Smart display or become the future development trend

In recent years, the products that are being promoted by various display manufacturers are still focusing on appearance, 3D, and wide viewing angle. These products are still unable to get rid of the shackles of computer accessories, and the application form is still relatively simple. However, display manufacturers are also actively seeking breakthroughs, and the emergence of smart displays is a very big breakthrough. This product is no longer just a display product. They have independent processors, operating systems, and storage units. In addition to fulfilling the functions of desktop computer monitors, they can also independently perform simple operations such as simple play. Games, watching movies, going online, etc.

Smart Display <br> <br> smart displays compared to tablets and one computer, it has a very big difference. First of all, the smart monitor is still a desktop monitor. Although the function is similar to that of the tablet computer, the size of the smart monitor is very different from that of the tablet computer. The smart display has a large viewing area and poor portability, so it is used as a display. The characteristics have not changed. Second, smart displays are still unable to compete with all-in-one computers in terms of performance. Most of them use the Android system to perform some very simple game operations, online video watching, and Internet chat, but they cannot perform complex calculations. Third, the cost of smart displays is much lower than that of one-piece computers, and the portability of the machines themselves is much stronger than that of the all-in-one computers.

A year ago, monitor manufacturers such as ViewSonic and BenQ have introduced smart displays with built-in systems. Even today, despite the development of smart displays, there is still not much improvement. However, I believe that smart displays are still a direction for future display product development. Following Successive Viewfinder, BenQ, and Asustek, Samsung, Philips and other vendors have also introduced smart displays. In addition to the products currently equipped with ARM processors, Intel's next-generation Atom processors are also expected to land on smart display devices. With the continuous improvement of the performance of mobile processors, smart displays are becoming more and more powerful, and their performance gap with computers is getting smaller and smaller. They can be used as a simple desktop entertainment system.

At the end of last year, we conducted related interviews with Samsung and AOC senior executives on the development of smart displays. They generally believed that smart displays were an important direction for the future development of the display industry. First of all, as an auxiliary product of desktop computers, smart displays can replace desktop computers in some simple applications, making it easier to operate while saving energy and protecting the environment, and can switch quickly when performing large-scale and complex operations. It is very convenient. . In fact, compared with all-in-one machines, the overall cost of smart displays is lower. After all, the cost of Android hardware is lower. Once again, as the performance of mobile processors continues to increase, the performance gap between all-in-one and smart displays will become smaller and smaller. Things that cannot be done on smart displays, such as large-scale games and integrated machines, will not be completed. Therefore, the value of all-in-one machines will be significant. Getting smaller and smaller.

Finally, the good prospect of smart displays lies in its segmentation and positioning. The functions of smart displays have many similarities with Android tablets, but large screens with sizes larger than 20 inches make the application form completely different. Just as smart TVs govern the living room, tablets are used on the bed, and smart phones are the best smart devices for going out, smart monitors can change some of the desktop computer usage rules. For example, you don’t need to open Windows desktops at all for minutes. , directly open the monitor to watch online video, or video chat with friends, relatively simple operation is also suitable for the elderly and children.
