Matter: Making the smart home a more connected, comfortable, and helpful place.

Smart bulbs and automated blinds can bring value to every home, but to do that, these products need to be as easy to buy and set up as regular bulbs and blinds. They need to be easy enough to just discover in the regular aisles like every other product, easy enough to buy without needing an expert or being one.
Matter changes the game -- by making devices easier to set up, in the same way, every time, and work with other smart products in the home. Matter-enabled devices are secure by nature and provide the reliability and features expected while doing so much more. They can be controlled by whichever app, voice assistant, or device is the most convenient, and by anyone in the home.
Matter also lets developers build literally, once, and for all. It’s a common language for today’s smart devices that lets them talk to each other, enabling simple, yet powerful experiences for consumers. Matter is also local, so home devices can be controlled securely, without the need for a cloud connection.
For anyone who wants a smart device that just works, for anyone with the next great idea to easily launch a global product. Matter is for all of us, for all brands and platforms, all over the world.
That’s what matters.

[@BrianHurn]

Matter is awesome, but the most impressive part of this video is that it was shot in a single take.

[@Kolma]

Things like this matter in making a video look good.

[@LukeVesty]

Literally what I came in here to post. Credit to the presenter and camera operator for pulling this one off!

[@jeffmikers715]

lol. That's what I also came here to comment on. Idda borked the script in about 15 seconds.

[@CLyons6]

I thought the same exact thing. Masterfully done.

[@DaBruzzla]

Yeah. Super impressive. I wonder how many takes it took to capture this flawless long take in the end.

[@blakewillard7922]

Someone give this presenter a raise, an award, and a bottle of water! 👏👏👏

[@dedragun]

6+ minute shot and she didn't mess up once!! What a pro!

[@FTLNewsFeed]

That's because you're seeing the 25th take.

[@dedragun]

@@FTLNewsFeed could be her 50th take, still impressed

[@mnstrz0]

2:05 ADR of the word "Home" otherwise flawless imo.

[@199724]

You were there? She really did this performance in 1 take? Thanks for sharing this background trivia. That's nice to hear in a society governed by 'incompetence and stupidity' these days.

[@auad]

@@199724 have a drink, Robbert, or stop drinking. This is about tech, go cry government problems in another video.

[@rtm135]

If Thread & Matter work as well as the presenter of this video (6 min straight!) then the future of the smart home is bright.

[@JeremyIrving1]

Give this woman as Oscar

[@Max86421]

Matter 1.2 gets even better 💯

[@gcbeegle]

This is so needed! They covered most of the dysfunctional ecosystem pain points. I don’t care that I need to replace the older devices. I will only look for matter devices going forward.

[@nateb_inovelli]

Looking forward to Matter bringing the smart home world closer together!

[@GregEva]

This is an evolutionary moment for humanity seeing all of these companies finally coming together to work on such a local open standard. The challenges and barriers of everyone trying to do it on their own has been known for 20 years.... however they all did it anyway (cloud hosted services shut down when companies go bankrupt, latency of all actions, privacy concerns, internet outages, compatibility between products and vendors). I'm very happy to see the worlds connected products companies coming together to try to make these recurring issues become a part of history. 😁

[@Max86421]

🤔Nice! Setting up smart home devices should be easy 💯

[@IdelfonsoGutierrez]

props to the speaker for a 6 minute long presentation and be able to breath 👏👏

[@nirajs]

Definitely a slick (single take!) video, but feels a bit information dense for general consumers, and with an odd lack of actually showing the mentioned product setup simplifications and ease of control across a range of devices in action. This is a _huge_ positive shift in the industry, and it would be far more compelling to show rather than tell for it to click for the less technically inclined, IMHO...just my 2 cents!

[@rtm135]

I believe the audience for this presentation are the builders not the consumers.

[@nirajs]

@@rtm135 I guess it felt like it was not technical enough for developers that will use Matter, and talked too much about development despite the first couple of minutes being focused on the general consumer shopping and home experiences (consumption-side). The whole thing felt a bit muddled in messaging when each audience would benefit from something more focused to them. But maybe this was supposed to just be a general high-level overview covering both 🤷‍♂️

[@Soldiershak]

@@nirajs it's not perfect basically

[@duckiedx]

this woman is so captivating, cannot wait for matter to come.

