2019: Start of an initiative
In the middle of December, 2019 Amazon, Apple and Google together with Zigbee Alliance group announced the joint initiative which received the name Connected Home over IP which will be directed to development of the general networking standard for devices of the smart house. The purpose consists in providing to buyers more wide choice, to simplify development of devices for equipment manufacturers and also to increase compatibility of devices among themselves, with mobile applications, cloud services and Siri voice assistants, Alexa and Google Assisstant.
Earlier intelligent devices of production of Apple, Google and Amazon used different standards of connection therefore consumers were limited to purchase only of those household devices which were compatible to the voice assistant interface set in the house.
Connected Home over IP should solve this problem. If the project achieves the goal, producers will have an opportunity to use the uniform networking standard compatible to all leading intelligent systems and also with any other voice services.
The Connected Home over IP standard will use the existing protocols, including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy. Besides, in the project the technologies developed by Amazon, Apple and Google such as protocol of communication of Weave devices will be used. The working group will create the standard open source for development and deployment of the new unified protocol of communication.
For a start the working group will be engaged in those devices for the smart house which are connected with security, for example, smoke detectors, sockets and smart locks. It is expected that the original project of the standard will be submitted at the end of 2020, but it is still unknown when in the market there are first unified devices.[1]
