As a technology company, independent R&D capability is the key to core competitiveness. Xiaomi has long recognized this. In order to truly achieve autonomy and control, Xiaomi has spared no effort to increase its investment in self-research over the years, covering chips, algorithms, systems, processes and other fields, and has achieved fruitful results. This time, the commissioning of Xiaomi's smart factory once again confirms Xiaomi's determination to move towards the road of real independent innovation.
The Xiaomi smart factory that has been put into operation recently can be called a concentrated display of Xiaomi's independent innovation achievements. This modern smart factory, which covers an area of 287 acres, is positioned as world-class by Xiaomi"Lighthouse Factory"It not only has an annual production capacity of 10 million units, but also a symbol of Xiaomi's intelligent manufacturing capabilities.
In this factory, Xiaomi has comprehensively independently developed the assembly test package equipment, software system, etc., with a self-development rate of 968%, and the software system is 100% autonomous and controllable. Relying on the standardized and modular design, the factory can achieve a very high level of flexibility, support fast changeovers, and meet different process needs.
What's even more noteworthy is that Xiaomi has deployed inside the factory called"Light-chasing platform"of smart manufacturing solutions. Based on full-scenario digitalization, the platform realizes the independent analysis, decision-making and execution of full-stack data based on the dataization of production factors, manufacturing knowledge modeling, and business execution engine, and realizes real intelligent manufacturing.
Thanks to this platform, the Xiaomi 14 series flagship phones have been able to be mass-produced at this factory, and the production verification of the upcoming Xiaomi 14 Ultra has been successfully completed. It can be said that Xiaomi's smart factory demonstrates Xiaomi's super strength in the field of intelligent manufacturing and lays the foundation for developing more intelligent terminal products in the future.
In terms of independent research and development of key components, Xiaomi's latest generation of surging T1 communication chip is one of the representative achievements. As Xiaomi's first chip to support Tiantong satellite communication, the surging T1 can achieve faster satellite search, connection and delay performance, so that the performance of Tiantong satellite communication can be increased by 10%, the performance of cellular communication can be increased by up to 37%, and the performance of Wi-Fi can also be increased by up to 16%.
In addition to the improvement of communication performance, the surging T1 chip is also highly intelligent and adaptive. It has a built-in AI subsystem, which can realize intelligent identification of frequency bands, adjust the working frequency of the antenna in real time, and improve communication efficiency. It can also self-learn the user's daily route and base station status to continuously optimize the communication experience. This unprecedented intelligent communication experience is due to Xiaomi's continuous investment in basic algorithms and customized design.
The independent innovation of communication chips not only injects new impetus into the development of flagship mobile phones, but also helps Xiaomi comprehensively promote the ecological strategy of people, cars and homes. In fact, as early as last year, Xiaomi proposed to build"The whole ecology of people, cars and homes"。With the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, this innovation is further upgraded, not only does the phone itself support two-way satellite communication, but it can also be equipped with a dedicated one"Amplifier"with"In-vehicle communication module", really realized"People and cars"Ecological integration.
With the blessing of Xiaomi's self-developed hardware and software, Xiaomi's future will be Xiaomi"The whole ecology of people, cars and homes"The degree of intelligence will also reach a new level. For example, at the human level, the user's health data can be directly connected with smart hardware such as mobile phones and TVs; At the level of vehicles, advanced functions such as unmanned driving will gradually mature; At the home level, application scenarios such as ecological home and whole-house intelligence will continue to expand.
And relying on the strong self-research strength, Xiaomi's"The whole ecology of people, cars and homes"The strategy will also have a broader space for development and create a more intelligent future life for users.
