In the current era of emphasizing intelligence and the Internet, the improvement of users' living standards and the demand for intelligence are urgently accelerated again. At a time when all hardware wants to compete for the intelligent central control of the whole house, which product is the best entrance? How can I upgrade my family intelligently without increasing the budget?
Switch socket is a subtle existence for the whole family, but it controls the "lifeblood" of the whole family ". In the field of home furnishing, Switch is the most common and essential part. The traditional switch is embedded in the wall and controls household appliances through machinery. Smart home, smart switch breaks the single function of traditional switch, compared with its features, safe use, and beautiful style and decorative effect, with remote control, touch control, intelligent control panels with centralized control and other functions can meet the convenient control in various scenarios, conform to the development trend of smart home products, and are facing the pursuit of the market.

What is smart switch
Intelligent switch refers to the unit that uses the combination and programming of control panel and electronic components to realize intelligent switch control of circuit. Touch Intelligent switch is a new type of household equipment that is safer and more practical by electronic processing on the basis of common switches. The intelligent switch does not need to be rewired. It uses single FireWire technology to avoid rewiring, which saves more and is more beautiful. In addition, it can be effectively controlled by partition walls and partition rooms. Keep away from strong electric operation, the elderly and children are more assured to use, and can also operate when wet hands. The use of intelligent switch does not generate arc, and it is safer to use. The wireless remote control function breaks the limitation of space and can turn on household appliances for users at any time.
Relatively speaking, although the price of touch smart switch is slightly more expensive than that of ordinary switch, the cost performance is higher than that of ordinary switch. Touch Smart Switch will bring different experience to users through its design and concept.
Difficulty: overall management, compatibility is the core
The core of intelligent switch lies in the management of electrical equipment, and the extension of intelligent switch is to integrate the management work and realize the overall management of household electrical equipment through the integration of panel functions, become the core of management at the entrance. With the rapid development of the smart home industry, more and more home devices have begun to integrate intelligent modules with intelligent control terminals to remotely control all electrical appliances through smart switch socket, such as televisions, air conditioners, lighting, curtains, floor heating, fresh air, etc. enable consumers to develop the habit that switch panel can control everything. While improving the importance of switch panel itself, it can also better obtain the indispensable products and higher product premium. The convenience of internet communication makes control simpler and clearer. This also points out the direction for the future development of smart switch merchants. Only in terms of current market performance, manufacturers have indeed accepted and seized such opportunities.
In the field of smart home, domestic manufacturers lack specific standards, so there is no unified communication protocol between devices and switches, which has also become the biggest obstacle to device connection and remote control, it has also become one of the most troubled problems for many enterprises. Therefore, most enterprises are also actively committed to the compatibility development of on-off Controller, hoping to cover terminal equipment as widely as possible.
Response: iterative upgrade, conform to various needs, master user habits
It is an indisputable fact that the update speed of smart home devices is changing with each passing day. In such an environment, how to meet the market demand at all times without being eliminated, the iterative upgrade of smart switch panel is particularly important. Now many switches can realize voice interaction, visual interaction, and become a home information display and control hub. You can say to your switch panel, "help me turn on the TV", "turn the air conditioner to 26 degrees", "I'm going to sleep"...... At the same time, the small screen on the switch can record air quality and important breaking news, and can also display reminders, surveillance videos, energy consumption management, etc., the application of big data cloud and the addition of AI functions, not only does it record users' usage habits and transmit them to the cloud, but the cloud is responsible for integrating and organizing data, providing an optimized solution and pushing it back to the device, the user selects whether to update. By continuously iterating and optimizing the problems that occur during the use of the device, in fact, it helps the intelligent switch to strengthen the tightness of terminal device management, of course, the ultimate goal is to help users realize the construction of intelligent and comfortable living environment in control and management.
As an entry-level product, in addition to its own development, intelligent switch also needs to face existing market competition, such as the hot intelligent speaker with AI voice interaction in recent years, smart wear and so on, in fact, a single switch control function is easy to be gradually marginalized in front of more multifunctional intelligent devices, so for intelligent switches, in addition to solving the compatibility problem of interface protocols, how to strengthen AI and how to accelerate iterative upgrading will become issues that need to be carefully considered by the entire industry, especially in the current market environment, the weakness of interaction capability, it is very likely that the intelligent switch will return to the traditional hardware prototype and become a functional physical hardware device instead of leading the core of intelligent terminal management.
Analysis: competitive situation
Judging from the trend of market development, intelligent switches can be popularized like the LED market, but at present, compared with LED, it is still in a relatively later state, that is to say, the intelligent switch is still in the stage of personalized consumption of products, and it will take some time before universal consumption. Various publicity influences on the market, combined with the attribute characteristics of multi-system and rich function extension of smart home, make users have unclear understanding of smart home. At this stage, the market format is gradually formed. There are differences in product positioning between the pre-assembly integrated market and the post-assembly consumer market. Users' cognition of brand, function and demand is in the process of formation.
For users who need different scenarios, the choice of operation mode naturally varies greatly. Switch panel, as a conventional direct control method, is in the state of high frequency operation during daily use compared with other emerging control technologies. In particular, switch panel products are indispensable for the continuation of traditional user habits, and have great development potential in this round of smart home development wave. As a product of the new era, smart switch panel still has many uncertainties, such as the market has not been opened, technology still has barriers, products and brands are complicated, and standards are difficult to unify, etc, any manufacturer can be said to be crossing the river by touching the stones when laying out this market, waiting for the maturity of a time and taking the first step carefully. Of course, the prospect of intelligent switch is expected. The growth of intelligent switch requires more and more enterprises to participate. For enterprises, for the future growth and development of the industry, all have more positive significance.
