Yesterday, Huawei’s"HarmonyOS"Brush the screen, today, Huawei’s glory"Smart Screen"Will be the first show again.
On the afternoon of August 10th.Huawei’s glorious "Smart Screen" will be unveiled as the first product equipped with "HarmonyOS" operating system. Litchi News will report to you at the press conference in Dongguan.
However, what is a "smart screen" and why do some people say that "glory smart screen is the future of TV"?
Yesterday, HarmonyOS announced that today is the first show of HarmonyOS.
On August 9th, the largest developer conference in Huawei’s history was held in Dongguan, where 5,000 global developers witnessed the birth of the new distributed operating system "HarmonyOS OS". The glory "Smart Screen" to be released on the afternoon of the 10th will be the first terminal product in the world to adopt Huawei’s "HarmonyOS OS" operating system, which means that domestic manufacturers finally have hardware products equipped with "domestic systems".
At present, the mainstream computer operating systems in the market are Windows and Mac OS, and the mainstream mobile operating systems are ios and Android. At present, the operating systems used by mainstream domestic mobile phones and computers are Google’s Android and Microsoft’s Windows.
Therefore, the combination of Huawei’s self-developed "HarmonyOS OS" and its self-developed product "Smart Screen" means that domestic smart devices can finally be "integrated with nature".
In layman’s terms, it means "put your own dishes on your own plate."
From then on, domestic manufacturers may no longer be "hardware assembly factories" and "system interface optimization factories", but really have the core technology and the "right to speak" of benchmarking technology giants.
As Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei’s consumer business, said: "If Android can’t be used, you can always enable HarmonyOS."
Not TV, but the future of TV.
Zhao Ming, president of Huawei Glory, said that the "smart screen" is not TV, but the future of TV.
How to understand this?
For a simple example, the current smart TV is turned on by Android system.
The manufacturer embeds this operating system into the TV chip, which enables the TV to download various apps, browse and play Internet content, etc.
With the help of the distributed operating system "HarmonyOS OS", Glory Smart Screen can not only meet the needs of audio-visual entertainment, but also realize brand-new functions such as information sharing, control management and multi-device interaction.
Think about it, the screen of mobile phone can be displayed on TV in real time, and intelligent hardware devices such as computers, routers and air conditioners can also be controlled through TV. Is it quite a feeling of life in the era of "Internet of Things"?
Of course, the real power of the glory smart screen will be announced at the press conference on the afternoon of the 10th.
HarmonyOS VS Android Who’s your type?
At the beginning of HarmonyOS system exposure, many people speculated that HarmonyOS was just a "stunt" for Android. Today, people find that the meaning of "HarmonyOS" is not only as simple as the mobile phone system, because it will be the "next generation OS" facing the future.
In Chinese interpretation, Harmony OS refers to the aura of the world before Pangu opened heaven, which means "opening heaven and earth", while the English name Harmony OS of HarmonyOS system means peace and convenience.
As the saying goes, "HarmonyOS’s ambition is based on harmony".
Theoretically speaking, compared with the existing operating system, the biggest feature of HarmonyOS is that it allows users to open a "new world" where different devices are linked and shared with each other.
For example, at present, we often need to transfer files between mobile phones and computers through WeChat, QQ, etc. If the files are too large, we can only use data connection lines. The distributed architecture of "HarmonyOS OS" enables applications to call hardware peripherals of other terminals.
Simply put, devices such as mobile phones, tablets, computers, smart watches, car-mounted large screens, smart speakers, etc. may freely transfer files to each other, and even set each other, so there is no need to worry about "recognition" between devices, let alone data processing capabilities.
For software developers, a program used to be designed to adapt and develop different hardware such as mobile phones, tablets and computers.
The most basic thing is to consider that different devices have different sizes of screens and different resolutions, some need finger touch, and some need to support mouse … … The workload is huge.
The "HarmonyOS" system can automatically adapt to mobile phones, watches, tablets, computers and other different equipment terminals through a set of codes. In the future, perhaps there will be less and less embarrassment like "Android tablet", and developers will be able to achieve "one development, multi-terminal deployment" through HarmonyOS.
Of course, while "opening up the world", HarmonyOS has also specially optimized the content of "software ecological harmony" such as fluency and security. Why do Android phones use more cards? To borrow Yu Chengdong’s metaphor, at present, most operating systems treat all resource scheduling equally, just like a road with both slow-moving trucks and fast-moving cars. The optimal dispatching in HarmonyOS is equivalent to dividing the roads into fast lanes, slow lanes and bicycle lanes, so that the processes will not be blocked.
In terms of security, the microkernel of HarmonyOS system naturally has no Root, and the system is isolated from the external core server, and there is no unified "key", so the bottom layer is difficult to be broken. This level of security technology used to be only used in aviation and military industries.
For more information about "HarmonyOS OS" and "Smart Screen", Litchi News will continue to pay attention to it at the press conference in Dongguan.
