Comparable to sci-fi blockbusters, Huawei Smart World 2030 reveals the world after 10.

Many times, we foresee the future from science fiction movies.

Back to the Future predicted shoes with automatic shoelaces, suspended skateboards and giant flat-screen TVs. In the era when computers were not popular, The Matrix explored topics such as programs, artificial intelligence and virtual worlds. Recently, the hot hyperuniverse can also be found in Freedom City of Out of Control Player and Oasis of Ready Player One. ...

On September 22nd, Huawei Smart World 2030 Forum, with the theme of "Unlimited Exploration, Open the Future", was comparable to a sci-fi blockbuster, and predicted what the smart world would look like in 10 years: medicine, food, housing, transportation, cities, enterprises, energy and credible figures.

D: What is the experience of "preventing diseases"?

In Huawei's prediction of the smart world in 2030, it describes health as follows: "In 2030, people will rely on highly sensitive biosensors and massive health data stored in the cloud to make health computable. Humans will be able to achieve active prevention, from treating diseases to preventing diseases; With the help of Internet of Things, AI and other technologies, future treatment plans will no longer be the same; Large medical equipment is more portable and realizes family telemedicine linkage. "

"Prevention of disease" comes from the ancient Huangdi Neijing. "If you go to work, you can treat the disease before it happens, and call it if you don't treat it", which means taking corresponding measures to prevent the disease from changing and preventing the disease from changing gradually.

The aging population has brought many chronic diseases, and according to statistics, 85% of the deaths are caused by chronic diseases. Real-time detection of chronic diseases is the key. Technologies such as sensors, cloud and artificial intelligence can help achieve this goal. Taking blood pressure detection as an example, optical sensors can provide high-quality data input for blood pressure modeling and algorithm, and cloud services and AI can bring active health management to users.

The same is true of ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment. At present, 80% of the market is occupied by expensive imported high-end ophthalmic medical devices. Driven by AI, ophthalmology diagnosis and treatment is also changing, bringing a new experience of smart medical care. The AI-aided diagnosis system for fundus lesions independently developed by Suzhou Wei Qing integrates Huawei's cloud artificial intelligence and connection technology. With the top clinical strength of Union Medical College Hospital, the segmentation accuracy of its automatic AI-aided diagnosis system solution on glasses and discs reaches 92.5%/97.5%, exceeding the international level and obtaining diagnosis results in milliseconds. The work efficiency is hundreds of times higher than that of doctors, and the screening and evaluation of AI-assisted diagnosis of glaucoma are efficiently realized.

Telemedicine is also amazing. Previously, with the help of China Mobile and Huawei, the General Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army completed the first remote human surgery based on 5G in China-implanting a "brain pacemaker" for Parkinson's disease. Doctors installed a "brain pacemaker" in Hainan for Beijing patients 3000 kilometers away. This seemingly impossible magical operation is becoming more and more common. With the empowerment of digital technology, more and more people will be able to "cure diseases".

Food: Imaginary Space of Smart Agriculture

When it comes to agriculture, we always think of four words: "depending on the weather to eat", which naturally leads to fluctuations and great risks in agricultural planting. So what can be done to change this situation?

The answer is yes. In Huawei's Smart World 2030 forecast, agriculture has become a new agriculture blessed by digital technology: exchanging data for output and green diet for the whole people.

The traditional pumping irrigation system is limited by terrain, animal injury, electric shock, rain erosion, bare wires and so on, and even the water tank has limited space and insufficient power supply. Huawei's smart water supply scheme in India's smart farm can build an intelligent irrigation system based on wireless technology, which can realize remote control of water quantity, ensure that water is used in the right place at the right time, and minimize the waste of water resources.

In the 70,000-square-meter high-tech intelligent greenhouse of Jiangsu Binhai Lang Kun Agricultural Park, Huawei integrated the new generation intelligent agricultural technologies such as 5G, Internet of Things and VR, and introduced Dutch intelligent greenhouse technology, Israeli precision irrigation technology, Spanish automatic packaging technology and German precision control technology. In the whole process of crop growth, it seems that there is a clever brain in precise control and efficient operation.

This is precision agriculture based on data. It is no longer just relying on experience, no longer looking at the sky to eat, but under the blessing of AI, big data and the Internet of Things, making agriculture intelligent and accurate.

This is the biggest change in agriculture with an ancient history of thousands of years. From the 1.0 era of physical strength and animal power, to the 2.0 era of agricultural machinery, and then to the 3.0 era supported by automation equipment, it will now enter the 4.0 era of wisdom and accuracy.

Energy: Bit Management Watt

"New renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic and wind power have entered the turning point of commercialization. Power electronics technology and digital technology are deeply integrated to form an' energy cloud' and realize the' bit management watt' of the entire energy system. " Wang Tao, managing director of Huawei and president of ICT products and solutions, said this at the Smart World 2030 Forum.

Bit is the smallest symbol, watt is the most basic symbol of energy, and bit management watt is the integration of digital technology and energy.

On the one hand, due to the new energy revolution, traditional carbon energy is unsustainable in the face of ecological and environmental crisis, and clean energy is imperative. As we all know, China has set the goal of "peak carbon dioxide emission in 2030 and carbon neutrality in 2060", and all localities are accelerating the adjustment and optimization of energy structure and vigorously developing clean energy such as solar energy and wind energy.

