Smart Cups Improve the Quality of Life for People

Smart cups-meaning cups that have intelligence-improve our health by reminding us to drink water on time. Smart cups have innumerable benefits, such as adjusting water temperature, boiling water in the car, reminding when you should drink water, telling whether you drink tea or coffee and so on.

Adopters of smart cups technology may enjoy the benefits of remotely controlling motorizing linkages, lighting, timing, and various other functions throughout the cup. When using intelligent systems, this can mean the remote control of all appliances, resulting in automatic boiling, water temperature adjustments, and much more, all controlled from a distance. These systems can recognize and adapt to our needs. And to harness the power of this technology from afar, look no further than your smart phone or tablet for remote control.

How amazing the smart cup is! Do you like it?

The Comparison between Smart Home and Traditional Home

Smart homes - meaning homes that have intelligence - facilitate our lives by completing many tasks that would otherwise have to be completed by us. Smart homes have innumerable benefits; benefits limited only by the imagination. However, we still live in a world of traditional homes. Although traditional homes still have the advantage of simplicity, the gains provided by smart homes fair outweigh any advantages of traditional homes.

Adopters of smart home technology may enjoy the benefits of remotely controlling motorizing linkages, lighting, timing, and various other functions throughout the home. When using our family of intelligent systems, this can mean the remote control of all home appliances, resulting in automatic cooking, air conditioner settings changes, water temperature adjustments, and much more, all controlled from a distance. These systems can recognize and adapt to our needs, even closing our curtains at the day's end. And to harness the power of this technology from afar, look no further than your smart phone or tablet for remote control.

We are well aware of the dominance of traditional homes in the modern market; the vast majority of families still reside in traditional dwellings. It is true that traditional homes have held key advantages over smart homes for some time; these primarily exist in the forms of simplicity and cost. Employing smart home technology in its infantile stages results in reduced reliability of the components of the home, degrading the value of the adoption of smart homes and providing a space for traditional homes to exist in a modern word.

The existence of fly-by-night internet companies selling low-quality smart home components has also increased the unpredictability of smart home technology, contributing the the perception that smart homes are not worth adopting. It is not wonder that, in spite of the existence of advanced technology, traditional homes remain ubiquitous.

However, the development of smart homes did not stop as a result of a few roadblocks, and the days of the dominance of traditional homes are numbered. Smart home technology that competes with the reliability and low cost of traditional homes must constantly increase the capacity of intelligence and continue to shrink expense, enabling smart homes that are more conducive to the desires of the market. With high-speed networking, cloud computing, and "big data" sweeping the globe, the future lies within the smart homes that focus on intelligent environment awareness, detection and feedback. We offer personalized service to make smart homes better serve the masses.

How Smart Cups work

The cup is an appliance with feeling. Lovers will give a cup to each other and cherish it for a lifetime. But in the modern times, the cup is not only amorous, but also smart.

The smart cup has a lot of functions, such as cooling water, boiling water in the car, reminding when you should drink water, telling whether you drink is tea or coffee, and calculating calories of your body.

According to medical research, adults need to drink 1200 ml of water every day. Normally we don’t pay attention to this, and consequently, we don’t drink enough. Sometimes we even forget to drink water for a long time. If we drink water when we are very thirsty, our body is dehydrated. The Smart Cup can scientifically analyze how much water we drink within a set time. Smart cups can record your drinking habits and remind you to drink water on time.

Whether the water we drink is clear and up to standard or not is very important. Smart cups can detect the mineral content and other materials in the water. 　

How Robotic Vacuums Work

There are a lot of people who clean once a week even once a month, there are a lot of people who only clean when relatives or friends come to visit. The house is a bit more spotless with minimal human input with robotic vacuums.

Today's robotic vacuums are a far cry from the first models that you had to track down, stranded somewhere in your house, by their melancholy, "I'm out of power" beeping. The latest products clean your house, remember the layout to increase efficiency, dump their own dirt in a receptacle and find their way back to the charging station so they can rejuice.

The Advantages of Internet of Things

So now we have sensors monitoring and tracking all sorts of data; we have cloud-based apps translating that data into useful intelligence and transmitting it to machines on the ground, enabling mobile, real-time responses. And thus bridges become smart bridges, and cars smart cars. And soon, we have smart cities, and….

Okay. What are the advantages here? What are the savings? What industries can this be applied to?

Here’s what I mean when I say people never think big enough. This isn’t just about money savings. It’s not about bridges, and it’s not about cities. This is a huge and fundamental shift. When we start making things intelligent, it’s going to be a major engine for creating new products and new services.

Of all the technology trends that are taking place right now, perhaps the biggest one is the Internet of Things; it’s the one that’s going to give us the most disruption as well as the most opportunity over the next five years. In my next post in this two-part series, we’ll explore just how big this is going to be.

The Internet of Things doesn’t function without cloud

Let’s look at one example. In 2007, a bridge collapsed in Minnesota, killing many people, because of steel plates that were inadequate to handle the bridge’s load. When we rebuild bridges, we can use smart cement: cement equipped with sensors to monitor stresses, cracks, and warpages. This is cement that alerts us to fix problems before they cause a catastrophe. And these technologies aren’t limited to the bridge’s structure.

If there’s ice on the bridge, the same sensors in the concrete will detect it and communicate the information via the wireless internet to your car. Once your car knows there’s a hazard ahead, it will instruct the driver to slow down, and if the driver doesn’t, then the car will slow down for him. This is just one of the ways that sensor-to-machine and machine-to-machine communication can take place. Sensors on the bridge connect to machines in the car: we turn information into action.

You might start to see the implications here. What can you achieve when a smart car and a smart city grid start talking to each other? We’re going to have traffic flow optimization, because instead of just having stoplights on fixed timers, we’ll have smart stoplights that can respond to changes in traffic flow. Traffic and street conditions will be communicated to drivers, rerouting them around areas that are congested, snowed-in, or tied up in construction.

The Internet of Things is Far Bigger Than Anyone Realizes

When people talk about “the next big thing,” they’re never thinking big enough. It’s not a lack of imagination; it’s a lack of observation. I’ve maintained that the future is always within sight, and you don’t need to imagine what’s already there.

Case in point: The buzz surrounding the Internet of Things.
What’s the buzz? The Internet of Things revolves around increased machine-to-machine communication; it’s built on cloud computing and networks of data-gathering sensors; it’s mobile, virtual, and instantaneous connection; and they say it’s going to make everything in our lives from streetlights to seaports “smart.”
But here’s what I mean when I say people don’t think big enough. So much of the chatter has been focused on machine-to-machine communication (M2M): devices talking to like devices. But a machine is an instrument, it’s a tool, it’s something that’s physically doing something. When we talk about making machines “smart,” we’re not referring strictly to M2M. We’re talking about sensors.
A sensor is not a machine. It doesn’t?do?anything in the same sense that a machine does. It measures, it evaluates; in short, it gathers data. The Internet of Things really comes together with the connection of sensors and machines. That is to say, the real value that the Internet of Things creates is at the intersection of gathering data and leveraging it. All the information gathered by all the sensors in the world isn’t worth very much if there isn’t an infrastructure in place to analyze it in real time.

Cloud-based applications are the key to using leveraged data. The Internet of Things doesn’t function without cloud-based applications to interpret and transmit the data coming from all these sensors. The cloud is what enables the apps to go to work for you anytime, anywhere.
