From Consumer to Prosumer: Buildings Enter the All Electric Society
M

How far have standards like, let's say Matter, Thread, KNX, IoT, and BACnet actually progressed in enabling truly interoperable buildings?
B
21:39Borut KastelicGUEST
So I was, I was looking into Matter and Thread and, you know, uh, BACnet, this is building automation communication abbreviation.
B
21:47Borut KastelicGUEST
Um, how far are they? Because I remember them from the past, and I heard many times that not everything is so pink [chuckles] as they would like to say.
B
21:56Borut KastelicGUEST
But I was recently positively surprised about the Matter 1.6 version, which came out now, and I want to share this story with you because it illustrates that they are moving in the correct direction.
B
22:10Borut KastelicGUEST
So in the past, if you had some, let's say, smart bulb, there was a QR code in the back, and you had to scan that QR code to pair that with your gateway, and that it would, uh, be able to work with the, let's say, manager of all the bulbs.
B
22:30Borut KastelicGUEST
They added NFC commissioning, so means that there is much easier to commission devices to your home automation system, let's call it like that.
M
26:57MustafaHOST
Let's look ahead from the immediate collaboration to, you know, what needs to happen over the next decade for homes and buildings to become a fully integrated part of the all electric society.
