The Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) today announced Matter 1.6 and Product Security 1.1, introducing several improvements to new smart home setup tools, better multi-ecosystem device sharing, and more. Here are the details.
Today marks the second day of Unify, the CSA’s annual public event, where companies across the IoT industry “spotlight the power and potential of open standards” in the field.
While one significant announcement this year is the addition of ADT and Telink to the CSA’s Board of Directors, the biggest news for consumers and device makers is the launch of Matter 1.6 and Product Security 1.1.
What’s new with Matter 1.6
According to the CSA, Matter 1.6 is a focused feature release, which “enhances how devices interact across ecosystems, improves their ability to adapt to user preferences, and provides a deeper understanding of device status.”
