Wearable equipment products do not need to meet the industry standard introduction date:2015-05-22 14:20
At present, wearable devices have become the representatives of new fashion, and diverse application fields such as medical and health, sports and fitness, smart fabrics, entertainment and social networking, luxury goods, and mobile payment are increasingly integrated into wearable products. Although the development of wearable devices is good, but the products are uneven, it is necessary to introduce the corresponding industry standards to promote the healthy development of this blue ocean.
Wearable device market blueprint is showing
From smart bracelets, smart watches, smart patches, and health-aware clothing, Google, Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi, and Huawei have all launched their own products. With the growing enthusiasm of consumers for new ways of interacting and the yearning for new technology products, the market potential of wearable devices is huge. According to data from some market research organizations, the global shipments of wearable devices in 2013 were 9.7 million units, which reached 22 million units in 2014 and is expected to reach approximately 135 million units in 2018.
Yang Jialu, deputy general manager of technical support and R&D of the Electrical and Electronic Products Service Department of TUV Greater China, believes that for the smart wearable industry, 2007-2015 is an exploratory stage, and the software platform and database are not mature enough; 2016-2018 The year will be the start of the market, and with the gradual growth of big data and ecosystems, smart wearable products will be more convenient to use; and 2019-2021 is expected to become a period of rapid development, after which the market may stabilize.
Yang Chunhui, director of the China Saibao Laboratory Software Testing Center, proposed that smart wearable devices provide opportunities for the upgrading of traditional industries. In addition to ushering in the Internet, traditional enterprises are also embracing intelligence. In the era when objects are connected, wearable products will become the material basis and technological foundation.
In fact, there is no limit to the application of wearable devices. The initial application of wearable technology is in the fitness industry, but you can never imagine that the database calculator watch released by Casio in 1984 is the initial application of this technology. If you want to define a truly modern wearable technology product, count the FitBit produced in 2008. What made wearables an industry hot spot was the emergence of the NikeFuel bracelet in early 2012. For the next three years, investors have been looking for opportunities to invest in hardware and software in the wearable industry.
Product is uneven
Although the concept of smart devices is very hot, smart bracelets, smart watches and other products on the market are also designed to be cool enough, but not really good products. At present, there is no industry standard in the country. Products are uneven, and there is no universal standard in terms of security and privacy that users can use with confidence.
Yang Jialu pointed out that charging speed, industrial design, data acquisition and transmission, and sensor accuracy are all problems that are difficult to solve. Due to the lack of mandatory standards and market laws and regulations requiring the specification of wearable devices, many tens or even more than a dozen products claim to be smart wearable.
According to industry insiders, smart wearable devices cannot affect human health at first, and batteries must be safe and do not affect the use of other electronic devices. For example, the plastic materials used in some low-priced wristbands are relatively cheap, and whether or not harmful substances are controlled remains to be confirmed. In addition, there are no specific standards for whether the production process of the bracelet is environmentally friendly, whether it uses recycled materials, whether it causes electromagnetic interference to medical equipment, and so on. Availability, such as sensor accuracy, interconnection, and information security are all directions for the industry.
Cai Yuhang, Director of Innovation Center of Huawei Terminal Co., Ltd., said that while health is the most essential pursuit of wearable products, the entire industry is still not equipped with basic health testing functions. Even the most basic accurate measurement of exercise heart rate is basically done. Not to.
Since wearable devices are a new form, many aspects have not yet formed standards, leading to some risks in terms of security. According to Jin Fuwei, deputy secretary-general of China's Wearable Computing Industry Technology Innovation Strategic Alliance, the device may heat up if it adds a lot of features to a wearable device. For example, what happens when IWatch is sunburned, there is no way to propose safety design guidelines to manufacturers, and this may pose some safety risks to consumers.
China's wearable computing industry technology innovation strategic alliance secretary Yang Hao proposed that the greatest risk of wearable devices in the application is the standard issue. For example, the current form of wearable devices is still difficult to adapt to the current medical system standards, whether it is to do methodologies or test methods, there are certain problems. For example, many people say that their wearable devices can measure blood pressure, blood oxygenation, heart rate, or even blood sugar. Actually, most of these don't meet the requirements of the medical system.
Standardization promotes the healthy development of the industry
Standards can establish a baseline for the wearable industry and standardize the healthy development of the industry to prevent mixed products. At the same time, it can promote interconnection and facilitate product development. For the user, the product's technical indicators, safety indicators, etc. are a guiding guide. In addition, industry supervision also requires a benchmark. Yang Chunhui said that once the standard is formed, product development, production, etc. can be in line with the standard, and at the same time it is beneficial to distinguish product quality. It is necessary to ensure that there is a benchmark, but also to distinguish the pros and cons of the product.
In order to promote the use of wearable devices to achieve safety, health, and efficiency, Yang Jiaqi proposed that the wearable certification standards should involve chemical detection, battery life, battery and overall safety, suitability, software and information security assessment, and sensor accuracy. Assessment and evaluation of wireless technology certification testing and other seven major assessments.
First of all, the formation of industrial alliances, cooperation between production, education and research is the way to achieve effective standards. Between enterprises and enterprises, enterprises have reached cooperation with scientific research institutes and universities to jointly formulate some standards, including the number of models required for assessment of product accuracy, and how many people participate. Yang Jiayu said.
Second, we focus on the integration of wearable devices with the Internet of Things and big data. The transmission process after the data acquisition of the wearable device requires wireless technology, and the wireless transmission needs to comply with relevant regulations, such as the power can not be too large. Whether from the perspective of medical treatment or industrial development, wearable devices and the Internet of Things and Big Data have close cooperation in the future.
People-oriented development of standards to maintain painful thinking. Tripartite certification organizations can make pain point analysis through the user's product trials, and one of the methods is to pay attention to the star rating of the electronic consumer market on the e-commerce website. For example, many people evaluate a wearable product on the Amazon website. Through analysis, it can be concluded that frequent hang-ups are not easy to break and the strap is not easily worn and other product problems. Yang Jialu pointed out that the four major pain points for setting standards need to be software testing, battery testing, suitability testing, and pain points for users.
