Author: Peng Zhao (Founder of Zhicifang, Co-founding Partner of Yunhe Ziben) Original On the snow-capped plateau in Ganzi, Sichuan, at an altitude of 3,400 meters, temperatures approach -30°C, and strong electromagnetic fields are ubiquitous. Here, it is impossible to expect the massive amount of data collected by sensors to be transmitted back to the cloud thousands of miles away. Faced with such extreme spatial constraints, engineers from Zhongguo Diankeyuan made a bold decision: they embedded

Author: Peng Zhao (Founder of Zhicifang, Co-Founding Partner of Yunhe Capital) Original In the first three quarters of 2026, we have witnessed AI (Artificial Intelligence) integrating into the physical world at a breakneck pace. Whether it is embodied AI in factories or autonomous driving in cities, for large models to perceive reality and execute actions, every bit of data and control flow they ingest and emit must pass through the modules and sensors of IoT (Internet of Things) companies. Howe

By Zhao Xiaofei, IoT Think Tank, Original Over the past few years, the wave of AI (Artificial Intelligence) has primarily unfolded in the digital world. The evolution of large models has driven substantial progress in text generation, algorithm optimization, and more. Beyond these digital AI advancements, a more profound transformation is underway: AI is stepping into the physical world. Embedded in robots, AGVs, AMRs, industrial cameras, and smart sensors, it directly perceives, makes decisions

In September 2026, Dyson launched a product that seems somewhat uncharacteristic of the brand: the CameraJet™ Visual Imaging Toothbrush. This toothbrush features a built-in 1mm, 0.1-megapixel macro camera that scans 28 real-time images per second. Once the AI (Artificial Intelligence) interdental optical positioning algorithm identifies the interdental spaces, it triggers a conical water jet in as fast as 100 milliseconds. For this toothbrush, Dyson deployed 661 engineers and six years of develo

In the semiconductor industry, naming is somewhat of an art. Some companies are low-key and pragmatic, while others reveal extraordinary ambitions from the very beginning. Beken Corporation is exactly such a company that sparks imagination right from its name. What exactly is its relationship with Broadcom, the global communications semiconductor giant? When eefocus disassembled a Xiaomi karaoke microphone, a Xiaomi walkie-talkie, and an AI toy named "Fuzai", and saw the Beken logo prominently p
