What is smart home? Users only need to use the key Internet of Things technology to build the daily affairs management mode of the entire family. All the homes in the home can be operated by one-key operation through mobile app, tablet or remote control, and easily control the lighting, TV and other furniture in the home. Of course, this is just a general statement. The basic knowledge that we should know before using this kind of IoT smart devices can enable us to fully grasp and apply these smart home products in our hands. This knowledge is: information collection -> analysis Control -> Action execution.
Information collection, analysis and control, and action execution are the most basic elements of the Internet of Things. Sensors form the basis of the smart home system. Through the Internet of Things, the sensors collect environmental information and send it to the control center through a designated communication protocol for processing. After analysis, the control commands are sent to each device for execution. Through such actions such as sensing collection, control analysis, and action execution, and with the assistance of mobile phones and other portable devices, traditional home appliances have intelligence because of the Internet, and our The quality of life is improved due to the reduction of complicated tasks, and the realm of "Enjoy Quality Life" is achieved.
The Internet of Things guides sensors, so how can sensors be further controlled by users? The entire home system based on smart door locks, smart light bulbs, smart gateways, smart cameras, air conditioning companions and various sensors.
Among them, the gateway plays a very important role. Mainly ZigBee, WiFi, Bluetooth communication. Among them, ZigBee modules are mainly used in home automation fields such as security, lighting, etc., with the characteristics of close range, low complexity, self-organization, low power consumption, and low data rate. WiFi modules are widely used in various IoT devices such as home appliances and monitoring. The power consumption of the Bluetooth module is between WiFi and ZigBee, and is mostly used in low-power wearable devices, smart speakers and smart door locks. For example, Aqara's products can be based on ZigBee, WiFi, and Bluetooth communications, through gateways or other smart home hubs to achieve interconnection between smart home devices.
By arranging various sensors, these sensors can monitor the state of the home in real time. For example, a temperature and humidity sensor can monitor the temperature and humidity in the home and changes in temperature and humidity in real time. Then the data is sent to the gateway. After the gateway receives the data, the air conditioner adjusts the indoor temperature and humidity status and sends the result to the user's mobile phone. The mobile phone displays the content to the user based on graphics and other methods, so that the user can monitor the home situation in real time. Relying on these devices, create diversified smart home scenarios, realize the transition from "smart single product" to "whole house intelligence", and realize that all items in the true sense are controlled by people.
In easy-to-understand terms, the smart home system connects all smart home devices in the home to the network, and users can achieve centralized control and monitoring of smart home devices through the control terminal. At the same time, smart home products and sensors with different functions are configured with different usage logics according to different scenarios, and corresponding linkages are realized based on this logic to provide users with a safer and more comfortable home environment.
The future of scientific and technological life will inevitably be embellished by the intelligent industry; the application of various cutting-edge technologies inadvertently creates a new experience for us and provides a more integrated and convenient life.