[@fatguy9]

I have high hopes for Matter, once smart devices are easier to manage a lot of people will buy into it, Getting up to turn on or off a light will be equivalent to people having to walk to their TV to change the channel 50 years ago

[@soderberg8932]

Me: please don't do it. Woman at the end: "And that's ... what matters"

[@the_peppe]

Finally just one standard to rule them all😍🤣

[@mathesonstep]

This is awesome, as a Home Assistant user myself I am extremely excited

[@fasttwitchmedia149]

Was this done in one take? Amazing.

[@rtm135]

My Nanoleaf Matter Over Thread bulbs arrive this week. Let's see if the future delivers.

[@powerinnumbers6159]

She said not to worry about your old devices - however, my Nanoleaf bulbs are getting a new Matter version and the ones I have are not upgradeable .

[@eliz_kilic]

Matter is cool and all, but the acting is really good. 6m clip with 1 shot? 😮

[@RobertBardwell]

They nailed it on their 47th take.

[@joeycastagnaro]

Same girl from the iTrustCapital videos I think! A star! Really impressive.

[@advance512]

With a presentor like that, I am immedistely sold. Talented *and* hot. This tech has a future!

[@mancavemusician]

A brilliant one shot video that doesn't show you how to use Matter on an actual device.

[@SeanOBrien27]

Loving the way smart home is going to change with Matter.... Smart home will be the new normal home 😍

[@johnmcclung4736]

Glad I gave up wading through the tech mess smart home objects have been up until now. Sure hope Matter is everything they promise it will be!

[@marcradermacher6244]

Impressive presentation, but the most interesting part is what happens to legacy devices. And for some strange reason I wasn't able to find any information about those cheap Tuya devices and if they will be updated to Matter. Would be great if those cheap devices could work without their rather unstable servers. No matter what happens to the old stuff, at least the future will be a lot easier to configure. And that's great in it's own right. ;)

Now I don't have to look at something Amazon and Google make and think I want one but I then have to set up a new connection hub as well. Now I just pick both and they work

[@smartrev]

Let´s see if it matters

[@CharlieBone007]

finally ;)

[@SolarizeYourLife]

Ok matter is great, but you kind of failed to mention that you need a hub that is capable of using if the Internet goes down... For example Google hubs and Alexa do not work with no Internet...

[@andrewkelley7062]

Yes! Companies like this will explode right now. Human interface platforms that are universal. Mostly a first come market. Also, all on the higher market. Sort of a places in-between space. like a company that sells the designs the best form of screws kind of thing. There need to be long term patent designs to ensure viability with competitors.

Google not good tbh. Alexa is a market leader in AI

[@fredarmstrong6418]

@@resrudeboy This currently correct - however there is hope for Google in the coming months. They have promised new features in their upcoming redesign of the Home app that makes a compelling argument. Currently it's vaporware, but there is reason to be optimistic. However, to answer your original question, I recommend that you purchase at least one device (like a Nest Hub 2nd Gen) that is Thread enabled and can act as a border router. it will make future purchases easier, knowing that your network can support Thread devices.

[@RACAPE]

@@resrudeboy Alexa can’t save a song from Spotify or Apple Music into my playlist. I have premium subscription for both of this music services. That’s not a “leader in AI” in my opinion. I don’t care if it’s Amazon fault or not, but me as a consumer I don’t care. I just switched to Apple HomePod

Right? All I in the comments is everybody glazing this lady up. What is matter is it just a protocol? And there's literally thousands of third party Bluetooth Wi-Fi product companies. Does it work with them right now or do they have to be assigned this protocol

[@helenblakemore5079]

Software and patent infringement

[@mikeguest6307]

Shouldn't be an issue. It's an open source development based on earlier open source solutions such as ZigBee and thread. Nobody is making significant money from the protocol itself. The value comes from the expanding market of people now able to make use of technology that was too complex for them previously. Has it got a matter logo? Then it works with every other system that has a matter logo.

[@helenblakemore5079]

@@mikeguest6307 oh yes they are making billions of illegal cash steeling the pairing software and adding it to 100s of devices across the board, illegal sales and unlicensed advertising.