On the other hand, because digital technology is also a big energy consumer, it is necessary to use technology to solve the problems arising from technological development. It is predicted that there will be 70 million global communication sites in 2025, and the annual power consumption will be as high as 660 billion kWh. The global data center will also have 24 million racks in 2025, and the power consumption will be as high as 950 billion kWh/year.

All these require the energy system to be transformed into low-carbon, electrified and intelligent under the empowerment of digital technology. As Li Licheng, an academician of China Academy of Engineering, said, to build a new power system with new energy as the main body, it is necessary to build an information-based and digital new power system.

With the help of Huawei's smart photovoltaic solution, the 2.2GW photovoltaic project in Hexian County, Qinghai Province meets the requirements of UHV power grid best and is connected to the grid stably. At present, the power generation of the system is more than 2% higher than that of the traditional scheme; After introducing many intelligent means, the operation and maintenance efficiency has been effectively improved. For example, with the intelligent diagnosis scheme, the operation and maintenance inspection that originally took two months only took 20 minutes.

In Baofeng Group's 640MW photovoltaic power station on the east bank of the Yellow River in Ningxia, solar panels can move by light like sunflowers, which increases the power generation by more than 20% compared with traditional photovoltaic power stations. Intelligent technologies such as wireless broadband system, unmanned aerial vehicle inspection and intelligent photovoltaic cloud have greatly improved the operation and maintenance efficiency. Compared with traditional photovoltaic power plants, most of them need 100 people for operation and maintenance. Wisdom needs 30 operators here.

Bit management Watt is inserting the wings of digital empowerment in the energy field and moving towards smart energy.

Postscript: Explore the borderless and open the future.

The medical care, food and energy mentioned above are just some of Huawei's many predictions for the smart world in 2030. More detailed reports such as Eight Exploration Prospects and Four Insights show us an intelligent world worth looking forward to: better quality of life, more food, expanded living space, no need to worry about congestion on the way to work, living in a livable city, enjoying renewable energy, and giving repetitive work to machines. ...

Among them, the author's feelings can be summarized as three "unbounded":

First of all, cooperation has no boundaries. Huawei Smart World 2030 Forum is full of talents. Speakers include Steven Johnson, a famous futurist and popular science writer who is known as "Darwin in science and technology", Chen Qingquan, founding and rotating chairman of the World Electric Vehicle Association and academician of China Academy of Engineering, Depp, co-chairman of roland berger Global Management Committee, and Wang Zhiqin, vice president of China Information and Communication Research Institute, which can be called a big collision of ideas.

It is easy to think of a famous saying by Ren, the founder of Huawei: "A cup of coffee absorbs the energy of the universe". 20 17 Ren once explained its meaning in a speech: "A cup of coffee absorbs cosmic energy, not to say that caffeine has any magical effect. On the contrary, we use some western habits to express openness, communication and communication ... the form is not important, but the spiritual contact is important. The coffee shop is just a place for communication, and it is an opportunity and place for communication whenever and wherever. "

It can be said that Huawei Smart World 2030 is a typical case of "a cup of coffee absorbs cosmic energy" and is the product of * * *. According to Wang Tao, in the past three years, the research team has communicated with more than 1000 scholars, customers and partners in the industry, organized more than 2,000 seminars, referred to data and methods from authoritative organizations such as the United Nations, the World Economic Forum and the World Health Organization, and absorbed clues from scientific magazines and papers such as Nature and IEEE, as well as reports from relevant industry associations and consulting companies.

Second, technology has no boundaries. Imagine the future with science fiction and realize the future with technology. The beautiful intelligent world 2030 is not a mirage, but a real picture with technical support. Behind all this is the endless exploration of technological boundaries.

Take communication technology as an example. Many of us have witnessed and experienced 1G, 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G technologies, and will further develop into 5.5G and 6g ... 5.5G not only upgrades the three major scenarios of 5g (eMBB, mMTC, URLLC), but also adds new scenarios (UCBC, RTBC, HCS), which will play an important role in uplink broadband, broadband real-time interaction, and so on.

The exploration of 6G technology has opened up the imagination space. Ren mentioned 6G in a recent conversation: "The future growth space of 6G may not only be large-bandwidth communication, but also the ability of detection and perception. This is a bigger scene than communication and a new network capability, which can better support the expansion of business operations." With the integration of communication and perception, 6G builds an integrated network of perception, transmission and calculation, which supports centimeter-level ultra-high precision positioning, air quality analysis, medical health scanning and other new scene applications.

Thirdly, it is unbounded fusion. Looking at the many predictions of Huawei Smart World 2030, there is a similarity, that is, the integration of digital technology and related technologies, and even seemingly unrelated disciplines and fields are breaking boundaries and moving towards integration. For example, the digital energy mentioned above is the integration of digital technology and power electronics technology, precision agriculture is the integration of digital technology and agricultural technology, and smart medical care is the integration of digital technology and medical technology.

This is also the essence of the theme of Huawei Smart World 2030, "Explore Boundless, Open the Future": Only by breaking boundaries and being brave in exploration can the future of the smart world be opened.
