Why Matter will finally matter
I have a home security system and an outdoor security camera, but they don’t talk to each other, nor do they support the same platforms, either Google Home or Amazon Alexa or Apple HomeKit, or whatever.

“We have a saying at Google,” Turner told me. “If it’s not as fast and reliable as a light switch, why are you doing it?”Matter is a new interoperability standard between smart home devicesMatter launched Oct. 4, 2022We anticipate seeing a wave of product updates in early November. That’s a breath of fresh air, and frankly unheard of in the tech industry, where standards wars have been waged since the golden days: FireWire vs. USB, CompactFlash vs. MemoryCard, Blu-Ray vs. HD-DVD, and on and on.

“Zigbee defined the language and the radio. We split them,” he told TechRadar. “That was a sea change for the organization.”So what does it all mean? Here's the nut of it: Whereas a Zigbee device once had a Zigbee radio communicating using Zigbee standards, going forward a Matter device will “speak” Matter and use whatever protocol it wants to communicate. That will involve Bluetooth Low Energy for initial pairing, which happens more quickly thanks to some recent tweaks to that spec.
