Smart air-conditioning will show its way to the future

Just a few days ago, the “2014 National Smart Air Conditioning Trends Report” (hereinafter referred to as the “Report”) released by the Market Information Department of the Ministry of Information Resources Development revealed that the promotion of the smart air conditioner market and the strengthening of smart home appliances have become the home appliance manufacturers. , related industries and consumers are very concerned about the issue. In the future, the traditional air-conditioner sales market will gradually shrink, and smart air-conditioners will rely on the characteristics of socialization, humanization, function compositing, and data terminal development to become the mainstream products that meet the future overall consumption level and individualized consumer demand.

With the release of Haier Tianyi air-conditioning, "artificial intelligence" has become the darling of consumers. At the subsequent large-scale exhibitions such as CES, NEW, and Home Fair, smart home appliances also showed a strong attraction for major manufacturers. Among the many smart products, small wearable devices such as Google Project Glass and Nabu Smart Bracelet, as well as the u+ smart life platform launched by Haier, have demonstrated extremely strong social functions without exception. In this year's "Report" issued by the National Information Center, it is believed that these smart devices will form a large "social network" in the future, and air-conditioning will also become a subject in this social circle. This shows that "socialization" will become an inevitable trend in the future development of intelligent air conditioning.

As the world’s first air conditioner with smart features, the experience brought by Haier Tianyi is subversive. It not only has the advantages of traditional air-conditioning, but also has the characteristics of the Internet era of "self-thinking". It can take the initiative to send messages to users and automatically perform operations such as cleaning. The report believes that the ultimate in intelligent air-conditioning will be the "humanization" of air-conditioning. In other words, air-conditioning will become smarter and smarter. Like a person, it will perceive and self-regulate and create the most pleasant and comfortable living environment.

With the intelligentization and "humanization" of air conditioners, the function of air conditioners will also increase. Take the health function as an example. Now, smart air conditioners already have functions such as removing PM2.5 and removing formaldehyde, while remote control and interconnection of objects have also come into life. In addition, Haier’s newly launched U+ smart life and smart air ecosystem has proposed another “collective intelligence” solution. In the future, smart air-conditioning will move from “individual soldier” to “group army”, and the combination of functions will become a trend.

The "Report" also pointed out that the powerful social and humane features of smart air-conditioning products depend on an interoperable network platform and powerful data collection and processing capabilities. With the development of technology and networks, various factors that support the rapid development of smart home appliances and smart air-conditioning have been basically completed, and air-conditioning will become a collection terminal for various data. For example, sensors can be installed on air-conditioning outdoor units to collect data such as weather changes. In this way, the weather forecast that the user sees will change from the original regional weather forecast to a more accurate community weather forecast. The temperature and humidity of the residential community or destination can be known in real time to better arrange work and life.
