Before there was MATTER, there was Project: Connected Home over IP
The Connected Smart Home is here to stay. Today, 3 of the biggest companies on earth decided to form a partnership called Project Connected Home over IP to help develop a new Smart Home Protocol standard. Based around IP, the new standard would hopefully make the consumer’s experience of connecting Smart Home devices together a frustration free one. Leveraging parts of HomeKit, Nest’s Thread and Amazon Alexa, the new standard would be built with privacy, end to end encryption and ease of use from the start.
This new standard would be royalty-free and open source for all software vendors and hardware manufacturers to use. The goal for a homeowner is to feel confident that any device he/she purchased would work with the major voice assistants and the respective ecosystems. Several major brands have already pledged support.
Having these three heavyweights involved in the project gives it a higher chance of success since the easier Smart Home tech gets, the more it gets adopted and the more these companies become well positioned to profit from it.

👋 About this channel: My name is Carlo. I've been running Home Assistant for a BUNCH of years. Almost from the very beginning actually. This channel is focused on bringing what I have implemented at my own house to you so that you can bring it to your house. The channel will be a mix of reviews, tutorials, and inspiration. It is a companion to my GitHub site that holds all the code for my Smart Home and my main site where I keep the more in-depth technical writings. I hope you will enjoy the videos and consider subscribing.
