Don t underestimate the power strip this little device is well worth doing

49 millet power strip will be for quite some time to despise this company as its “no” evidence. Indeed, the millet Strip first product not even “smart”-there is no networking function, only three USB interfaces to prove himself and “intelligent hardware” dip slightly.

But millet have not relaxed enough to do not much help to expand its territory of products. If exactly the same power strip we the electrotechnical enterprises was launched without cares, but a company that aspired to be leader in smart home run to sell this gadget, it is worth people thinking about the intentions behind it.

Power strip is first of all to clear such obscure products are common and even indispensable in our lives. Even the newly renovated, large deployments wall receptacle housing are also bound with several power strips provide a bunch of equipment with flexible power supply location. Electrical product as a necessity, patch panels, natural home environment plays an important role.

Smart hardware company, had plenty of practical and extensive coverage of a product is not enough. If power strips are not intelligent hardware and many have good potential for interaction, it only after all electrical products, will not be affected by IT companies too much attention. Do you have any non-electrical brands launched the Strip in the past? Not many examples.

But as the smart home gradually from concept to reality, the traditional household appliances, electrical devices are beginning to the development of intelligent and networked. Power strips as quite heavily used equipment, in the home network of the future will also be one of the most important roles.

Today, the wireless network is already standard of modern family. Wi-Fi network coverage of lots of people problem: Big House, lots of room and corner is no signal. Using more than one router network can expand coverage, but to the average user, this is no easy task, not to mention lots of room and there is no suitable positioning of a wireless AP.

If the wireless AP can be integrated into a power strip and can be easily paired with a primary router, problem solved. For convenience, the distance many power strips will be placed very close to electronic devices, just as a device to provide a good signal transmission. If it also integrates network feature will be great, and saved a troubles of equipment.

New version of Bluetooth technology provides low power network with Bluetooth functionality, but the technology needs to be at least room and Bluetooth LAN connection routing hub. Power strips can be shouldered by just, smart light bulbs, smoke detectors, temperature and humidity sensor suitable for small devices that use Bluetooth transmits signals, Bluetooth no additional deployment routes.

When the Wireless charging technology maturity and popularity at close range, a beautiful shape and integrated wireless power module power strips can be placed on desktop or bedside power for a variety of devices. Under this scenario, ugly old one cannot, of course, and the home environment. Power Strip also need to consider the appearance and art, is also part of the overall interior design.

To perfectly fulfill these requirements, power strip cannot be an independent product. Just integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are not trivial: in order to fool the deployment, apparently the main router, with wireless extensions of equipment with the best networking appliances have a unified control center, using the same quick pairing Protocol. In other words in order to enjoy comfortable, which is best to choose a brand series. Jeremy Scott iPad Mini Case

So this kind of small significance: Although the item value is not very high, but as the smart home networking nodes, which directly affects the entire network collaboration. A complete intelligent hardware ecosystem could not such products are no power strips, and the levels of these items will, in turn, affects the entire ecosystem of user experience.

Indeed, millet power strips to test the waters and there is no networking, no intersection and millet’s ecosystem. But as the millet in the hardware layout improvement, millet power strip evolved into an important node in the future is inevitable. By then, those who scoff at millet’s voice will naturally calm, in turn, will regret the arrogance of many enterprises. Millet says most commonly used electrical redesign it seems exaggerated lurking behind the slogan its ambition. Power strip is a piece, we will see more in the future, “MI” brand appliances followed, trying to influence the life we know. Jeremy Scott iPad Mini Case
