more of their resources on innovating the user experience of their devices.
Semiconductor companies, such as NXP, are also easing the developer’s experience with Matter-certifi ed components and solutions. NXP provides a portfolio of Matter-certifi ed development platforms that integrate hardware and software to address the range of Matter devices from sensors to gateways, Thread Border Routers and Matter controllers.
How Matter develops in commercial building settings
Although Matter is targeted for the home
environment, it might also be applied in a commercial building setting over time. Commercial building environments have many similarities to the smart home (access control, lighting, sensors, etc.), as well as some unique requirements such as large- scale installation. Developers in the building automation industry are seeing the potential that Matter brings. As an industry-wide effort, created and advanced under the CSA umbrella by hundreds of member companies, the possibilities with Matter to address new use cases – new markets, new device types, new features – are endless.
A foundation of compatibility Matter started with a common goal to drive significant innovation and growth in the market by creating compatibility at the foundation of smart home connectivity. Since being announced, the Matter Working Group within the CSA has grown to about 280 companies and continues to grow. At CES 2023 on 5th January 2023, in Las Vegas, Nevada, the CSA communicated that since Matter 1.0 launched in October 2022, there were 550 Matter-certified products and platforms with another 150+ in the pipeline to be certified. These certifications include devices and apps already in the market today through over-the-air firmware updates. Also, major brands in the smart home ecosystem have announced their support for Matter. For example, Google’s iOS and Android apps, Amazon’s FireOS, Apple’s HomePod Mini, AppleTV and iOS apps, and Samsung SmartThings’s SmartThing app. That means millions of devices in homes today will support Matter in the coming months.
It’s an open standard Matter was launched with a specifi cation, open-source software implementation, and
a certification program. Any company can use and contribute to the evolution of Matter after joining the CSA and its Matter Working Group. The Matter 1.0 specification is available publicly at csa-iot. org/all-solutions/matter, the open-source software is available via a public GitHub repo and is supported by a community of developers, and the certification program and tools are accessible by members of the CSA. Matter is an industry-standard, developed and supported under the structure and processes of the CSA that enable collaboration and consensus.
What does Matter mean for the IoT industry?
The market reports for the Internet of Things device markets have varying forecasts, but all predict significant growth. Matter’s success will create a broad path for the development and deployment of more device types, more markets and more innovation. Matter will provide a foundation of compatible and secure connectivity from which richer user experiences can be built.
