highlights of the show. In terms of smart single product, Hisense introduced a dual-screen mobile phone A2, JD.com launched the Jingdong smart refrigerator... Intelligentization is not surprising to be the main tone of this CES.

Through this Asia International Consumer Electronics Show, it can be found that the mainstream Internet companies and home appliance companies are moving from stacking hardware to intelligent development. Behind wearables, lighting, curtains and other products, more and more companies have begun to attach importance to controlling other different intelligent hardware (such as air conditioners, water heaters, washing machines, etc.) with control centers (such as televisions and mobile phones). The smart home industry is entering an unprecedented period of bloom. The smart home model also bred a variety of economic growth drivers.

Smart home conceptualization era - entry dispute, protocol access

In recent years, if the smart home industry chain is combed, it can be found that smart home is a highly integrated industry with many participants. Such as Google, Baidu and other software, data support companies, such as Changhong, Haier and other intelligent hardware manufacturers, as well as lighting, curtains, and even medical, real estate and other enterprises can participate. While many companies have participated in the development of the smart home industry, a problem that has to be addressed has gradually emerged.

For all companies, the "entry" of smart homes is the key. For example, some companies use televisions, mobile phones (Changhong CHiQ TVs, Huawei hilinks) as entrances to smart homes, and some companies use speakers (Amazon Echo speakers) as entrances, and companies use refrigerators (JD.com) as the center of smart homes. The same holds true for smart curtains, intelligent lighting, and so on.

According to industry observers, the composition of the smart home industry is very complicated. The "entrance" dispute and the underlying agreement have slowed down the development and popularization of smart homes.

“As of now, the smart home industry has more intelligent single products that focus on companies and technology, and it can truly break out of the concept of smart homes. The realization of the smart home platform is open, and there are very few companies that apply solutions to the ground. The above experts said.

Changhong's overall performance at this CES has injected more thinking into the future development of the smart home industry.

With customers as the core, the five businesses took the lead in marketization

At the CES show, Changhong showed thousands of visitors to its smart home chief CHiQ TV, energy-saving environmental protection Meiling Internet of things refrigerators, and artificial voice smart air-conditioning.

At the same time, Changhong has established a three-dimensional channel of “operator + housing business + agent + online shopping mall” based on the five business directions of intelligent control, security, large media, energy, and health. Relying on UP's IOT operation support platform, it coordinated with Changhong's comprehensive capabilities in intelligent R&D, smart manufacturing, intelligent operations, and intelligent transactions, and achieved full marketization of the above five business directions.

Hong Shibin, an industry observer, believes that Changhong has jumped out of the traditional “product thinking” and is setting up a set of application solutions that can satisfy the full range of interactions of users’ lives with users and their needs as the core.

“Intelligent control, energy and other services are among the highest hits in consumer life. Compared to the launch of single-item intelligent hardware, Changhong has a higher foothold. Changhong had mastered the IPP connection framework protocol technology a few years ago. To meet the interconnection and interconnection of different home appliances and home terminals, under the IPP connection framework agreement, different products can be controlled by each other. In the 'object + connection' smart ecosystem, the user's needs will be solved by the corresponding solutions. Changhong brings users a better life experience with modern technology,” said Hong Shibin.

According to Changhong's “Thirteenth Five-Year Plan” development plan, Changhong will focus on the user experience in the next three years. It will also be used in security, smart speakers, electronic cat eyes, smart door locks, and smart bracelets. At the same time, relying on the comprehensive advantages of Changhong Group, as well as smart home appliances, consumer electronics, smart manufacturing, core components and other industrial advantages, Changhong Science & Technology exerts its R&D advantages to quickly realize intelligent transformation.

2.54mm Female Pin Header

2.54mm (0.1") Pitch Female Headers
Overview
The most commonly seen female headers are 2.54mm (0.1") single or double row female/socket headers. These female headers together with its male counterpart are used in connecting Arduino boards and shields together. 2.54mm pitch female sockets/headers are low-profile connectors designed for signal and low power PC board connections when space is at a premium. They have the perfect height for clearing the USB-B connector and great for stacking multiple shields.
Since 2.54mm pitch female header is commonly used in a lot of applications, Scondar offers numerous options for this type of female header. Orientation can either be SMT or THM, single, dual or triple row. Antenk offers 2.54mm pitch female headers in either vertical or right-angle orientation. The pins and blades are also available in various sizes, counts, amperages, and plating.

The 2.54mm can accommodate a maximum current of 3A, with a 30 to 22 AWG wire size, and up to 40-positions. Antenk offers these female headers in high quality and affordable China-quoted price that snuggly fits with the pins of a male header and acts as a receptacle.
