In March, Huawei released the industry's first IoT lighting solution with multi-layer intelligent control functions on GIS, which pushed the wave of lighting Internet of Things to the top. It can be said that the rise of the Internet of Things will become a new round of market explosion in the lighting industry.
Lighting Internet of Things is the trend of the times
Thanks to the development of the Internet of Things, electrical equipment, security facilities, etc. can be connected through intelligent platforms, and urban life is becoming more intelligent. At the same time, the Internet of Things has opened a new era for smart lighting and has become the main driving force for its future development.
For the city, the most essential and ubiquitous is lighting. According to The Climate Group, the number of street lamps in the world is about 304 million, and will reach 352 million in 2025. These ubiquitous street lights, while bringing convenience to urban life, also generate huge energy consumption and high management costs, making urban managers exhausted.
How to create a lighting environment that is both economical and intelligent is especially critical. The Internet of Things can be said to be a good solution to these problems. The Internet of Things provides a large number of sensing technologies, wireless communication technologies, and radio frequency identification technologies. Through sensors and microprocessor control systems, intelligent lighting systems can “perceive†the environment and provide solutions based on changes in external conditions to provide users with solutions. The most suitable and most natural service.
Take Huawei's lighting Internet of Things solution as an example. With the Internet of Things, the status of the street lights, installation information, and quantity can be seen at a glance. Only one staff member can easily manage thousands of street lights in multiple blocks. In addition, the system can also manage the life cycle of the street lamp. As long as the fault occurs, the system will automatically alarm and notify the maintenance personnel to timely repair, which not only saves labor costs, but also improves management efficiency.
In addition to the fact that the Internet of Things can solve the development of lighting in a timely manner, its strong market is also a key factor behind lighting. Prior to this, Gooee Vice President John Couch said that by 2019, intelligent lighting systems using IoT technology will bring about $550 billion in revenue to software and services, while the revenue from hardware sales is only $50 billion. . Such a big cake, only the link IoT can be included in the disk. Can the intelligent lighting industry fall behind?
Looking at the future from the giant action
The prospect of lighting the Internet of Things is huge, and the profit of the smart lighting industry is much higher than that of consumer electronics. Naturally, it attracted a large wave of savvy enterprise giants to come to the staking. It is the trend that the so-called giants compete for and preemptively layout. From the frequent movements of the major giants, we may be able to see the trend of lighting Internet of Things.
Prior to this, Cisco and Cree teamed up to attack the IoT market lighting, and then cooperated with Philips to deploy the IoT office lighting market. In January, at the CES 2016 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Osram released the first Smart LED lights controlled by Thread network protocol; Recently, connected lighting company Gooee cooperated with EnOcean to integrate Bluetooth low-power self-powered switch module into Bluetooth intelligent network stack to jointly build Bluetooth intelligent lighting control system.
The competition is undoubtedly indicating that smart lighting will be the next battleground for the Internet of Things. But besides that, we can also sum up a trend: the next step, the market will gradually subdivide. Whether it is home lighting, office lighting, or Bluetooth lighting, no one can be a big one. It can be said that only by identifying their own positioning and advantages, and launching services that meet the needs of consumers is the key to generating revenue.
Of course, as an ideal cut to expand the market, there is no reason not to be optimistic about the integration of smart lighting and IoT technology. However, companies must be cautious and cope with challenges while exploring the market.
Insiders pointed out that the current Internet of Things industry is relatively low in concentration, the technology boundary is relatively vague, and the development context is not so easy to grasp. Some systems are more vulnerable to hacker attacks. Therefore, network security is one of the challenges faced by intelligent lighting companies. In addition, when developing IoT technology, operators must pay attention to some potential threats, such as insufficient authentication, lack of transmission encryption protection, and insecure web pages, cloud and mobile application interfaces.
Conclusion: For companies that have successfully circulated in the field of lighting Internet of Things, the next step should be to intensively work. It can be said that the Internet of Things is a free game with no wins and losses, and any change can happen. Because of this, in the process of pursuing interests, the industry must make better use of resources to complement each other's advantages. Otherwise, the lighting Internet of Things will not become a treasure trove of lucky treasures, but will cause enterprises to fall into a trap.
