Last year, Ahmed, a tourist from Dubai, took his family to Xiamen Gulangyu Island. While there, he stepped into a typical pit - the rented ordinary audio tour device didn't work properly under the Sunlight Rock, and only started playing "Piano Culture of Sizhoudian Garden" when they reached the beach. What was worse was that the Arabic explanations sounded like a robot reading a script, misinterpreting "Zheng Chenggong recovered Taiwan" as "Zheng Chenggong was active in Taiwan". The children were completely confused. In fact, many overseas users have had similar experiences: They wanted to have a deep exploration of the exhibition through audio tours, but were disappointed by the "incomprehensible, randomly triggered, unreliable" equipment.
    As a brand that has been providing audio tour services for 15 years under the Hefei Huima Information Technology Co., Ltd., Yingmi audio tour devices did not follow the path of "increasing parameters". Instead, they focused on the real pain points of overseas users - the language should be authentic, the triggering should be precise, the battery life should be reliable, and the operation should be simple. They have been able to provide services to Huawei, the British Museum, and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization for many years, relying on these "uncluttered but practical" details, so that each audio tour can help overseas users "understand the destination, not just enjoy the show".

I. When overseas users choose voice tour devices, they mainly consider these 4 points (all based on real needs)

When overseas friends choose voice tour devices, they don't look for fancy functions, but rather whether they can solve the actual problems of visiting exhibitions and touring scenic spots. Yingmi has understood these needs from its 15 years of service experience. Every design is aimed at the pain points:

1. Multilingual "understandable and resonant", not machine translation

The most annoying thing for overseas users is not "lack of minority languages", but "having languages but not being able to understand them". The Arabic explanations of ordinary devices translate "mortise and tenon" as "woodenstick"; the English explanations sound like reading instructions, only mentioning "Song Dynasty Ru kiln" as "old porcelain", completely lacking cultural relevance.
Yingmi didn't deceive with multilingualism:
The 8 commonly used languages were all recorded by native speakers, and it would also find cultural entry points familiar to overseas users. For example, the Arabic version was recorded by a former tour guide from the Dubai Natural History Museum, when talking about "Silk Road cultural relics", it would say "This is the same as the spice trade route familiar to the people in the Middle East"; the French version was recorded by a former tour guide from the Louvre in Paris, when talking about "Ming Dynasty furniture", it would mention "and the furniture of Louis XIV period in France also emphasized 'symbol of imperial power'", allowing overseas users to have resonance upon hearing.
Customization for rare languages is also fast, last year the Swedish royal delegation wanted to visit the Forbidden City, Yingmi completed the Swedish language tour guide in 48 hours, even translating the professional term "the nine beams and eighteen columns of the corner tower mortise and tenon" accurately, unlike other devices that would just fumble.
Switching languages is also simple, the device screen can display 8 languages, Japanese tourist Sato was visiting the museum at the Soho Museum, sometimes listening in Japanese to "the source of cobalt blue material", sometimes switching to English to remember professional terms, "without having to look for staff, just press a button, it saves a lot of trouble".

2. Triggered "should ring when it should" and not cause trouble in the museum

The most embarrassing thing when visiting a museum is that the device suddenly interferes - standing in front of a Ming Dynasty blue and white porcelain, suddenly there is a tour guide for Qing Dynasty calligraphy and painting; or walking past the exhibit for half an hour before it rings, then looking back and finding it's a waste of time. Ordinary devices often have this problem in densely packed exhibition areas, eight out of ten times will have this problem.
Yingmi dealt with this issue with two methods:
For outdoor scenic spots such as Gulangyu Island and Longhu Mountain, use RFID-2.4G technology to set up "invisible signal zones", place a small transmitter beside the scenic spot, when you wear the i7 device and enter the range of 1-35 meters, it will ring immediately, not too early or too late. Norwegian tourist Erik was visiting the ice age in Iceland, "when you reach the entrance of the ice cave, the device immediately tells 'the formation age of the glacier', earlier than the tour guide shouting in the group, it's even timely",
For museum densely packed areas such as the painting hall of the Soho Museum, use NFC touch technology, the C7S device rings only when touched by the exhibit label, even if you shake your hand and touch adjacent labels, there will be no interference. Dutch scholar Yang Ke said: "Previously, the equipment in the Soho Museum had interference, now using Yingmi, when you click 'Shen Zhou's painting', you can listen to the painting, when you click 'Wen Zhengming's calligraphy', you can listen to the calligraphy, the exhibition pace is all determined by yourself."

