Matter allows devices from different manufacturers and different protocols to work with each other. It supports various technologies including Wi-Fi and Thread.
In the first phase, the standard supports light bulbs, switches, sockets, blinds, curtains, door locks, security sensors, and televisions. Future versions will support other devices.
