On October 30, 2018, the China Household Electrical Appliance Technology Conference (CHEATC), the most important annual technology event in the home appliance industry, was held in Ningbo. The conference gathered nearly 700 R&D elites in the global home appliance industry to discuss the technological development trend of the home appliance industry in the era of artificial intelligence + Internet of Things, and shared many cases with high application value.

The China Household Electrical Appliances Technology Conference was set up as the main venue on October 30 and 6 sub-venues on October 31, of which the plenary conference on October 30 focused on the development of relevant technical standards in the era of intelligent Internet of Things, as well as the home appliance industry in intelligent manufacturing, new material applications, core component supporting technologies, intelligent product platform construction and other levels, will be the current China's home appliance industry transformation and upgrading of the technical highlights to fully display.

Jiang Feng, chairman of the China Household Electrical Appliances Association, said in his speech that since the beginning of this year, the situation at home and abroad has been complicated, and home appliance companies are facing a series of new problems and challenges. The domestic market demand is weak, the growth rate is declining, and the international market is facing the severe challenge of Sino-US trade frictions, which has an adverse impact on the overseas expansion of China's national electrical products. Changes in the domestic and foreign market environment have increased the operating pressure of home appliance companies. Faced with such a situation, innovation is the first driving force leading development. The more difficult the time, the more we must increase investment in technological innovation, And China's home appliance enterprises should unswervingly take the road of independent innovation, strengthen their confidence in innovation, and enhance their ability to innovate independently. Providing high-quality scientific and technological supply for the development of the home appliance industry and promoting the home appliance industry to move towards the middle and high end of the global value chain is an important responsibility and mission of our national power science and technology workers. It is hoped that the majority of home appliance science and technology workers will have the courage to innovate, dare to make breakthroughs, use technological innovation to promote the further upgrading of the industrial structure, meet user needs with more effective supply, improve the competitiveness of enterprises with high-quality development, and improve the ability to deal with market risks.

It is precisely in the complex development trend of the market that the technical elites of China's home appliance industry are full of spirit and gather in Ningbo, bringing more than ten main speeches such as "Evolving Internet of Things Devices Change Your Life", "Key Technologies of Connecting 5G, Cloud Computing and Internet of Things", "Application Prospects of Internet of Things in Smart Homes", "Security Trends and Hidden Dangers in the Era of Smart Home Appliances LoT - and Work Report on Smart Home Appliance Cloud Cloud Interconnection Security Standards", "Global White Goods Industry Upgrade and Development Trend" and so on. According to observations, many shared technical cases and R&D trends have been highly recognized by the participants, and it is not uncommon for speakers to be surrounded by participants during the meeting, and the value of the China Home Appliance Technology Conference as the world's largest home appliance technology docking platform has been fully demonstrated.

"This is the 15th technical conference hosted by the China Household Electrical Appliances Association, which is both a continuation of the past and an extension of the future. Through the uninterrupted technical exchanges every year, the conference has played a subtle impact on the progress of the industry and the broadening of technical personnel's thinking and research capabilities. Although the meeting time is short, it condenses the essence of one year's technical research of the home appliance industry and continues to promote the transformation and upgrading of China's home appliance industry. Wang Lei, vice chairman of the China Household Electrical Appliances Association, said.

It is reported that in addition to the main venue of this conference, six sub-venues of refrigerators, air conditioners, washing machines, kitchen appliances, water heaters and small household appliances have been set up for the participating technical elites to fully display and exchange cutting-edge technologies in their respective fields
