With the continuous development of many technologies and their application in home manufacturing , People pay more attention to when buying smart home “ Smart home makes life have better sleep and rest 、 Life is easy 、 Stay with your family ” Characteristics .

Next , Let's take stock of , What are the relevant smart homes .

• Smart fridge ：
  Before the earth was destroyed , In recent decades , Everyone feels the rise of the overall climate temperature （ No matter which area ）. scorching summer sun , With the development of small household appliances in recent years , Cold drinks 、 Ice cream is no longer standard in stores , Home made , Both parents and children can experience the fun of doing it yourself .

• Intelligent air conditioning ：
  Air conditioning is almost standard in ordinary families （ As long as the voltage allows ）, Good sleep can not be without it .

• Intelligent washing machine ：
  It can be said to be hands free “ tool ”, With the development of Intelligent Technology , Remote control 、 Intelligent hubs are the progress of software and hardware technology that further liberates both hands .

• Intelligent speakers ：
  Storytelling machine 、 Point reading pen 、 Smart speakers are a software aid that can liberate parents , Let children be satisfied “ Ear movement ” At the same time , Parents can also communicate with their children synchronously

• Sweeping robot ：
  Clean the house by yourself ？ Find a third-party housekeeping to worry about financial losses ？ Sweeping robot to help . If we say that intelligent washing machine is the first sharp weapon to liberate our hands , Then the sweeping robot is the second most powerful tool for freeing hands .

What is the ？ Numerous ......

The development of the epidemic in the past two years , Some people work at home , Home as an office , Many smart household appliances have also been derived , Such as ： Electronic paper calendar 、 Intelligent alarm clock integrated with temperature control center ...... multifarious , Full of beautiful things in eyes .

What is the relationship between edge computing and smart home ？

What is edge computing

Edge computing refers to processing at network edge nodes 、 Analyze the data . here , We give the definition of edge node , Edge node refers to any node with computing resources and network resources between the data generation source and the cloud center . such as , Mobile phone is the edge node between people and cloud center , Gateway is the edge node between smart home and cloud center . In an ideal environment , Edge computing refers to the analysis near the data source 、 Processing data , There is no data flow , Thus reducing network traffic and response time .

Advantages of edge computing

In the field of face recognition , The response time is determined by 900ms Reduced to 169ms After unloading some computing tasks from the cloud to the edge , The energy consumption of the whole system is reduced 30%-40%. Data is being consolidated 、 Migration and other aspects can reduce 20 Times of time .

Edge computing can make smart home have better data transmission performance and data privacy protection

The development of the Internet of things makes the electronic devices in ordinary people's homes lively , Just connecting these electronic devices to the network is not enough , We need to make better use of the data generated by these electronic components , And use these data to better serve the current family . Considering the network bandwidth and data privacy protection , We need these data. It's best to circulate only locally , And directly handle it locally . We need to act as an edge gateway , Let it consume the data generated in the family . At the same time, there are many sources of data （ It can be from a computer 、 mobile phone 、 Sensors and any other intelligent devices ）, We need to customize a special OS, So that it can knead these abstract data together and unify them organically .

What is the relationship between applet container technology and smart home ？

Applet container technology is not new , We are using wechat App, The applet application called from inside , The underlying technology is applet container technology . Why is the voice of applet container technology getting higher and higher in recent years ？

The technical advantages are summarized as follows ：

• Cross platform capability , A set of codes can be  iOS  And  Android  Running applets on both platforms ;

• Far more than  H5  Experience （ Support local cache ,Webview, There are rich components and support libraries ）;

• Can get more system permissions , Complete richer product design ;

• You can avoid  DOM  Let the cat out of the （ Do not use commonly used  window  Object and the  document  object ）;

• Effective reduction of package size , Save traffic and storage

• Service is no longer limited by distribution , Support hot update

The reason why we combine applet container technology with IOT devices , For two reasons ：

• Applets need to be satisfied more often
  “ Go as soon as you use it ”,“ Lightweight deployment ”
  Principles of use , Compared with the existing customized development for different IOT terminal devices , Be able to occupy less content , Provide users with an excellent combination of software and hardware ;
  
  

• Applets can be used as
  Developer content design “ exit ”
  , Small program developers only need to develop small programs once for different media device types , You can realize small program resources that can run in different IOT devices ;

Based on the above two points , Applet container technology （ Such as ：

FinClip

） The applet running on is a bit like  Flutter  Of  slogan  equally “ Create excitement for all screens ”, Or like  Electron  Of  Slogan  equally “ Use  JavaScript,HTML  and  CSS  Build cross platform desktop applications ”, In essence, small programs are doing similar things .

I can't find many third-party applet container technologies in the market , Take... Here

FinClip

For example

. it

It is a front-end container technology that supports the ability of running small programs at multiple terminals , Simply integrate  「 FinClip SDK」 , Can be in   mobile phone 、Windows、Mac、Linux、

Tongxin 、 kirin

Wait for the platform to run your applet , It means , Mobile 、PC  End 、IOT When the intelligent terminal can run small programs . meanwhile , It also provides a perfect background management system , Unified management of small programs on and off the shelf 、 Monitor applet usage details .

You can assume such a scenario , In the past, some people need us to go in front of smart home devices , Operations performed on the intelligent control panel of the device , Now it can be based on mobile devices （ Such as App） Or smart display （ Like TV 、 Computer, etc. ） To operate . Human beings are no longer limited by physical space , Truly realize smart home control anytime, anywhere （ Anywhere in the house , On the way to the office , On the way to work , Dig out entertainment ......）

Of course , Opportunities and challenges coexist in any era . There are not many practical cases and scenarios of edge computing and applet container technology . If everyone recognizes the development in this direction , You might as well experience and try more , I believe that more and more people are joining the team of trying new technologies , In turn, it will double promote the development of industry technology .

Intelligent devices lead mankind to the field of intelligent space , We'll see .
