The intelligence of "Internet of things" appears in the form of general-purpose computers

the "Internet of things" enables all objects to have the intelligence of computers but not in the form of general-purpose computers, and connects these objects with the network, which requires the support of embedded technology. Embedded is a low-key field, but it is everywhere. It has powerful functions and broad fields. All devices with digital interfaces, such as watches, microwave ovens, video recorders, cars, etc., will use embedded systems. Embedded technology has been developing rapidly in recent years. Embedded technology involves a wide range of fields and has broad employment prospects. Many industries can use it. With the development of the industry, the market demand for embedded personnel is gradually increasing, and the salary is also rising. In particular, the number of middle and high-end development posts is obviously increasing.

The Internet of things is essentially the integration of the Internet and the embedded system at the advanced stage. From a certain point of view, the Internet of things application system can also be regarded as the network application of the embedded system, because the "things" in the Internet of things system are basically various embedded devices. The premise of the connection between people and "things" is that "things" need to be embedded devices with the ability of perception and human-computer interaction. Therefore, embedded technology has become one of the important basic technologies of the Internet of things. Compared with the traditional embedded system, the embedded system in the era of the Internet of things has been improved correspondingly according to the specific applications and requirements of the Internet of things, including having a data transmission path, a data storage function, a proprietary operating system, a proprietary application program, following the communication protocol of the Internet of things, and having an identifiable unique number in the world network.


The traditional embedded field mainly relies on selling hardware to make money, so it is difficult to support a listed company, not to mention a company with a market value of 10 billion US dollars or even 100 billion US dollars. However, in the field of Internet of things, due to its integrated characteristics of end cloud, the entire business model has undergone tremendous changes, from one-time hardware sales in the embedded field to an operational money making mode, such as selling cloud storage, cloud services and content. In addition to the operating income brought by the Internet of things, it is also a powerful moat of mobile phone ecology, further increasing the added value of the mobile phone as a super terminal. It is believed that there will be more companies with a market value of 10 billion US dollars or even 100 billion US dollars in the Internet of things. Companies with a market value of tens of billions or even 100 billion US dollars will certainly solve the problem of fragmentation of the Internet of things, form a strong ecology and complete explosive growth.


In the long run, the embedded system will only become more and more popular. With the development of the artificial intelligence era, the embedded system will surely usher in a wave and a great change in technology. The more artificial intelligence wants to express its intelligence level, the more it needs to rely on embedded technology, which will develop towards automation control and human-computer interaction. Embedded system has many advantages such as small size, high reliability, strong function, flexibility and convenience. It will play an extremely important role in promoting the technical transformation, product upgrading, accelerating the automation process and improving the production efficiency of all walks of life.


The "things" connected by the Internet of things are all embedded systems, and the application system of the Internet of things can also be regarded as the network application of the embedded system. Before the era of the Internet of things, the traditional embedded systems were relatively simple. Most of the traditional embedded systems had no operating systems or only simple operating systems. They had limited perception, calculation and control capabilities for external devices, poor human-computer interaction functions, and did not have networking capabilities. They could not access the Internet of things, and could not meet the relevant needs of ubiquitous perception, reliable transmission and intelligent processing of the Internet of things. Therefore, with the development of computer, electronics, information and other technologies and the continuous improvement of the application demand of the Internet of things, the embedded system in the Internet of things era will develop in the direction of higher computing processing performance, lower power consumption, lower cost, smaller volume and better network connectivity, so that the embedded system in the Internet of things era has data transmission path, data storage function, proprietary operating system, proprietary application program Following the communication protocol of the Internet of things and having a unique number that can be recognized in the world network, the related fields that originally used the traditional embedded system need to continuously upgrade their products to meet the application requirements of the Internet of things.


With the evolution from embedded to the Internet of things, the technical complexity is getting higher and higher. However, for the developers of the Internet of things, the threshold is bound to be lower and lower. More and more developers can develop more innovative products based on simple script languages, rich ecological libraries and tools to meet the needs of people for convenient life and efficient production.
