“Is there a way to simply use one App to control all of the smart devices in my home? I don’t want to have just one brand or download different apps to control multiple devices.” Up until now, this has been the common plight of many smart home users, constantly struggling with the inability to interconnect devices from different brands and ecosystems, across different protocols.
Tuya Smart (hereinafter called Tuya) (NYSE: TUYA, HKEX: 2391), a global IoT development platform service provider, has been expanding its commitment to promoting universal open standards that enable IoT products to securely connect and interact.
And this is where Matter comes in. Matter is a communication and application layer connection protocol by the Connectivity Standards Alliance (the Alliance), supported by over 280 companies, including Google, Amazon, Apple, and other early participants like Tuya.
The goal of Matter is to solve the fragmentation problem in the smart home industry by building a unified ‘language’ to eliminate the compatibility issues between different product ecosystems. Thus, it is also Tuya’s mission to have users enjoy a unified and integrated application without worrying about the interaction between varying communication protocols across different devices.
On August 25th, Tuya officially launched its latest product solutions that will support Matter, which will enable global customers to become part of the first group to leverage the Matter protocols and help them to seize business opportunities in the smart home industry.
