As the former &ldquo, the world factory &rdquo, the Chinese traditional household appliance industry is accelerating the exploration and application of various AI technologies to meet the diverse needs of the consumer side, seeking the &ldquo of the whole industry, and upgrading &rdquo by intelligence.



Can collect the temperature, humidity, air quality index, establish and update the cleaning plan sweeping robot; regular monitoring of food in the refrigerator shelf life, suggesting that outdated information, but also intelligent refrigerator automatically generated menu, help users shopping plan; connected with the smart bracelet, according to the health condition of the user to adjust the working mode of the air conditioning and air purifier if you go out; forget to turn off the gas, intelligent gas stove can be immediately sent to the user's mobile phone alarm, or according to the instructions to take the initiative to close the range … … these sounds like in science fiction film products, is China major appliance enterprise laboratory, production workshop and online sales platform into reality.



The day before, Hefei MeiLing has released a smart cooling distribution and intelligent identification technology “ &rdquo wisdom; refrigerator, not only can automatically identify ingredients, suggesting that outdated information, also broke the frozen natural partition of traditional refrigerator, according to the wishes of the user according to the required temperature, switch at any time. Before that, MeiLing has released a brand-new product based on intelligent control fresh technology system, which is supported by intelligent, frequency conversion and fresh control three technologies, and is the main high-end market.



“ on the Internet is Bill · and Gates's words: in the future, a house without smart home system will be out of fashion just like the house that can't be online today. Maybe now we think fresh technology will become very common in just a few years! &rdquo, said Liu Jun, a Hefei citizen who has just replaced an intelligent refrigerator at home and added a sweeping robot.



The Industrial Research Institute released the "2017 Chinese Artificial Intelligence Industry Research Report" shows that in 2016 China artificial intelligence market has reached 9 billion 661 million yuan, a growth rate of 37.9%, the size of the artificial intelligence market continues to grow, which is expected to exceed 13 billion yuan in 2017 and is expected to break through 20 billion yuan in 2018.



Smart home is one of the important applications of artificial intelligence. The report released by suning.com, a well-known household appliance sales platform in China, shows that during the eleven golden week this year, the sales of home appliance products with a unit price of more than 7000 yuan is over 170%, and most of these high-end products are equipped with AI technology.



Industry experts believe that, like Liu Jun young and middle-class families have become the main force in the Chinese consumption of appliances, they are as smart appliances &ldquo high technology content, and does not pay; ” lack of spending power, they need to be more high-end features and experience.



“ carry out the new concept of development, building a modern economic system has become an important content of ” nineteen of the report, and in this part, first proposed is to deepen the structural reform of the supply side “ ” &ldquo, at the same time; to promote the Internet, big data, artificial intelligence and the depth of the real economy integration ”.



“ with the rapid development of intelligent, networking, intelligent Home Furnishing is entering the fast track of development, while the global intelligent home appliances is the first step in the long march ‘ ’, the future is still a long way, the market is also very broad, enterprises need continued investment, technology innovation. ” at the 2017 Conference on domestic electrical appliances technology held in 2017, Jiang Feng, director of the China Household Electrical Appliance Association, said that.



Many market consultants say that the appliance industry as &ldquo and &rdquo, which are closest to consumers, are speeding up this new path, and the enthusiasm of famous enterprises to launch new products is also increasing.

According to the insiders, AI will not only make the traditional Chinese household appliance industry once known in the world find a new growth point of production and marketing, but also bring out a new business mode from it.



Previously, the Ministry of industry and information technology sponsored by CCID Institute of artificial intelligence and wisdom of the family “ ” round table forum, Haier artificial intelligence robot director, team leader Li Hongyan predicted the future, artificial intelligence will enable different home appliances through the multi sensors to achieve interoperability, combined with large data, cloud computing user portrait the precise information, mining and recommendation.



“ in this way, the sale of traditional household appliances can be upgraded to a long line of intelligent service mode. ” he thinks.



But insiders also pointed out that &rdquo “ calm; artificial intelligence technology still needs to solve two problems, one is to achieve standardization and sharing platform, intelligent products to different brand may require the user to use different operating platforms, different mobile phone APP download status, make the product interoperability, improve the degree of integration; the two is to develop more intelligent applications based on user experience, make more intelligent, caring home appliance “ ”.
