Matter

Making connections simpler, more secure and scalable with the foundation for connected things in home and building automation applications.

What is Matter?

Interoperable, open, secure and simple. Matter is a royalty-free standard to connect compatible devices and systems with one another. Matter runs on Thread and Wi-Fi® network layers and uses Bluetooth® Low Energy for commissioning. Matter solutions will be interoperable with the major smart home ecosystems like Apple® Homekit®, Google AssistantTM, Amazon Alexa, and Samsung SmartThings.

Connect: Matter introduction

The Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) has introduced a new standard called Matter. Our experts discuss this new protocol as well as its various applications.
