Under the leadership of the Zigbee Alliance, many well-known manufacturers have been working for some time now on a uniform standard for devices in the smart home. “Connected Home over IP” (CHIP), as it has been called so far, is not based on the Zigbee protocol, but on WiFi, Thread and Bluethooth. Now the cat is out of the bag: The Zigbee Alliance has renamed to Connectivity Standards Alliance, and CHIP became “Matter”.
Seit sich Ende 2019 Amazon, Apple, Google, Comcast und die Zigbee Alliance zusammen getan haben um mit „Connected Home over IP“ oder kurz „CHIP“ einen neuen Standard für die Hersteller-übergreifende Vernetzung von Geräten im Smart Home zu etablieren, hat man nur wenig gehört. So richtig bekannt ist das Projekt heute noch nicht. Nicht einmal die deutsche Wikipedia hat einen Eintrag dafür. Doch erste Geräte könnten vielleicht schon im Laufe des Jahres verfügbar werden.
