What is Thread? Low-power IoT Networking for Smart Home Devices | Digi-Key Electronics

[@AdityaMehendale]

Thank you for not editing-out the unplug-and-reconnect cycle. It is unbelievable how many new hobbyists get gaslighted into thinking they are doing sth incorrectly when they have to try several time to power-cycle the hardware.

Couldn't they have come up with a unique name so I can use it in google searches without seeing a million hits about threaded programming?

[@ShawnHymel]

I concur...it's not a great name for SEO.

As always great tutorial. Sometime in the future you should cover energy harvesting, fully wireless (and batteryless) IoT sensors are relatively new, but also quite interesting.

[@qcnck2776]

Thanks for this nice and clear video. I have been unsure about which is which ..... Thread vs Matter.

[@gerhardspitzlsperger1567]

Thanks for the interesting tutorial. Did similar stuff with Nordic nrf5340 works great too.

[@flaviunistor2927]

Great tutorial. Thanks for the time invested in this video and I definitely wait for the future video about matter

[@alzalame]

Nice tutorial , thank you very much .

[@hughbreivik4653]

Really good learning video. Just wonder if you can expand on the “Raspberry Pi & the thread to usb adapter” in respect to possibilities of Apple tv HomeKit eco system via Homebridge & plugins. Any pointers greatly appreciated…

Could SparkFun Thing Plus Matter Board be a FTD insted of being MTD like in this tutorial ?

[@ShawnHymel]

Yes, in Simplicity Studio, you can select the following OpenThread examples for the SparkFun Thing Plus Matter board: BLE DMP, CLI (MTD), CLI (FTD), RCP, NCP (MTD), and NCP (FTD).

@@ShawnHymel Thank you very much 👍

What I didn't understand from all this IOT mess is how do you create a smart device yourself. For example I have a specific sensor or device that I want to turn into a smart device. I have a zigbee gateway but creating such a device is not that easy since you need specific hardware.

Why do I get a message that the upload failed, but the log printing is successful，simplicity_commander ok? Sorry you can't upload pictures here！

[@yulongsu1472]

I know the reason. It’s caused by not burning the bootloader here.