3. Battery life should "stand up to a full day", not break down in extreme environments

When overseas users visit scenic spots, they often stay from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., if the device runs out of power halfway, it will be troublesome; if going to Dubai Desert (45℃) or Iceland Ice Age (-20℃), ordinary devices either crash or lose power very quickly.
Yingmi did very practical work in battery life and durability:
It uses a patented PMU lithium battery, the i7 device can last for 7 hours, the C7S can last for 8 hours, the M7 neck strap model lasts even longer, up to 16 hours. Dutch tourist Yang Ke visited Gulangyu Island from morning to evening without charging, "during a two-hour break on the beach, the device didn't turn off and could still hear the explanations from the Zheng Chenggong Memorial Hall",
The device is also durable, it can withstand -20℃ to 45℃, and is sweat-proof and sand-proof. Erik in Iceland put the device in his pocket, accidentally got snow on it, wiped it clean and it could still be used; Ahmed was in the desert of Dubai. The equipment was covered with fine sand, but the explanation was still clear after he brushed it off. "It's even more durable than my mobile phone. The mobile phone would automatically shut down in the desert."

4. "It's so easy even a fool can use it." Don't make the elderly and children have trouble

There are often elderly people and children in overseas groups. The equipment has many buttons and the interface is all in Chinese, making it impossible to use. Once there was a Swedish study tour group, the teacher spent 20 minutes helping the children change the language, and in the end, they still had to ask the staff for help.
Yingmi's operation design focuses on "zero threshold":
There's no need to pair when turning on the device, it automatically connects to the signal and remembers the last used language; the screen icons are easy to understand, "Playback" is a circular arrow, "Volume" is ±, no need to read the text. Swedish children could press the SET button by themselves to connect the device and switch to Swedish;
Renting equipment is also convenient. The Z50 self-service kiosk is placed at the entrance of the scenic area, the interface will change according to the phone's language, Visa and ApplePay can be used for payment, and the equipment can be picked up in 2 minutes. Ahmed rented equipment for his family, "My dad is 70 years old. He followed the icons and clicked by himself, and he rented it without my help."

II. Three core devices of Yingmi: Select based on overseas scenarios, avoid wasting money

Yingmi did not adopt the approach of selling a single device to everyone. Instead, it designed three specialized devices tailored to the common scenarios that overseas users frequently encounter:

1. i7 Ear Hook Style: A "lightweight assistant" for solo travelers

Suitable for friends who go sightseeing alone, such as Dutch tourists visiting Gulangyu Island or Japanese tourists exploring the Forbidden City:
Light and compact, it weighs only 20 grams. When worn on the ears, it feels nothing. Eric hiked in Iceland for 5 hours and "didn't feel any pressure on his ears, nor did he lose balance while running or jumping";
It has automatic outdoor sensing, no need to press buttons. When approaching a scenic spot, it starts to speak. It's suitable for those who don't want to worry about operating it;
It is sweat-proof and sand-proof. It can be used in the seaside and desert. Yangke played on the beach in Gulangyu Island, and the device got wet with seawater. After wiping it clean, it could still listen clearly.
Yangke reported: "When visiting Gulangyu Island from morning till night, I left the device on all day without turning it off. I could still hear the piano explanation at Suyizhu Garden. It was better than traveling freely on my own and I understood more than just reading the labels."

 

2. C7S Touch Style: A "professional partner" for museums

Suitable for visiting museums and corporate exhibition halls, such as Dutch scholars viewing the Museum of Fine Arts or German suppliers inspecting Huawei's factory:
The touch function is extremely precise. In the "Four Masters of Painting" exhibition area of the Museum of Fine Arts, touching anywhere would trigger the sound, and even touching adjacent labels would not cause interference;
The screen can display detailed pictures of cultural relics, allowing for magnification of "golden wire patterns" when explaining "Yuan Dynasty Ru Kiln" without having to get close to the display case;
The explanation content is detailed. The explanation at the Huawei factory said, "The specific parameters of each detection step of the chip," not just "This is the production line";
German Siemens' Mark said: "When showing the Huawei factory to the suppliers' group, using C7S for the 'chip detection' explanation, the English commentary even included 'the error does not exceed 0.01 millimeters,' and the suppliers said it was more professional than an ordinary tour guide and they could review the details themselves."

