The impact of 5G on the IIoT(industrial Internet of things)

For ordinary consumers, the concept of 5G may be a higher network speed. The improvement of the Internet experience brought by the large bandwidth of 5G is the most intuitive. Mobile phones can watch higher-definition videos in real time. The lower latency and higher reliability bring a much smaller improvement to the experience of C-end users. The delay in opening a web page has been reduced from 50ms to 10ms, and consumers can barely perceive the difference.

In industry, the situation is completely different. The concept of the Industrial Internet has been proposed many years ago, but until the mobile Internet is so popular, the proportion of equipment networking in the industrial field is still small, and the applications related to networking equipment are still very shallow. The main reason is that the Internet has not yet reached the requirements in terms of latency and reliability.
The application of the Industrial Internet of Things has only been able to stay at the surface of data collection and display and some management functions extended from it, and it is difficult to involve core areas such as the control of industrial systems, where the stability and delay of the communication system cannot reach requirements are the main constraint.
The investment in equipment in the industrial field is huge. Whether it is a machine tool, a production line, or a mechanical device, downtime caused by failures in the production process often affects the entire production line and even the entire product delivery cycle.

To ensure stability, the control system in the industrial field is mainly local, and a large number of hardware and software systems are deployed. On the one hand, the whole control system is very complicated and the investment is huge. On the other hand, it also limits the flexibility and scalability of the system. In today's fast-changing consumer demand, the update of the production system cannot keep up with the changes in consumer demand, and will also lead to missed many new opportunities.
The current mobile communication system is not deeply involved in the application of the Industrial Internet of Things. Although 4G has been greatly improved in network speed, it can meet the needs of users to watch videos at any time, but the reliability and delay of the network still have A lot of room for improvement does not meet the requirements of industrial scenarios.
The application of 4G in industrial scenarios is more a way to upload data to the cloud in scenarios where real-time requirements are not high. For example, machine tools and equipment in the factory will collect data every 5-10 seconds, and these data summary will generally be collected into a unified terminal, which will be sent to the cloud platform through 4G.
In order to ensure the stability of the data transmission of machine tools, in the factory, the connection of each machine tool and the unified terminal is generally wired. This connection method is still relatively heavy, and a large number of cables will also cause the internal structure of the factory to be more complicated. When the performance of the mobile network system is improved to replace the wired cable, the complexity of the internal structure of the factory will also be reduced, making it easier to manage.
5G's technical standards for industrial systems can meet these requirements. The extremely low latency guarantees the real-time monitoring and control requirements in the industrial field. The highly reliable network quality ensures the stability Requirements; large bandwidth can realize high-definition 3D video and even AR transmission, which greatly improves the operation accuracy in the field of remote control.
Because the number of 5G connections, the value provided, and the ability to pay are not comparable to the mobile Internet. So many people think that the biggest opportunity for 5G lies in the industrial Internet.
Although 5G technology is currently immature and there is still a long way to go for large-scale deployment and application, we believe that the direction of the 5G-enabled industrial sector is clear, and the future can be expected.

How to select to phone case that is fit for you

We don’t pay the insurance for our phone, but we will add some extra protection for it ， a phone case is one of the protection for your phone .So what case should we select for our smartphone ? When it comes to buying the case for our phone, we have met some problems more or less, such as “It scratches very easy” "The buttons are way to stiff when using this cases" "The color is   beautiful and it’s easy to pop on but the material is NOT durable.” Actually, most of these problems are related to the material that the phone case is made from, every material has its own advantage and disadvantage,after we know the performance of the material, we can choose a better case that is fit for you. Silicone phone case: Silicone phone case is a typical application of silicone protective cover. It’s softness is   between 35-80A Shore hardness and a slightly slippery feel . It has been popular in the market for many years. Silicone rubber, commonly known as silica gel, is a h...

It can help to solve the problem you meet at the gift market

What the problem do you meet in the gift market? Do you still remember the gift you got at a promotion activity, or someone else gave you? Maybe you put it away because it wasn’t practical, and never use it, right? Finally, you don't remember where you put it. This is a very common situation that many people will encounter. This is also a problem that gift merchants have not considered. What will be the final result of the gift they sent out? Thinking from the company's point of view, you printed your company's LOGO on the gift you sent. You thought it would achieve the effect of advertising, actually, it didn't. You didn't know your customer or the person who received your gift how to handled the gift you gave. We need to consider : Is this gift we gave is helpful for our company? Are we giving them what they need? what we want to achieve by giving this gift and how to achieve? On the other hand, let’s think from personal perspective: Why do I need this gi...

TWS headset market will be the focus of the AI ​​era

In October last year, Apple launched the third-generation TWS (True Wireless Stereo) headset, AirPods Pro, on the official website for $ 249. This price is higher than the previous two generations, but it has not hit consumer enthusiasm in the slightest. Earlier, the two generations of TWS headphones released by Apple reversed the decline in sales after the release of ordinary electronic products, and became absolute benchmarks for the TWS headphones industry. The TWS headset is not just a sound transmission tool. Its more important role is an AI assistant based on voice interaction technology. As a smart wearable device, the TWS headset is designed to provide a better human-machine interaction experience. For consumers of TWS headsets, the instant automatic connection can be achieved after the initial setting, so a smooth user experience is more important than sound quality. This can also provide some explanation for "why AirPods can produce word-of-mouth effect...
