How it's used
Beyond the literal sense of physical computer components, this term is frequently used in business or urban planning to describe tangible infrastructure like buildings, transport networks, or equipment. It contrasts directly with 軟件, which refers to intangible assets such as management systems, software programs, or service quality. Using it to describe physical facilities makes your speech sound more professional and analytical.
