What Is Thread? | The Future of HomeKit Smart Homes

[@thibDave]

Great breakdown of the thread protocol, and love the thread animations; they were perfect. 👍🏼

[@Polkster13]

Eve Energy - 4th generation, Eve Weather - 2nd generation, Eve Door & Window - 3rd generation, Eve Aqua - 2nd generation are all available in the U.S., works with HomeKit, and support Thread.

Can’t believe I haven’t heard of thread till now. I love your channel!

[@Lifeisbeautifulngrand]

Thanks so much for the explanation, it helped me a great deal!

[@moniquem783]

Thank you! So well explained!

[@dkodko11]

Yes, no more hubs. And I wish more smart products are Apple HomeKit compatible.

[@bradlloyd1744]

Very nice explanation. Good animations as well!

[@regularnerd]

Thanks! I’ve been enjoying your videos too!

2:05 You mentioned it’s separate from our home Wi-Fi. Does thread require Wi-Fi to work or is it it’s own technology. If so, lights can operate if my internet is down?

[@SundayBoy72]

Thanks for sharing

[@MrAlimuhd]

Lovely presentation.

[@emmgeevideo]

Great explanation. I would like to comment about "device limit" for Wi-Fi. While that's theoretically true, it's not practically true. The data going back and forth between IOT devices is so small that you just wouldn’t' stress a home Wi-Fi network with those devices.

[@tomshyrus7965]

Good explanation.. thanks for that.. What is the difference between thread and matter? And why they mentioned as matter works over wifi and thread? As u said all thread appliances are not homekit devices. But all appliances built with matter are homekit devices rite?

[@regularnerd]

Thread is a component of matter. It’s a communication protocol that will be part of matter along with wifi and Bluetooth. All matter devices should work with HomeKit. That is why they are making a standard, to unify everything. But I don’t think everything is known yet with how it will all work.

Great channel!🙌🏾

[@johncaron5515]

Great presentation. Concise.

[@MorbidGod391]

Random question. Could, in theory, Thread be used to give information to smart devices? Say you have a smart floor that senses water and it tells a smart robot mop/vacuum to come and clean it up?

[@feda007]

scenes?

[@MrKevosmin]

@@feda007 no, I think they mean a routine or automation. It’s like “if this happens, make this, do this” type of thing

[@gucciguilty5848]

3:41 really? They have thread lightbulbs? What company makes them

[@regularnerd]

Nanoleaf

[@AriSosnovsky]

What about zigbee and zwave? Can you compare thread to those?

[@b4rtekm]

You're completely missing the big picture which is CHIP...:/ So the future is not purely Thread. It's CHIP-over-Thread (and CHIP-over-WiFi/Ethernet for high-bandwidth applications). you should make a video about that.

I hope Terminator saves John Connor

Poor Audio

[@regularnerd]

Thank you for saying that
