As one of the "New Infrastructure" initiatives, the Industrial Internet is not only attracting widespread market attention but has also been specifically mentioned in a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee.

　　Recently, the term "New Infrastructure" has become popular! On March 4, the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China held a meeting, emphasizing the need to accelerate the construction of new infrastructure such as 5G networks and data centers. Soon, the market categorized 7 major areas: 5G infrastructure and applications, photovoltaic grids and ultra-high voltage, industrial internet, intercity high-speed rail and intercity rail transit, new energy vehicles and charging piles, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing and big data centers, and crowned them with the concept of "New Infrastructure".

　　Among them, the Industrial Internet, as part of the "New Infrastructure", is not only attracting widespread market attention but has also been specifically mentioned in a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee. With the gradual deepening of the overall deployment of the "New Infrastructure", relevant ministries and commissions are continuing to increase policy support for the Industrial Internet. On March 20, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "Notice on Accelerating the Development of the Industrial Internet" (the "Notice"), proposing "twenty measures" to accelerate the development of the Industrial Internet.

　　The Notice clearly proposes to "encourage local governments and enterprises to use the Industrial Internet to achieve information, technology, production capacity, and order sharing, and to achieve precise allocation and efficient docking of cross-regional and cross-industry resources", and "encourage local governments to guide social capital to establish industrial internet industry funds", etc., to promote the accelerated implementation of the integration of the Industrial Internet and industries.

　　Experts predict that the Industrial Internet is expected to achieve an average annual compound growth rate of about 14% in the next three years. According to calculations by experts from the Industrial Internet Industry Alliance, the direct industrial scale of China's Industrial Internet in 2017 was approximately 570 billion yuan, and it is expected to reach one trillion yuan by 2020.

　　The "blueprint" has been drawn, and all that remains is to "roll up our sleeves and work hard". As a product of the deep integration of new generation information technology and manufacturing, the Industrial Internet connects all aspects of enterprise production and sales, and on this basis, achieves intelligent production, operational optimization, and transformation of production methods through the comprehensive and in-depth perception of industrial data. This requires the support of numerous sensing technologies, and one of the key technologies is the sensor.

　　Sensors are the foundation and core of the Industrial Internet and are key components of automated intelligent equipment. The realization of the Industrial Internet "blueprint" will bring huge development opportunities to the sensor industry.

　　What is a sensor? Simply put, it is an electronic component that collects information data. Without thousands of components, data transmission cannot be completed, and the Internet of Everything cannot be realized. With the rapid development of sensor technology today, various types of industrial sensors, including photoelectric, thermal, gas-sensitive, force-sensitive, magnetic-sensitive, acoustic-sensitive, and humidity-sensitive sensors, have been widely used in production sites.

　　In the manufacturing industry, data acquisition is a difficult point. Many companies' production data acquisition mainly relies on traditional manual methods. During the acquisition process, human recording errors are prone to occur, and the efficiency is low. Some companies have introduced relevant technical means and applied data acquisition systems, but due to the limitations of the systems themselves and the fact that companies have not chosen data acquisition systems suitable for their needs, they cannot achieve real-time, accurate, and extended management of information acquisition, resulting in information gaps between units.

　　On the one hand, the Industrial Internet has brought opportunities to sensor companies, but it has also put forward new requirements for sensor technology, mainly reflected in higher requirements for sensor sensitivity, stability, and reliability. At the same time, the popularization of the Industrial Internet means that sensors are everywhere, and their large-scale use requires lightweight, low-power consumption, and low-cost sensors, as well as networkability, integration, and intelligence.

　　However, the domestic sensor industry still faces problems such as small enterprise scale, insufficient innovation capabilities, and reliance on imported key products, and there is still a considerable gap in fully meeting the needs of the Industrial Internet. In the face of huge market demand, domestic sensor companies should actively promote technological and core component R&D and innovation, build a complete industrial structure system, form industry leaders, and promote technological integration in related fields to accelerate the development of China's sensor industry and meet the needs of the Industrial Internet for sensors.

　　The intelligent development of industry and the interconnection of everything rely on the support of sensors. According to market research institutions, the size of China's sensor market in 2019 will reach 166 billion yuan, and the average annual compound growth rate in the next five years (2019-2023) will be about 11.65%, reaching 258 billion yuan in 2023.
