Why Spend 100 Dollars on 1 Smart Switch

Smart home has not yet entered the track of mature development, but all kinds of price wars have started, we can find "freezing point" low-cost intelligent household products everywhere. As the saying goes, "man struggles upwards, price flows downwards", the low and popular price of smart home is the trend of the future, however the low price strategy, let people can no longer value the intelligent household products, the present high price become a reason of difficult to popularize for intelligent household. But, everybody has been focusing on low prices, so what kind of price is cheap?

It’s not difficult to find that normal switch just cost a few dollars in market, according to normal usage, those switches could achieve function of turn on/off for linked devices, which is enough for basic demand. So smart switch is expensive and not practical.

Max ever said that, the things with different nature can’t compared. Although they are both switches with same basic function, smart switch is different from normal switch on nature. Take the Wireless Smart Switch from Wulian as example, which can not only control the devices locally, but also can linked with smart phone and realize remote control, it also supports real-time monitor, can feed back the information of device’s status. The switch can also be linked with other devices to realize intelligentialize, for example, when a child is reading book and forget to turn on the light while dark rising, light sensor would link switch to light on automatically. Possess huge advance on both safety and stability, with high technological content. On the contrary, normal switch can just turn on/off the linked device, has no comparability with smart devices. It’s unreasonable that link the function of smart switch with the price of normal switch.

In any case, intelligent household products prices will come down sooner or later. However the industry and technology of smart home is not mature yet, and the price level can’t reach public receptivity, but which not means expensive. Whether the price of smart home product is high or not, need to be evaluated combined with the requirements and economic capability of public, as well as the performance, experience, service, perhaps the smart switch worth 100 dollars is just the one you need.

Wulian IOT Sensor Technology Co.,Ltd

Tobin J. M. Richardson, chairman of ZigBee Alliance, allegedly emailed a Chinese and English announcement to more than 400 ZigBee Alliance members and interested stakeholders on Oct. 20th, 2014, in which he claims that Chinese enterprise "Nanjing IOT Sensor Technology Co., Ltd." (hereinafter referred to as "Wulian Group") has been inaccurately and intentionally misadvertising its products as being "ZigBee Certified."

Now, this news has produced negative effects on Nanjing IOT Sensor Technology Co., Ltd. ("Wulian Group") and its partners. Therefore, Wulian Group hereto releases the following announcements:

1.      Wulian Group is the legal holder of the "ZigBee" trademark (Category 7, Category 11) recognized by Chinese Trademark Office (CTMO).

2.      Wulian Group has never publicized that Wulian Group's products have been certified by ZigBee Alliance.

3.      ZigBee Alliance established its "ZigBee Alliance China Regional Headquarters" in Wulian Group's Shanghai office in 2012. Wulian Group has never claimed that Wulian Group has represented ZigBee Alliance on any occasion. Wulian Group only has used the "ZigBee Alliance China Regional Headquarters" title in some promotional materials. We believe it's not improper to use the title, and Wulian Group has never received any written objection from ZigBee Alliance.

4.      Wulian Group will investigate the legitimacy of the ZigBee trademark on foreign products that have entered or will enter the China market, and will reserve the right of pursuing the protection afforded under China's trademark laws.

5.      Wulian Group demands ZigBee Alliance to withdraw the inappropriate remarks and eliminate the adverse effects initiatively.

Since this year, Mr. Osbourne, the chairman of ZigBee Alliance Board, and Mr. Richardson, the chairman of ZigBee Alliance have negotiated repeatedly on the promotion of ZigBee technology in the China market and the ownership of ZigBee trademarks with Mr. Zhu Jungang, the Co-founder & CEO of Wulian Group and his negotiation team. Wulian Group has emphasized several times that Wulian Group is willing to contribute to the global unity and authority of ZigBee trademarks. However, ZigBee Alliance allegedly insists that Wulian Group transfers the ZigBee trademarks to ZigBee Alliance unconditionally. This is unreasonable. Wulian Group thinks that these ZigBee trademarks are Chinese intellectual property acquired by Wulian Group as per Chinese laws via a legal way and in the country of China. These trademarks should belong to the enterprises, institutions, or alliances that are registered in China, or the branches that are founded by the Chinese relative authorities. However, this reasonable requirement was allegedly refused by ZigBee Alliance Board.

