Automated Home’s Take

Is. This. Finally. The. One?

Who knows, there have been so many false starts before with a number of that looked promising. however there are some significant names right here as well as more significantly powerful rivals coming together to working on the problem. The truth that the house automation market is admitting it has an problem as well as these huge players are coming together has to be a great sign.

It will be a while before we understand exactly how enthusiastic each celebration is though, as a draft specification as well as a “preliminary recommendation open source implementation” won’t be right here up until late 2020. That very first spec will include…

The goal of the very first specification release will be Wi-Fi, as much as as well as including 802.11ax (aka Wi-Fi 6), that is 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax; thread over 802.15.4-2006 at 2.4 GHz; as well as IP implementations for Bluetooth low Energy, versions 4.1, 4.2, as well as 5.0 for the network as well as physical wireless protocols.

So, has ZigBee just ended up being the selected one? What does this mean for Z-Wave?  What about other business outside the group that are establishing wise tech? What about backwards compatibility with all our tradition systems?

More concerns than answers at this point. So is this job X that I composed about 12 years ago? I’m a tech optimist at heart so I truly do hope so.
