走向物联网与精细化生产，知识化、自动化、精细化的生产方式的基础在于物联网。
2016年7月,软银公司斥资243亿英镑收购微芯片巨头ARM公司。软银总裁孙正义认为物联网将会引领下一轮技术爆炸。2018年,物联网设备的数量将会超过移动设备;2021年全球将拥有18亿台PC、86亿台移动设备、157亿台物联网设备;2035年,数据量将会增长2400倍,从1EB增长到2.3ZB在未来20年,物联网设备的数量将会超过1万亿台。孙正义指出:“物联网与人工智能的关系,正如同眼睛与大脑配合使生物得到进化的关系。物联网爆发即将来临。”
物联网让人与万物接入同一张网络,让人与机器随时互动人的一切可以数据化的行为、反应,都会引起机器和生产线的波动,各种数据在云端交汇,大量计算通过云服务器完成,再通过产品与服务反馈于人,循环上升,从而把人的多样性与物质世界联系在一起,彼此催生,共同进化。
《奇点临近》的作者雷蒙德·库兹韦尔认为,人类正处于物联网引领的工业革命时代。3D打印技术是2020年前创新型工业革命的主要推动技术。到2020年,我们的衣服都可能被开源设计,可以直接从云端免费下载。3D打印技术的发展前景目前尚不明朗,不过库兹韦尔的话呼应了前面说的新工业范式对多样化需求的满足。除此之外,从食物到音乐,都可以通过物联网精细化生产,云计算是其内在逻辑。
To the Internet of things and fine production
The foundation of knowledge, automation and refinement is the Internet of things.
In July 2016, Softbank Corp spent 24 billion 300 million pounds to acquire microchip giant ARM. Softbank President Sun Zhengyi believes that the Internet of things will lead the next round of technology explosion. In 2018, the number of Internet of things equipment will exceed the mobile equipment; in 2021, the world will have 1 billion 800 million PC, 8 billion 600 million mobile devices and 15 billion 700 million Internet of things; in 2035, the volume of data will grow 2400 times, from 1EB to 2.3ZB in the next 20 years, the number of Internet of things equipment will exceed 1 trillion. Sun Zhengyi pointed out: "the relationship between the Internet of things and AI is just like the relationship between the eyes and the brain to make the organisms evolve. The Internet of things is coming. "
The Internet of things allows people to access the same network with all things, so that all the people and machines can interact all the data of the behavior, reaction, will cause the fluctuation of the machine and production line, all kinds of data in the cloud converge, a large number of calculations through the cloud server, through the product and service feedback to the people, cycle up, thus the diversity of people With the material world, they promote each other and coevolve.
Raymond Kurzweil, author of "approaching singularity", believes that mankind is in the era of industrial revolution led by the Internet of things. 3D printing technology is the main driving technology of the innovative industrial revolution before 2020. By 2020, our clothes may be designed by open source and can be downloaded from the cloud for free. The prospect of 3D printing technology is not yet clear, but Mr coz well's response echoes the new paradigm of industry that meets the diverse needs. Besides, from food to music, it can be refined through the Internet of things, and cloud computing is its inherent logic.
