Amazon, Apple, Google, Zigbee Form Group to Develop Open Standard for Smart Home Devices



Amazon, Apple, Google, and the Zigbee Alliance have formed a working group that plans to develop a new royalty-free connectivity standard for smart home devices. The standard will increase compatibility among smart home products with security as a fundamental design tenet.

Zigbee Alliance board member companies like IKEA, Legrand, NXP Semiconductors, Resideo, Samsung SmartThings, Schneider Electric, Signify, Silicon Labs, Somfy, and Wulian are onboard to contribute to the project.

The goal of the Connected Home over IP project is to simplify development for manufacturers and increase compatibility for consumers. The project is built around a shared belief that smart home devices should be secure, reliable, and seamless to use. By building upon Internet Protocol (IP), the project aims to enable communication across smart home devices, mobile apps, and cloud services and to define a specific set of IP-based networking technologies for device certification.