3. E8 Team Style: An "efficient tool" for study tours/enterprise receptions

Suitable for large groups, such as the Swedish study tour group visiting the Summer Palace or the Shanghai Cooperation Organization meeting reception:
One transmitter can connect 50 receivers, with 200 channels. Even if three teams are using it simultaneously, there will be no interference. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization used it to receive delegations in Russian, German, and English, each speaking their own language;
It can have both primary and secondary speakers. The Chinese tour guide explains the culture, and the English tour guide provides details. There is no need to switch devices. Anna said when leading the study tour group, "The switching was smooth, and the students were more engaged.";
The headphones are made of medical silicone, not uncomfortable to wear for 4 hours, and you can adjust the volume yourself. Elderly people with poor hearing can also hear clearly.
Anna reported: "When leading 50 Swedish children on a visit to the Summer Palace, each child used E8 to listen to the Swedish language explanation. The dual-language function made the bilingual tour guide's cooperation extremely smooth. Before this, using other devices always caused interference. This time, there were no problems throughout the tour, and the children's study reports had many more details."

4. Self-service Rental Cabinet Z50: "Unattended staff" for scenic spots

If scenic spots or museums want to save on labor costs, Yingmi's Z50 self-service cabinet is particularly suitable:
Overseas users can rent it using Visa or Apple Pay, without binding to Chinese payment methods;
The device will automatically charge and undergo ultraviolet disinfection when returned. After using it at the Museum of Fine Arts, tourists no longer asked about "whether the headphones are clean";
The backend can view the device status. Staff do not need to check the battery levels one by one, saving a lot of work.

III. Yingmi's Confidence: Not a Small Workshop, But Speaking with Strength

When overseas users choose equipment, they are most afraid of "having to buy but having no guarantee". Yingmi has established a solid foundation by relying on its 15 years of accumulated strong capabilities:

1. Reliable technology, complete certifications

It is a national-level high-tech enterprise, with core patents such as SOC noise reduction and PMU batteries; the equipment has passed EU CE and RoHS certifications. Last year, a batch was sent to Europe, and during customs clearance, the customs checked the certifications and directly released it, without delaying the client's museum special exhibition; it also supports a wide voltage range of 100-240V, and can be used when brought back to China, without the need to buy a converter.

2. Self-production, stable quality

It has a 50-acre factory and 4 automated production lines. From chips to assembly, it is fully controlled by itself. Each piece of equipment must pass 5 rounds of inspections (signal, noise reduction, drop, high and low temperature, antibacterial), and from the first unit to the 1 millionth unit, there have been no safety issues. Huawei's long-term order placement is because they trust this quality.

3. No blaming in after-sales service, overseas users are also at ease

There is a 24-hour multilingual hotline (400-990-7677), with English and Arabic customer service available at any time; if the equipment breaks down overseas, it can be remotely debugged within 10 minutes, and if it needs to be repaired, it will be sent back within 10 working days, during which a backup machine will be provided. Last year, the equipment of Bosch in Germany broke down in Shanghai, and calling the hotline, it was adjusted within 5 minutes, without delaying the reception.

IV. Real Feedback from Overseas Users: Whether it's good or not, you have to try it to know

"When we took our family to Gulangyu Island and rented Yingmi7, when the Arabic-speaking guide mentioned 'trade between Middle Eastern spices and Chinese porcelain', the child was particularly fascinated and even asked 'how do spices get to China'? The equipment was used from morning till night, it never needed charging, and it was much more free than joining a tour group." - Dubai tourist Ahmed
"When we took a Swedish study tour group to visit the Chinese National Museum, the E8 equipment allowed the child to listen to the explanation in Swedish, and the dual-language function made the bilingual guide cooperate smoothly. Previously, using other equipment always had interference, but this time there were no problems throughout the process. The students' study report had twice as many details about the 'Silk Road' as before." - Swedish study tour guide Anna
"During the reception of German suppliers by Huawei, they used the C7S touch explanation for the production line, and the English explanation clearly explained 'the three processes of chip inspection', and the supplier said 'it's more professional than the manual tour guide', now all international receptions use it, and it saves a lot of work." - Huawei reception manager Ms. Li
