With
the support of more 1.8 million registered developers worldwide, AppGallery and
the HMS ecosystem has continued to show progress this year. AppGallery
currently has over 96,000 apps integrated with HMS Core and more than 490
million global active users. In addition, it also achieved a record 261 billion
app downloads and distributions between January and August 2020.
In
a single year, HMS Core 5.0’s open capabilities have increased from 14 Kits to
56 Kits, while the number of APIs has jumped from 885 to 12,981 covering seven
major areas, helping developers achieve innovation and simplify the development
process.
For
instance, the CG Kit in the Graphics field improves graphics, image quality,
and experience, as well as improving game screen rendering efficiency. The
location kit in the App Services category meets the positioning requirements,
providing centimeter to millimeter accuracy location tracking depending on the
scenario.
Huawei
is committed to fully opening its core software and hardware capabilities. It
has opened up core software services, such as browsing, search, map, payment,
advertising kits, to accelerate innovation in app development. Huawei has also
opened up hardware capabilities such as its world-class camera capabilities, AR
map capabilities, communication, and transmission tools, as well as its leading
privacy and security protection capabilities. Through these, Huawei seeks to empower
developers to create a new generation of well-loved innovative apps across
different categories.
Huawei
also has extensive support to assist developers explore business opportunities
in China and other global markets, by providing relevant consulting service,
localization and integration, marketing and campaign services.
Going
forward, Huawei continues to expand developer services. Huawei is building
three global ecosystem cooperation labs in
HUAWEI HiLink: Enabling Billions of IoT Devices to Connect, Manage, and
Exchange
As
the standardized language of IoT Devices, HiLink breaks down barriers between
IoT devices from different brands and manufacturers, providing a unified
platform where devices can connect easily, and interact seamlessly.
This
year, upgrades to HUAWEI HiLink will be made in five key areas: connection,
interaction, operation, solution provider, and authentication. The goal is to
make billions of IoT devices connect easily, more convenient to manage and
control, and interact seamlessly to enable an all-scenario hardware ecosystem.
At present, there are 50 million active users contributing more than 1 billion
all-scenario device interaction requests every day, with a cumulative 400
million downloads of the Smart Life App
Automobile
is also a key tenet of the IoT industry. The HiCar platform will continue to
empower the automobile industry. HiCar is currently collaborating with over 150
car models with more planned so that more car owners will enjoy the new smart
travel experience in the near future.
Huawei
is committed to the growth of the IoT hardware ecosystem. By providing more
devices with access to HiLink platform, it strives to make IoT development
easier and more efficient, enabling Huawei to simultaneously support partners
in establishing industry leadership in the IoT sector.
HUAWEI Research: The innovative research platform
HUAWEI
Research, which focuses on front-end research, opens two key platform
capabilities HUAWEI Research Kit and HUAWEI Research Cloud. These capabilities
facilitate efficient innovative research processes, accelerate technological
breakthroughs, incubate apps innovations as well as quickly achieve result
transformation. As a result, scientific research institutions, innovation
institutions, industry organisations, medical institutions, and other industry
partners are empowered, allowing industries from all sectors to prosper.
In
the Active Health Field, Huawei assisted in heart health research by ensuring
that health research data collected is accurate and diverse. In the Travel
Safety Field, mobile and wearable devices intelligently collaborate with
automobiles to bring new safe-driving technologies such as the collision
avoidance system and driver fatigue care. In the Home Life Field, Huawei
harness multi-device wireless sensing capabilities to provide features, such as
fall detection, non-inductive breathing monitoring, and spatial positioning.
Huawei
will continue to drive its software and hardware ecosystem moving forward. It
is committed to opening up core technologies and capabilities further and
empowering global developers and partners to create new possibilities together.
