Four departments jointly promote the development of the home industry. Ou Feiguang’s smart home business ushered in a golden development period.
Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Market Supervision jointly issued the Action Plan for Promoting the High-quality Development of Home Furnishing Industry. According to the plan, by 2025, the innovation capability of the home furnishing industry will be significantly enhanced. Cultivate innovative platforms such as manufacturing innovation centers and digital transformation promotion centers in household appliances, lighting appliances and other industries, and the integration level of key industries will reach 65%. Cultivate a number of 5G fully connected factories, intelligent manufacturing demonstration factories and excellent application scenarios. The development of new formats such as smart home has been accelerated. About 50 well-known brands and 10 home eco-brands have been cultivated in the home industry, a number of excellent products have been promoted, 500 smart home experience centers have been established, and 15 high-level characteristic industrial clusters have been cultivated to promote the quality consumption of home brands with high-quality supply.
According to industry insiders, in the future, driven by the policy dividend, with the help of 5G, big data, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things and other technologies, smart home products and systems will be continuously transformed and upgraded to meet the diverse needs of users, create an open and complete intelligent ecosystem, and bring a real home life experience of the Internet of Everything. The smart home industry is bound to usher in a golden age of development.
In recent years, China’s smart home shipments have grown rapidly. IDC predicts that in 2022, China’s smart home equipment market will exceed 260 million units, with a year-on-year increase of 17%, and it is expected to exceed 500 million units by 2026. According to the forecast of China Commercial Industry Research Institute, the smart home market in China will reach 651.56 billion yuan in 2022.
There are many participants in the smart home industry chain. The upstream includes underlying technology and resource suppliers such as chips, sensors, communication modules, cloud platforms and AI technologies. The midstream includes technical scheme design and product manufacturers. The downstream includes brand operators, online and offline stores, real estate hotels, decoration and other channel sales and service providers. Participants in the industrial chain include traditional smart home enterprises, Internet giants, traditional home appliance giants, mobile phone industry giants, new start-ups and so on. Among them, by virtue of 20 years’ deep technical accumulation in the field of optics and optoelectronics, Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt has made a deep layout in the field of smart homes, and has worked hard on fingerprint identification products of smart door locks for many years. At present, it has realized multi-chip and three-in-one solutions, and in 2022, it will realize five-in-one solutions, that is, door lock electronic solutions consisting of door lock master control (AICPU), fingerprint algorithm, voice, RFID, Touch-key, fingerprint sensing module and wireless connection.
In 2022, Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt released the first VGA ToF face recognition scheme. On the overall scheme construction, Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt customized the 28nm process-specific AI processor for VGA ToF face camera, equipped with its self-developed face recognition algorithm and living body detection algorithm, which can realize the fast face recognition experience while the ToF camera outputs high-quality images, and the power consumption can still be at a low level. The software and hardware of this scheme are independently researched and developed by the company, among which the VGA resolution TOF camera module independently developed by Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt is used in the hardware, and the number of projected point clouds is as high as 300,000, which ensures that this scheme in Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt achieves a key breakthrough in safety factor and reaches the safety level of UnionPay financial level.
In the aspect of fingerprint identification technology, Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt’s tactile feedback fingerprint and motor plus fingerprint technology can enhance the touch and feel of products. At the same time, Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt has also introduced the antibacterial fingerprint technology: at present, the epidemic situation is spreading seriously. Through this technology, the antibacterial effect can reach 99.8%, and the infection can be reduced. In addition, there are many technologies in Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt, such as fingerprint with lamp, ultrasonic fingerprint and customizable fingerprint sensing.
At the same time, Shenzhen O-film Tech Co.,lt accelerated the pace of layout in related new fields, and set up the IoT Eco-Division, whose business covers intelligent door locks, network cameras (IPC), robots and other related products. The company owns IP cameras, pan-tilt cameras, home cameras and other products in the IPC business field, and its existing and intended customers cover many mainstream brands and operators, etc. Focus on the core technology direction of robot sensing intelligence in the field of robot business, and provide customers with products such as sweeping robots, distribution robots, commercial service robots, robot intelligent sensing systems, etc.
With the acceleration of 5G commercialization, the continuous progress of artificial intelligence and Internet of Things technology, and the increasing demand of consumers for intelligent products, China’s smart home industry has entered a rapid development stage. In the future, Ou Feiguang will continue to deepen the smart home industry, and build a new growth pole of the company’s business with the core advantages of fast-growing industry market scale, good customer reserves and advanced R&D capabilities.
