Abstract: By the end of 2017, the number of IoT connections worldwide has reached 7.5 billion, and it is expected to reach 25 billion by 2025. In fact, compared with the simple attention to the number, it is more important to pay attention to its structure. As can be seen from the figure, after 2017, the industrial Internet of Things will develop at a faster rate than the consumer Internet of Things. The number of terminals in the Industrial Internet of Things will increase by 4.7 times, while the number of terminals in the consumer Internet of Things will only increase by 2.5 times. In the 2018 Yunqi Conference. Wuhan Summit's proprietary cloud special session, Zhao Xiaofei, CEO of the Internet of Things Think Tank, brought a wonderful technology sharing entitled “Internet of Things Industry Development and Ecological Analysis†to the audience. In this sharing, he focused on the development of the order of magnitude of equipment, the industrial Internet of Things, the conditions for the development of the Internet of Things industry, and the necessity of building an industrial ecology, and looked forward to the future. The following is a compilation of exciting video content. Overview of the development of equipment In the development of the Internet of Things industry, the order of magnitude of equipment is also a sign of the technological era. The order of magnitude of the equipment has undergone the following developments: In the 1960s, the first integrated circuit computer appeared, covering an area of ​​more than 100 square meters and weighing more than ten tons. Even though this computer is bulky, costly, and difficult to operate, it still belongs to the latest technology products of that era. In the mainframe era, such products can only be used in special areas such as aerospace, medical, banking, etc. Therefore, the number of devices will naturally have certain limitations and will not exceed 100,000 units. By the 1970s, due to the emergence of a streamlined instruction set, the cost of equipment required to be reduced and the volume was reduced. However, for most industries, although the cost of equipment is reduced, the price is still relatively expensive, and many industries cannot afford it. Therefore, in the era of minicomputers, although the popularity of equipment has relatively expanded, the order of magnitude of machines is only within one million. By the 1980s, PCs began to appear and further entered more industries. However, although the operation of the PC has been simplified, it is still somewhat complicated, and it still needs some more professional people to operate. Therefore, in the PC era, the number of devices is not more than 100 million. In the 1990s, with the development of the Internet, PCs that can access the Internet began to increase, the difficulty of use was greatly reduced, and the size and cost were greatly reduced. Many families and individuals have begun to use the world. The world has entered the era of desktop Internet, and the PCs that have penetrated thousands of households have changed people's lives. The order of magnitude at this time is probably about one billion. After 2000, global 3G networks began to be commercialized, and more and more electronic products began to appear, such as tablets and smartphones. The mobile Internet era has arrived. After 2010, with the emergence of the Internet of Things, various electronic products have poured into the market. We hope that in the future, all physical objects will be intelligent, and these intelligent products will become the terminals of the Internet of Things. In the current Internet of Things era, the number of devices has reached 100 billion units, which is a sign of the technological era. Along the way, we can see that with the ever-changing order of equipment, the Internet of Things industry is constantly developing rapidly. Industrial Internet of Things According to the ever-changing order of magnitude of equipment, there are many research institutions to predict the market size of the Internet of Things. In the past two years, many research institutes have made some adjustments to the data based on the statistical results of the device's order of magnitude. The above figure quotes a relatively reliable data from the GSMA. By the end of 2017, the number of global IoT connections reached 7.5 billion, and it is expected to reach 25 billion by 2025. In fact, compared with the simple attention to the number, it is more important to pay attention to its structure. As can be seen from the figure, after 2017, the industrial Internet of Things will develop at a faster rate than the consumer Internet of Things. The number of terminals in the Industrial Internet of Things will increase by 4.7 times, while the number of terminals in the consumer Internet of Things will only increase by 2.5 times. Consumer Internet of Things is an experience economy, and industrial Internet of Things is a value economy. In the future, the industrial Internet of Things will bring value to the reduction of cost and efficiency. That is to say, each enterprise will pay more attention to the industrial Internet of Things. Therefore, it can be predicted that the Industrial Internet of Things will be the main growth force of the Internet of Things market in the next few years. Industrial ecosystem of the Internet of Things The above picture shows the development map of the entire IoT industry. It can be seen that the entire industrial ecosystem of the Internet of Things has been formed. The industrial ecosystem basically uses the four structures of the Internet of Things, end, management, cloud, and use. The figure shows the more representative companies in the four modules, and the four modules and the representative companies inside are subdivided. Every module has an enterprise layout, basically no loopholes. Conditions for the development of the Internet of Things industry The formation of a panoramic industrial ecology, the development of the Internet of Things industry meets a lot of conditions. There are four types listed in the figure above: Cost: The most basic cost of perception, calculation, and transmission has been reduced, and the decline is very large. Connection: The development of 5G technology, we can see that the connection is also becoming more mature. Calculation: In the past two years, many artificial intelligence companies have enhanced their edge-side terminal capabilities. Open source: There are many small companies, and small teams have the opportunity to compete in the market. Software-defined networking and radio methods provide excellent conditions for the development of the Internet of Things. Industry dividend With the preparation of conditions, the future Internet of Things will definitely bring dividends to the industry. On the left side of the picture above is a way for the Internet of Things to bring dividends to the communications industry and the Internet industry. For example, in the past decade or two, the communications industry and the Internet industry have first brought dividends to the population, especially in the communications industry, such as China Mobile. When the demographic dividend reaches a certain stage, such as the mobile phone dividend is close to saturation, it will bring a dividend of traffic. With traffic, a lot of data is generated. On the one hand, data brings value in all aspects of analysis, on the other hand, it will increase the information dividend. On the right side of the picture above, the Internet of Things started with a lot of terminals to bring dividends. It can be seen that the terminal dividend, data dividend, and information dividend are distributed in a ladder. However, different industry chain roles may not be able to get a real terminal dividend, that is, there is a situation in which the operator does not increase revenue. These operators mainly rely on the data generated by the Internet of Things to bring value, such as platform usage fees, calls to platform APIs, storage, and so on. For operators, the terminal dividend is said to be in line with the big connection strategy, but it is only an entry point. It mainly seeks the dividends brought by data and information. How do users view the Internet of Things The above picture shows a survey of thousands of IoT users by Ovum, a research institution in the UK. From the feedback of users, it can be seen that the upstream enterprises of the Internet of Things, that is, the enterprises providing IoT technology and services and the downstream enterprises There is a fault. Building an industrial ecology The picture above shows the current status of many IoT industries. The left part and the right part are separate, with a gap in the middle. In the future, it is necessary to construct an industrial ecology to connect the two sides in series and build a bridge between two separate parts. The middle part is an industrial ecology that truly makes the Internet of Things industry. Magnetoelectric Proximity Switch The magnetic proximity switch is a kind of proximity switch. The magnetic proximity switch is one of many types in the sensor family. It is made by the use of electromagnetic working principle and advanced technology. It is a position sensor. It can transform the non-electricity or electromagnetic quantity into the desired electric signal through the change of the positional relationship between the sensor and the object, so as to achieve the purpose of control or measurement.
