Usually, the words "intelligence" are usually associated with products such as computer phones. Nowadays, refrigerators are also connected to this word, which makes people feel that happiness has come too suddenly. Now, various manufacturers are sparing no effort to promote their own smart refrigerators. Various small features smallpox. To sum up, it is nothing more than these points: it can remind the ingredients whether they are expired, can connect to WIFI, can be controlled by the mobile APP, a little more advanced, there are some cloud service support behind, and regularly push some information about diet to the mobile APP. But are these what we call smart refrigerators in the true sense? What exactly is a smart refrigerator, and what characteristics should a smart refrigerator have?
Hardware-based requirements:
First, the realization of intelligence in any home appliance is based on one element-the sensor. At present, most refrigerators only have temperature sensors. How smart do you make it? Not to mention the requirement to automatically identify the type of food, freshness, and remaining shelf life. At present, the reminder of the shelf life of all smart refrigerators is to input the purchase date, food type, and quantity of things into the management APP in advance. These can only be regarded as adding more options to the ordinary refrigerator, and can not be regarded as a real smart refrigerator. In the future, smart refrigerators must integrate various sensors, such as smell, RFID identification, camera scanning, infrared sensing, pressure and line sensing, etc., which can automatically sense various activities of the outside world, and then automatically judge based on the powerful computing power configured later The quantity and freshness of the food.
Second, the degree of intelligence is closely related to computing power. At present, most of the single-chip computers in refrigerators still use 8-bit computers. Do you talk to me about intelligence? The 8-bit control unit can currently only select and control two levels of menus. Not to mention the 8-bit refrigerator control unit, there are still many people on the 64-bit iPhone who do not recognize it as a smartphone (pseudo-backstage).
Based on software and environment requirements:
To realize the intelligentization of refrigerators, it is impossible without a mature interconnected and interactive operating system. Smartphones only need a very complicated operating system to implement voice calls and web browsing functions, not to mention that the refrigerator needs to implement more functions. Without the control of the operating system, it will definitely not work. Of course, the operating system mentioned here is not similar to Windows or Android in the general sense, the main solution is to be able to automatically control various sensors in the refrigerator and achieve interconnection and interworking control under the Internet of Things.
Follow-up of the external environment is also essential, such as the aforementioned Internet of Things. Let every piece of food you buy can be connected to the Internet, and can be traced to the specific location of origin, specific time, and which operating workers are serving us. All these require external facilities to follow up.
The smart era requires highly developed technology and the improvement of industry standards. Just add two functions to the refrigerator and call it a smart refrigerator, which is a bit of a rogue ...
