Recently, many friends asked me: "Is smart lighting now at the outbreak period, how do I choose?".

First of all, the outlet of intelligent lighting must have arrived, which is certain. So, how to choose? This is very learned.

Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and men are afraid of entering the wrong line. For our enterprises and distributors in the lighting industry, we are terminal equipment manufacturers and sellers. We don't need to do a lot of basic research and development, and mature platforms and systems can be used.

Therefore, let's talk about how to choose a platform.

Now it can be divided into two platforms, one is the big platform of Tmall Genie, Xiaomi, Huawei, etc., and the other is the ** Internet of Things, ** smart home, and the 2.4g private protocols we use more. Small platform and small system. Communication technology is advancing with each passing day, and every day, thousands of miles away, without sufficient investment, it is impossible to achieve results and to keep up with the rhythm.

Large platforms are in horse racing enclosures, and self-built ecosystems can be spared, can be subsidized, and strategic losses, like Didi taxi.

Small platforms cannot compete in the mass consumer market. They must be developed in some subdivided areas, specific functions in specific places, and tailor-made services. Such as Tmall Genie, although its function is still relatively low and the convenience of use is worse, but consumers accept that they think that you have no way. It uses a "Tmall AI Alliance" to combine all the products of smart home into a Tmall Elf ecosystem. Consumers only need to recognize the products that have the "Tmall Elf AI Alliance" posted and take it home, and you It can be combined into a smart home. If there are any problems, Tmall helps to solve them. What else do you have?

As a lighting company and a lighting retailer, I said earlier that it is impossible to do communication research and software development. We are doing terminal application equipment, selling smart lighting products, and implanting their systems. Tmall, Huawei or Others are not important. It is important to find a platform vendor with stable performance, simple use, high cost performance, continuous upgrade and iteration, cooperation with platform vendors that can keep up with the development of the industry, and even multiple platform vendors.

The words are for reference only, thank you!
