Chapter 214 Multimedia Science and Education Market
Fu Hao didn't expect Lin Yuting's father to open an electronics factory to make interactive electronic whiteboards.
Fu Hao is no stranger to electronic tabula rasa, because he wrote about it when he wrote the novel of rebirth.
In the future, the state will vigorously promote multimedia digital education, interactive electronic whiteboards and newer alternative products interactive smart tablets, which will replace the black version of all primary and secondary schools in large cities in China and become the standard configuration of almost all schools.
The so-called interactive whiteboard is actually a complete set of systems - the electronic whiteboard is connected to the computer, and the content of the computer is projected onto the electronic whiteboard screen by using a projector, and with the support of a special application, it can construct a large screen, interactive collaborative meeting or teaching environment. You can use a specific positioning pen instead of a mouse to operate on a whiteboard, you can run any application, edit, annotate, save files, and other things that can be done on a computer using a keyboard and mouse. Thus replacing the traditional blackboard and chalk way of education.
As we all know, in the past, teachers used to write and teach on the blackboard with chalk in school teaching.
However, after the 80s of the last century, Europeans and Americans began to invent and use writing whiteboards to replace black plates, mainly to avoid dust from harming the health of teachers and students. But in China, whiteboards are not popular.
The electronic tabula rasa is also developed from the European and American markets, the earliest product was in 1991, by the Canadian SMART company took the lead in research and development, and the electronic tabula rasa was productized, and promoted and used in the European and American markets.
The interactive electronic whiteboard can be said to be a key step in the history of the development of the whiteboard. It truly enables two-way interaction between the whiteboard and the computer, the presenter and the audience, and the teacher and the students.
Products in this field are still the first to be developed by Canada's SMART company, and the earliest domestic research and development is the dragon science and education company in Shenzhen.
In 2001, they took the lead in the research and development of interactive whiteboard hardware and software. In the same year, the first interactive electronic whiteboard in China was launched.
Before 2004, the demand for electronic whiteboards in the domestic market was very small, and the market was mainly occupied by famous brands such as SMART, Promethear, and Julong Science and Education.
However, since 2005, with the gradual maturity of domestic educational multimedia conditions, electronic whiteboards have begun to emerge in the domestic market and gradually expand the scale of sales.
Since 2008, with the large-scale emergence of ultra-short-throw and short-throw projectors in the projector market. The problem of projection light occlusion in the use of interactive electronic tabula rasa has been effectively controlled, and the demand for electronic tabula rasa worldwide has expanded rapidly, and the application of domestic interactive electronic tabula rasa has matured rapidly. The industry as a whole is accelerating. Since that year, with the policy support of the State Education Commission, many localities have begun to promote the plan of replacing blackboards with electronic whiteboards in schools.
After entering 2010, under the condition that the state vigorously supports intelligent teaching and continuous progress of network technology. Advanced equipment such as electronic whiteboards and more advanced interactive smart tablets. It has been used more and more in the field of teaching, which not only promotes the rapid development of the information education equipment industry, but also enhances the interactivity and interest of the classroom.
Looking forward to the next 10 years, a new generation of smart tablets will replace the interactive electronic whiteboard system and become the choice of more and more schools and companies.
The reason why this is so is because the practicability of the smart tablet is stronger, and with the upgrading of the technology industry, its price will gradually decrease several times more expensive than the electronic whiteboard. This has greatly squeezed the market of electronic whiteboards. Eventually, around 2025. The smart tablet will completely replace the electronic tabula rasa, making the electronic tabula rasa a thing of the past.
The so-called intelligent tablet system, to put it simply, is a huge LCD TV that can be controlled by touch screen, which is much simpler and more convenient than the electronic whiteboard interactive system.
Interactive electronic whiteboard, a system needs to be equipped with a variety of equipment such as whiteboard, projector, computer, audio, etc., and an interactive intelligent tablet saves the trouble of integration, only one tablet can be used directly, with natural integration and convenience.
And more importantly, the resolution of the interactive smart tablet is higher than that of the electronic whiteboard played by projection, which can better protect the eyes of students.
In terms of Fu Hao's research and memory when he wrote the book, around 2015, the market share of smart tablets has exceeded that of interactive electronic whiteboards.
But this share is more reflected in the application of companies and enterprises, and the school still seems to be promoting the interactive electronic whiteboard system.
After all, a smart tablet of more than 100 inches costs tens of thousands of dollars at this time, which is much more expensive than the entire interactive electronic whiteboard system.
In 2015, the price of a set of general interactive electronic whiteboards, plus projection, plus computers, and software was about 15,000 yuan. No matter how cheap the collection system of miscellaneous brands is, you can get it for a few thousand yuan, which is much cheaper than a smart tablet.
The price of smart tablets has not been reduced, mainly because the technical content is relatively high, and ordinary small enterprises can't do it.
On the other hand, there are many companies that can independently develop interactive electronic whiteboards.
After the outbreak of the interactive electronic whiteboard market, bad brands were born in the south to compete in this market.
It is precisely because of this mixed situation of entering the industry that the market competition of interactive electronic whiteboards has become very chaotic, which gives the opportunity for smart tablets to replace them.
Fu Hao thought that Lin Yuting's father was an electronic whiteboard, and he didn't know if it was a big electronics factory. But no matter what big or small factory it is, with the continuous decline in the market share of the electronic whiteboard industry in the past two years, the efficiency of Lin Da's factory should have a great regression and decline.
No wonder he's worried.
It can be said that this industry has just entered the sunrise period, and it has quickly entered the sunset period, and the speed of industrial upgrading and updating is too fast.
The average electronics manufacturer simply can't keep up with this update speed.
"Did your father make his own brand of electronic whiteboards? Or OEM for big brands? Fu Hao asked Lin Yuting.
"He makes his own brand."
"What's that?"
"Qingyun Technology, have you heard of it? A small brand. ”
"Qingyun Technology ......"
Fu Hao thought in his heart, he hadn't heard of it in the past, and he didn't seem to have heard of it in the future, it seems that Lin Yuting's father is indeed a small electronics factory.
"My father's name is Lin Qinghua, my mother's name is Mo Shengyun, and my father's company is named after them, hehe." Lin Yuting said sweetly, in her opinion, this is a very happy and interesting thing. (To be continued......)
