Product life cycle to be considered in making intelligent hardware

         Most entrepreneurial teams are not like Xiaomi. If a product fails, they can make another one right away . For various considerations , When making products, we need to fully consider the product life cycle , Without considering competition , Make the product life cycle longer , It will maximize the interests of the team .

　　1、 Use scenarios

　　 The life cycle of traditional medical devices is 5 To 10 year , But if the intelligent part is added to these medical devices , The intelligent part will make the product life cycle lower than the traditional . It may reduce the life cycle of the product to 3 To 5 About years ago . According to different intelligent hardware usage scenarios , Its life cycle will also change .

　　2、 Ecological chain

　　 The hardware team should have a better understanding of the technical status of electronic components . At the same time, we should be clear about some electronic information , Maintain a good relationship with the eco chain company in the full hardware circle .

　　3、 Technology selection

　　 In companies in the ecological chain , Some component manufacturers design their products for a longer service life , And use weak chips to reduce costs . When upgrading later , The hardware team can replace the weak chips with high-frequency chips , Or replace the components with larger memory . This can also extend the life cycle of the original product to a certain extent . Hardware entrepreneurial teams can choose the components to be used according to their product life cycle .

　　4、 Registration certification

　　 Intelligent hardware products also need to pay attention to the registration and certification of related technologies . such as 3C authentication 、 Network Access License 、 Medical device license 、FCC、CE Certification, etc . When making products , The time period of relevant registration and certification needs to be considered first , In order to avoid product launch , The problem of certification affects the listing and marketing plan .

　　5、 Social identity

　　 During product planning , We should plan the corresponding user groups very early . If we want to build another user group in the future , Consider the simplest way to do it .

　　6、 Cost considerations

　　 When developing new products , For the sake of cost , If the cost of the new product is not much different from that of the old product , After the new product comes into the market , There will be no long life cycle reserved for old products . Product life cycle changes caused by the alternation of new and old models , It has a great relationship with product performance design planning .
