(Dongguan, China, 10 September 2020) Huawei Developer Conference 2020 (Together) kicked off today in Songshan Lake, Dongguan. During the keynote speech, HUAWEI unveiled a series of innovations including HarmonyOS 2.0, EMUI 11, HMS, HUAWEI HiLink and HUAWEI Research that will enable developers and partners around the world to create better product experiences for users. In addition, There are also HUAWEI MateBook X, HUAWEI MateBook 14, HUAWEI WATCH GT 2 Pro, HUAWEI WATCH FIT, HUAWEI FreeBuds Pro and HUAWEI FreeLace Pro six new scenes in the conference during the surprise appearance.

In the three-day event, Huawei will also bring wonderful links such as technology Forum, Songhu Dialogue, Tech. Hour and Codelabs. Developers from all over the world will gather in Songshan Lake to chat about technology and make friends, and bring the whole scene wisdom experience to every user.

“Huawei’s breakthrough in ecological development cannot be achieved without the strong support of developers and partners around the world. At this developer conference, Huawei will fully open up its core technologies, hardware and software capabilities, and work with developers to drive the vigorous development of smart ecology in all scenarios.” “No one can put out the stars,” said Richard Yu, managing director and CEO of Huawei’s consumer business. Every developer is a spark for Huawei to gather.”

HarmonyOS 2.0: Officially open source, with a smartphone Beta for developers by the end of the year

In 2019, Huawei creatively launched HarmonyOS, a distributed operating system for all scenarios, enabling intelligent terminals to achieve fast discovery, ultra-fast connectivity, hardware mutual assistance, and resource sharing. Today, HarmonyOS 2.0 launches with a full range of distributed capabilities including distributed soft bus, distributed data management, distributed security, and an adaptive UX framework that enables developers to quickly reach tens of millions of new devices and users.

HarmonyOS will be open source, with simulators, SDK packages and IDE tools available to developers. A beta version of HarmonyOS for smartphones will be released to Chinese developers at the end of 2020. In his speech, Yu announced that Huawei donated the code to the China Open Atom And Open Source Foundation and announced HarmonyOS ‘open Source roadmap: “HarmonyOS will be open source for 128KB to 128MB devices such as large screens, watches and cars from September 10, 128MB to 4GB devices with memory from April 2021, and for all devices larger than 4GB from October 2021.”

EMUI 11 incorporates HarmonyOS ‘core distributed technology to move beyond mobile interactions to interact with HarmonyOS’ IoT devices, bringing users a fresh, full-scene experience of extreme speed dating, minimal interaction and direct service. For example, mobile phones use a large camera to make video calls, harmonyos-powered smart home devices are connected to each other through touch, and home appliances go from “screenceless” to “screenceless”.

HMS Ecology: the world’s third largest mobile application ecology broke ground

Huawei has always been committed to building a trustworthy, fair and open ecosystem to provide users with diversified innovative experience. With the support of 1.8 million developers worldwide, the Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) ecosystem has witnessed rapid growth: More than 96,000 applications integrate HMS Core, and AppGallery has 490 million active users worldwide. From January to August 2020, the number of AppGallery applications distributed reached 261 billion, making it the third largest mobile application ecosystem in the world.

Within one year, the open capacity of HMS Core 5.0 increased from 14 kits to 56 kits, and the number of apis jumped from 885 to 12,981, covering 7 fields and rapidly forming the advantage of differentiation and innovation.

Among them, CG Kit brings better graphics and image quality, thus improving game rendering efficiency; Location Kit, through Super GNSS urban canyon positioning, VPS visual positioning and other technologies, meets the positioning accuracy requirements from meter level, sub-meter level to centimeter level in different scenes.

Open to global huawei adhere to the core of the hardware and software capabilities, including maps, search, pay five root, browse, advertising service engine, as well as the industry’s leading ability, AR map ability, the abilities of communication and transport, privacy, security, etc., can fully fu games, video, entertainment, business, social in various fields such as developers, To jointly create a new generation of innovative applications that users love.

In addition to technology openness, Huawei also provides developers with rich marketing resources in the commercial and operational fields, multi-channel brand exposure and user reach, preferential developer income sharing model and advertising resource support, accelerating global developers to expand new opportunities. At the same time, HMS Ecology is assisting overseas developers to enter China. Just like domestic developers, when overseas developers enter the Chinese market, they face challenges such as customer acquisition, product localization, and policy compliance. Huawei is committed to providing local services for global apps to enter the Chinese market, including consulting services, launch support services and marketing services.

Huawei will continue to invest in ecological construction: three new ecological cooperation laboratories in Germany, Poland and Russia, and five new global developer service centers in Romania, Russia, Egypt, Mexico and Malaysia. Through localized service organizations and platforms, Huawei will better serve developers to enter the global market.

HUAWEI HiLink: Make billions of IoT devices easy to connect, control and interact with

As the “Mandarin” of the smart home industry, HUAWEI HiLink platform solves the interconnection problems of smart devices of different brands and manufacturers, enabling cross-brand ecological products to “understand” and effectively “communicate” with each other.

This year, HUAWEI HiLink ushered in important upgrades in the five aspects of connection, interaction, operation, solution provider and certification, making the connection of billions of IoT devices easier, more convenient control and more natural interaction. Up to now, HUAWEI HiLink has activated 50 million ecological users, installed 400 million smart life apps, and received 1 billion device interaction requests per day in all scenarios.

Vehicles are also an important part of the IoT industry. HUAWEI HiCar platform continues to empower the automotive industry. It has reached cooperation with more than 150 models, which means that more car owners will enjoy smart travel in the future.

Huawei aims to be an enabler of hardware ecosystem, connecting more IoT ecosystem products through HiLink, making IoT development easier and more efficient, and helping partners gain a leading position in the global IoT industry.

HUAWEI Research: Innovative pre-research platform to explore the future world

Focusing on front-end Research, HUAWEI Research Platform opens the capabilities of HUAWEI Research Kit and HUAWEI Research Cloud, helping scientific Research institutions, innovation institutions, industry organizations, medical institutions and other industrial partners to carry out innovation Research efficiently. We will accelerate technological breakthroughs, incubate innovation in application, quickly translate achievements, and help industries in all sectors flourish.

In the area of active health, it facilitates heart health research based on accurate and diverse health research data; In the field of travel safety, new safe driving experiences such as anti-collision driving assistance and driving safety care can be brought through the intelligent collaboration of mobile phones, vehicles and wearers. In the field of home life, the wireless sensing ability of multiple devices will be released to realize fall detection, non-inductive breathing monitoring, spatial positioning and other functions, and explore new application forms.

In the future, Huawei will continue to adhere to the dual-wheel drive of hardware and software ecology, and further open up the most core technologies and capabilities, enabling developers and partners around the world to share, win-win and create new possibilities together.
