谷歌母公司Alphabet Inc.（納斯達克：GOOG）（納斯達克：GOOGL）的一款新設備在美國聯邦通信委員會（FCC）上被發現，這可能暗示了Nest恒溫器的升級版。
What Happened: On Monday, a new "wireless device" from Google, identified as GJQ8U, made its way through the FCC. It is equipped with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a 60GHz radar, which aligns with the Soli technology used in the 2020 Nest Thermostat, reported 9to5Google.
發生了什麼：一個名爲GJQ8U的來自谷歌的新“無線設備”於週一通過FCC。據9to5Google報道，它配備了Wi-Fi，藍牙和60GHz雷達，與2020年Nest恒溫器使用的Soli技術相符。
The radar sensor in the 2020 model was used to activate the display when someone approached the thermostat and for Home & Away Routines. The new device also features a physical FCC label, unlike the electronic version used in other Google devices.
2020年的模型中的雷達傳感器用於當有人接近恒溫器時激活顯示器和充當家庭和外出常規。與其他谷歌設備中使用的電子版本不同，新設備還具有物理FCC標籤。

It is speculated that the new device could be a successor to the high-end Nest Learning Thermostat or a refresh of the entry-level model. Other possibilities include a Smart Display or a smart speaker, although the latter may not fully use the Soli technology without a display.
有人推測，新設備可能是高端Nest Learning Thermostat的繼任者或入門級模型的更新。其他可能性包括智能顯示器或智能音箱，儘管後者可能不會完全使用Soli技術而沒有顯示器。
Why It Matters: In 2014, Google acquired Nest, a leading player in smart home technology known for its internet-connected thermostat, for $3.2 billion. Since the acquisition, Nest has faced challenges with new product releases, the departure of its founders, and ongoing privacy concerns.
爲什麼它很重要：2014年，谷歌以32億美元收購了Nest，這是智能家居技術領域的領先者，以其互聯網連接的恒溫器而聞名。自收購以來，Nest在新產品發佈、創始人離職以及持續的隱私問題方面面臨挑戰。
In March 2021, the Nest unit introduced a sleep pattern tracking feature in its second-generation Nest Hub smart display. This feature used the device's built-in microphones and ambient light and temperature sensors to track sleep patterns and disturbances, raising privacy concerns but also opening up a new revenue stream for the company.
2021年3月，Nest推出了第二代Nest Hub智能顯示器中的睡眠模式跟蹤功能。此功能使用設備內置的麥克風、環境光和溫度傳感器跟蹤睡眠模式和干擾，引起了隱私問題，但也爲公司開闢了新的營業收入渠道。
