Physical health monitoring/motion monitoring

It is generally believed that physical health monitoring/motion status monitoring is a wearable device. This understanding is actually biased. Because body health monitoring/motion status monitoring is wearable and non-wearable, such as smart health scales, it is non-wearable devices.

We believe that physical health monitoring, especially physical health monitoring of special populations, is used at high frequencies, and even necessary; and exercise condition monitoring is used at non-high frequency, at least, it is necessary to cultivate users' habits.

Physical health monitoring products include Connaught Cloud, Dim Network, PICOOC, Happy Mommy fetal language instrument and so on.

Tao Jianhui, the founder of Happy Mummy's fetal language instrument, once shared the "Thinking Pit for Smart Hardware Ventures." Tao Jianhui said that at the beginning, many people wondered why he wanted to be a pregnant woman. He joked that he was a graduate of the Department of Astrophysics at the University of Science and Technology of China and was considered to have a certain scientific mind and was particularly opposed to following suit. When I decided to do smart hardware at the end of 2012, I saw things like bracelets and watches that have risen. Is there anything else I can do? He once wanted to measure formaldehyde, air PM2_5 products, also wanted to measure the dry skin humidity of the product, and even measured the content of alcohol products. The results found that pregnant women this group should be the best money, and accept new things easier, more love, love to share. So he chose this goal to transform the traditional fetal heart rate monitor into a smart device.

Tao Jianhui believes that if smart hardware entrepreneurship is to establish its footing, we must do a good job at 4 points, that is, define products, look beautiful, block plagiarism, and do global markets.

Motion status monitoring is represented by smart bracelets and smart watches. Jawbone, a foreign smart bracelet star product, completed a new round of 250 million U.S. dollars in financing in February 2014. The company’s valuation has increased to US$3.3 billion. Jawbone recently spent more than $100 million to acquire BodyMedia. BodyMedia has more than 80 patents, mainly focused on multi-sensor technology. LH "After the purchase of BodyMedia, Jawbone will have more than 300 patents that have been granted and are in the process of being applied. Looking back at how many patented technologies smart bracelet products from domestic teams hold, how many unique places in product design are questionable. According to Shenzhen wearable industry sources, there are already smart wristband foundries claiming that they will release 100 sets of smart wristband male models in April and May 2014, which will bring the price to less than 100 yuan. Quantity will enter the brutal price war stage.

Chip companies such as Qualcomm, Broadcom, Texas Instruments, Freescale, ST, CSR, SILICONLABS, Rockchip, Junzheng, etc. all have smart watch solutions, as well as authorized distributors Shijian, Beigaozhi Technology, and dual-P. Feng Zuolili’s modular program partners 360iot are promoting smart watch solutions. At present, wearable devices still have more ARM architectures and fewer MIPS architectures and X86 architectures.

iWatch is indeed the biggest threat to the domestic smart watch innovation team. The news that iWatch, Apple's most watched new product this year, has never been cut off. Before this, the Chinese Taiwanese media gave a list of iWatch suppliers, and emphasized that this opportunity appeared on Q3 this year. iWatch's products are positioned at the high end. The fundamental purpose of Apple's iWatch manufacturing is to compete with traditional watch manufacturers. Naturally, it is enough for its appearance. The appearance of Apple's new iWatch will never be the same as the smart watches that have been released so far. Those "ugly" smart watches are totally incompatible with Apple's aesthetic.
