What are the high-tech toys? 20 of the coolest high-tech toys

When parents choose toys for their children, they will consider whether the toy will really interest their children. However, the emergence of many high-tech toys on the market has caused great confusion for parents. Are these high-tech toys suitable for children? What are the more popular high-tech toys on the market?

How to view high-tech toys

High-tech toys, as soon as you hear the name, sound like high-end toys, which are very helpful for children. They can help babies develop intelligence, hands-on skills, etc. However, a research report published by British scientists at the beginning of this year pointed out that high-tech toys are not much better than traditional toys in improving babies' language learning and mathematical abilities, and all this is just toy manufacturers to make parents who want their children to be successful pay more. This is their real purpose. There are even high-tech toys for 9-month-old babies, and Professor of Education at the University of Stirling in the UK, Plowman, pointed out again. In order to prevent their children from losing at the starting line, parents try every means to buy such toys, but Plowman pointed out that there is no big problem for children to have these toys, but if they can better promote the learning of basic language and mathematical abilities, then I don’t think it will be better than traditional education methods. It can be seen that parents should look at high-tech toys in an ideal way.

Current status of children's smart product market

Data shows that global toy sales in 2013 exceeded 92.5 billion US dollars. If this part of the market is replaced by smart toys, and the unit price of smart toys is relatively high, for manufacturers, these functions will add huge added value. A smart toy can be sold at several times the price of an ordinary toy, which will bring huge economic benefits to the manufacturers.

"Children's smart toys are mainly aimed at children aged 0 to 13, with a focus on children aged 3 to 13. Currently, the children's smart toy industry is on the eve of an explosion."

The reason for making such a judgment is determined by the following factors: First, with the development of science and technology, science and technology have the possibility of integrating intelligence into children's toys, and the trend of technological advancement of traditional toys has become unstoppable; second, today's children's parents are mainly "post-80s", they are more receptive to technological products, and they also pay more attention to their children's comprehensive qualities such as science and technology; third, today's children have been exposed to many technological products since birth, such as tablets, and they are more likely to accept smart toys.

Judging from the current situation of the brands of children's smart products, compared with start-ups, the giants acted earlier, and more and more home appliance giants and Internet giants have begun to explore this field. Because in the eyes of these manufacturers, the field of children's smart hardware has a huge market dividend. For example, industry giants such as 360, Huawei, and Tencent have begun to join in and launched their own children's smart hardware products. Looking at the international market, technology giants such as Google and Amazon have increased their investment in the field of children's smart products.

With the entry of these well-known manufacturers, many small companies quickly followed suit to grab a piece of the market. However, some industry insiders pointed out that, taking the current children's smart watch products in China as an example, in addition to several major manufacturers, many companies that make children's smart watches are "copycat" companies that were defeated after the popularization of thousand-yuan smart phones. Because the children's smart watch market is hot, these companies also quickly followed suit, but in fact, these manufacturers are more likely to produce products with a herd mentality.