With the rapid development of IoT (Internet of Things) and the smart home industry, ZigBee technology is facing fierce competition from WiFi, Bluetooth, and other wireless technologies. Therefore, each ZigBee member company and related enterprises should unite and make full use of ZigBee technology to enhance market confidence in ZigBee technology. At this crucial market promotion moment, as the chairman of ZigBee Alliance, Mr. Tobin not only allegedly failed to concentrate on the strong challenge of Bluetooth, Wifi, and other technologies, but wasted precious time and energy in criticizing Wulian Group who has made great contributions to the popularization and promotion of ZigBee technology. For that, we are deeply confused and regretful.

As a company that has been dedicated to the research and promotion of ZigBee technology for years, Wulian Group is and will still be an important stakeholder of ZigBee technology. Wulian Group understands that the unity, authority, and uniqueness of the ZigBee trademark are very important to ZigBee Alliance member companies and other stakeholders. Wulian Group doesn't want to see the split of ZigBee supporters or any adverse information related to ZigBee since any damage to ZigBee's reputation will hurt Wulian Group as well. Wulian Group is still sincerely hoping that ZigBee Alliance will consult with Wulian Group and relevant Chinese government departments about the legal usage of ZigBee trademarks and product certification in rational methods. Wulian Group also hopes ZigBee product suppliers who plan to enter the Chinese market will use "ZigBee" marks with caution and contact us actively to discuss the authorization of legal usage of ZigBee trademarks in China. Wulian Group also welcomes ZigBee product suppliers who plan to enter the Chinese market to contact us and discuss the trademark usage authorization. Meanwhile, Wulian Group has appealed to Chinese Trademark Office (CTMO) and other related judicial departments to protect Chinese enterprises' legal rights, and make sure that intellectual property gets its due respect.

With the constant rise of new technology, global competition has become even more intense and complicated. Wulian Group is willing to cooperate closely with partners as always to make contribution to IoT and smart home development as well as intellectual property protection.

Wulian Group's Announcements Regarding the Statement in the Email from ZigBee Alliance Chairman

Patent Blazes the Path - Home Automation Giant Appears

Home automation has become one of the largest hot spot since this year. The top technology giant continues to make the power, and stimulate the market. No matter large enterprises or small ones are afraid to fall behind, so they rushed to the home automation industry, and even parts of the venture capital cannot wait to know the market completely, and invest in some young home automation enterprises. Therefore, home automation market is extremely hot now.

Let’s have a careful look at the development ideas of global technology giants. It is well known that they have possessed rich experiences of market competition since they’ve strived for so many years. They insist that thinking twice before leap, so they would never enter the market easily before thinking twice. Now, Google dare to take the lead in launching the war of home automation, not only because they’ve taken over home automation company – Nest Lab, but also they possessed many patents of home automation through acquisitions or purchase. What’s more, Apple, Samsung and Microsoft also prepared to enter home automation industry. They have investigated the market deeply and completed part of patents layout. Although they enter the market with different time, they have prepared for it. Apple possesses a lot of home intelligentization patents, and Samsung also possessed about 200 home automation patents. They’ve prepared to move on.

From the world’s leading institutions Thomson Reuters Intellectual Property Research Center survey data, showing that from the statistical results of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the China National Patent Office have received the patents of home automation since 2000, Samsung has belonged nearly 150 items of patents. Sony owns 60 items, not the half of Samsung, Google and Apple rank the NO.16 and NO. 30. From these, we can see these technology giants have the profound and lasting idea and experienced measures in wireless home automation area. Just see the patents, the biggest three smart home leaders of the future are becoming more and more clear.

The date of Thomson Reuters also shows, Nanjing IOT Sensor Technology Co,.Ltd of China has submitted more than 100 patents and more than 100 utility model patents. And 8 patents and more than 100 utility model patents have been approved. Many of them value a lot, enough to be a strong barrier for the competitors to enter this field. It is understood that Nanjing IOT Sensor Technology Co,.Ltd not only actively overall arrange the patents in the field of smart home, but also researched more than 200 kinds of smart home products and more than 100 kinds of products are in volume production now. And they also deployed the world's largest chain of retail smart home network, creating a unique business model in this industry. They have become a worldwide highly influential company in the field of smart home.

As the journalists investigation, judging from these public information of the industrial and commercial registration, patent inventor, network information etc, this rapidly developing, very low-key and mysterious enterprises belong to the domestics, no signs of foreign participation. The enterprise with this background has a unique natural advantage in the Internet of things smart home industry based on the domestic development which have near connections to the station security. Obviously, with the patent escort, excellent products, domestic background of the three conditions, the figure of domestic smart home giant is looming.
