With the intelligent "magic mirror" of air quality,
A smart mouse that "understands speech"
……
In the era of intelligence,
5G, artificial intelligence and other new generation of technology,
It is promoting the wind outlet of intelligent terminal stations.
Under the outlet, grasping the new opportunities brought about by technological change, Hefei deeply implemented the "screen-core-end" linkage to promote the accelerated development of the intelligent terminal industry represented by smart homes and automobiles. The intelligent terminal industry is becoming a new business card made by Hefei's "intelligence".

As the country's largest "China home appliance industry base", in recent years, Hefei has taken the smart home appliance industry chain as one of the key industrial chains to promote, and has made every effort to build an important smart home appliance manufacturing highland in the country through chain replenishment, extended chain and strong chain.
"M fresh second-generation refrigerator, through the micro-freezing technology, can achieve 33 days of long-term freshness of fresh meat." Hu Mingyong, chief technical expert of the industrial Internet of Changhong Meiling Co., Ltd., said that the company's second-generation refrigerator found the golden temperature of fresh meat preservation - minus 3.5 degrees Celsius, which can reduce the loss of nutrients from fresh meat.

Continuing to move towards the high-end market, Changhong Meiling is not alone. Aiming at the opportunity of upgrading the consumption structure of home appliances, "Made in Hefei" home appliances promote consumption upgrading through the development of high-end smart home appliances and smart homes, and 26 enterprises such as Whirlpool, TCL, and Midea have launched smart home appliance products or smart home systems. According to the data, as of 2021, the city has a total of 228 products and systems that have passed the national standard certification of smart home appliances (residence), ranking first in the country.
At the same time, Hefei continues to promote the application and practice of key technologies, industrial forms and business models in the smart home industry. Many enterprises have launched smart home systems to provide "smart home solutions" to promote the transformation of a single category to intelligence.

"According to the indoor temperature and humidity, light changes, automatically adjust the air conditioning parameters, open and close the curtains; if there is an abnormal intrusion, the mobile phone automatically alarm ... What was once a sci-fi scene is becoming a reality, and the era of whole house intelligence has begun. A few days ago, in the exhibition hall of Clover Home Furnishing Co., Ltd., Mei Jie, director of the company's human resources department, demonstrated a smart home product on the spot. In the company's production workshop, in addition to the roar of the machine, basically can not see the workers, the workshop intelligent equipment relying on the independent research and development of the "Laifuyun intelligent terminal management platform", basically can independently complete from the grasp plate, cutting board, edge banding, to transportation, mechanical warehousing, packaging of the whole process of operation. "The machine has become 'smart', and our per capita labor efficiency, production capacity and efficiency have increased by 30%, 40% and 50% respectively." Major said.
With intelligent manufacturing as the starting point, the home appliance industry is releasing new momentum for transformation and upgrading. According to the data, at present, the city has built 27 provincial-level intelligent factories and digital workshops; 68 municipal-level intelligent factories and digital workshops. After the implementation of intelligent transformation, the core indicators of enterprise operation performed excellently, the average output value increased by 23.3%, the production efficiency increased by 32.7%, the product research and development cycle was shortened by 24.9%, and the energy consumption per unit of product was reduced by 27.7%.

The complete industrial chain is driving the energy level of the home appliance industry to jump. At present, Hefei has formed a complete industrial chain integrating home appliance research and development, production, sales, logistics and related supporting services. The development model of "leading enterprises - large projects - industrial chain - industrial clusters" is becoming more and more mature, and the average local matching rate of white goods is about 70%, and the core matching rate is about 75%.
"At present, Hefei's home appliance industry and zhanxin industry are accelerating the integration and mutual promotion, focusing on creating a 'smart home appliances - smart home - smart home' ecology, and cultivating a first-class industrial environment where the industrial chain, innovation chain, policy chain and talent chain are connected." Xu Dongliang, a fourth-level director of the Electronic Information Department of the Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology, said.
