The future of smart home technology is evolving at an unprecedented pace, and Samsung is at the forefront of this revolution with its active leadership in the ground-breaking Matter standard. Designed to enhance interoperability and simplify the integration of smart devices, Matter is set to reshape the way we interact with our homes.
How Matter works
Today there are about five billion ZigBee devices available in the market. Even though people have adopted ZigBee well, the number of markets in which the products are spreading are still low. The Wi-Fi-based devices have overtaken the market.
ZigBee has well-defined ZCL cluster libraries. Standard data formats can be imagined as data structures. For example, whenever you want a government passport, you have various ways to provide your data to the government. If we leave it to people's imagination of an open format letter, we will have zillions of variations in the letter written with the needed data, and you can imagine the delays and ping-pong.
The best way adopted in all public offices is to have a form (or format), which is a template to provide the information STOP in a well-structured format to maintain a common standard to exchange data with government for automation.
Similarly, Matter allows a device vendor to write everything in a particular format, which allows other devices to talk to that device or a cloud platform to provide additional services. Imagine a security system telling a light bulb, as per Matter specifications, to turn on when it detects motion, so that camera can capture the intruder's picture. Here all the devices such as motion sensor, bulb, and camera could be from different vendors, but they talk to each other observing the Matter standard.

"MILES TO GO Before I Sleep"
A teacher illuminates the path to success through the light of knowledge, yet some teachers extend that light to society through their contributions and research. Known as the architect of the modern M3 electronic voting machine (EVM) and the voter verifiable paper audit trail (VVPAT) that transformed India's democratic process, Prof. (Dr) Rajat Moona's journey began in the modest town of Bareilly. Here is his story, as recounted to and written by EFY's Yashasvini Razdan.
