Cross-border expert team and their little wolf smart beacon

Beijing Tianlang News Industry Co-founder and COO Fu Shumin was born in 86 years, member of Beijing Cave Adventure Association, outdoor leader, amateur radio enthusiast (certified) outdoor 5 years experience, has assisted in participating in the Beijing TV station record channel related outdoor documentary filming . Before joining the Terius News team, he managed for the middle and high level of an Internet company.

In China, there are currently 130 million users participating in outdoor sports. Among them, 60 million users like rock climbing, camping, crossing and other professional outdoor activities. In developed countries such as Europe and America, outdoor sports is a way of life, along with the national living standards of our country. The increase, more and more people began to exercise outdoors. However, there are frequent outdoor accidents and lack of corresponding rescue mechanisms. At present, outdoor accidents are generally based on the method of searching for mountains. They consume a lot of manpower and resources. The personnel involved in search and rescue must also face the risk of secondary injury. Poor signal, or no cell phone signal, facing the mountains, the trapped people can not be sure or can not prepare to describe their location, and can not get in touch with the outside world.

The birth of the little wolf intelligent beacon

In response to this situation, Beijing Sirius News has launched the Xiaolang Smart Beacon. It is worth emphasizing that the project is the champion project of the Beijing Innovation Zone held by Huaqiang Core City. Behind such a great product, there must be a strong team behind it. Co-founder and COO Fu Shumin introduced that the team of Xiaolang Intelligent Beacon is a cross-border integration team with top domestic radio experts and experienced outdoor enthusiasts. They may be a diligent code farmer in the company, or an expert in the field of radio frequency, but when they go outdoors, they wear a jacket, pick up their bags, climb the mountains, explore the world, and become a senior outdoor coffee.

Fu Shumin is one of the senior outdoor big coffees. He said: "After playing outdoor for 5 years, the analysis found that the most effective rescue force in the outdoor is the teammates who travel with you, but the teammates often don't know where you are and what problems are encountered. We thought of the C4I system used in the military." So the little wolf smart beacon was born.

Xiaolang Smart Beacon is a location-based integrated communication solution. It is built-in high-precision GPS module through hardware self-organizing network. The smart phone APP displays the location of other surrounding teammates, their own location, their own trajectory, leader trajectory, etc. information. In addition, communication can also be carried out through the self-organized private network, and these only need you and your teammates to have the wolf smart beacon, and can be teamed up without the support of mobile phone signals.

The small wolf intelligent beacon has its own network, the team position shows each other, the leader track display, personal track record and other functions, soft and hard combined and effectively reduce the hardware cost. The battery of the Wolf's smart beacon uses built-in high-capacity lithium battery, and the charging interface adopts Micro USB interface, which can be used for continuous battery life by using ordinary charging treasure.

A good product must be polished through many difficulties. Fu Shumin said: "Because there is no reference, Xiaolang intelligent beacons have encountered many problems in the process of research and development. During a lot of data research, they understand the real needs of users and go to the pseudo-realism. People who develop radios know that It takes a lot of time and effort for the radio to be reliable and stable. It has accumulated a lot of experience. Under the continuous efforts of the team of the wolf, we will optimize the indicators of the Wolf's intelligent beacons. ”

Have technology and speed, not afraid of the cottage

However, having good ideas is inevitable to be taken by others, especially in China. In this regard, Fu Shumin said: "The little wolf smart beacon is not a low threshold product such as charging treasure. In the structure, the underlying chip, the overall stability still needs a lot of effort, I believe that some of these technology points are small The cottage workshop can't be completed. In addition, Xiaolang Smart Beacon is a brand new product as a brand new field. We are also exploring the needs of users. We are constantly improving our products and constantly introducing new products. We must strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights, strengthen internal management and apply for patents, etc. when we want to maintain our "fast" advantage."

Fu Shumin hopes to gain recognition from the media and users by participating in this hardware innovation competition. He believes that everyone's attention can make the wolf grow. For the next finals, the Little Wolf Smart Beacon team hopes to get a good score and get more recognition.

Hard-creative experience

As a startup team, Fu Shumin also has several entrepreneurial experiences to share with the hard-working people on the road. He believes that there is a large amount of homogenization and low thresholds in domestic entrepreneurship. For example, today there was an explosion, and I found that I can do it myself with a few mature modules, and make different promotional highlights. Even if I am an innovative project, he thinks that such hardware products do not have certain technical thresholds, and there is no certain Innovation is difficult to maintain for a long time, and finally made a hammer sale.

Another part of the entrepreneur is too idealistic. I don't think of technical difficulties or problems in the supply chain, or the product is not grounded. The user demand is a pseudo-demand. Finally, it is not abortion or recognition by the user. Therefore, he believes that a good entrepreneurial project must first be grounded. For example, if you are a medical intelligent hardware project, and the team is born with a bicycle, such a project is ultimately the result I listed above. Another point to note is that the product should be solid and have strategic planning. It is not that a product is finished as a crowdfunding. The entrepreneurs are not doing a hammer sale but going on for a long time.

Finally, the entrepreneurial team is very important. The structure of the co-founder, the composition of the core team, the capital chain, and whether the equity institution is reasonable. Entrepreneurship is to create a career. If you encounter some setbacks, you will often encounter things that are gray-faced. How to go on, how to go further requires entrepreneurs to make some foresight.

China Hardware Innovation Contest: I hope that Chinese entrepreneurs can innovate more and better products, and wish the 2015 China Hardware Innovation Competition to be successfully held and form a leader in leading hardware innovation.
