The , formally the ZigBee Alliance, in conjunction with large smart home device manufacturers, is driving the development, creating a world where you will be able to purchase a smart device and be confident, after seeing the Matter logo, that it will work seamlessly within your home network ecosystem.
What is the Matter smart home standard?
The Matter smart home standard provides user confidence that a Matter Smart Home product can universally communicate with other Matter-enabled products. The vision is to have a stable home ecosystem that comprises devices that use different wireless network protocols such as Wi-Fi and Thread. To facilitate this, we must have a unified standard with which smart products will connect and operate.
What is Matter protocol?
The Matter protocol can be thought of as a language, allowing devices to talk to each other and communicate effectively within their ecosystem. To do this effectively, they are required to talk in the same language, such as the Matter protocol.
