Do you know the two technologies that help the Internet of Things during the COVID-19 pandemic? [Copy link]

As the COVID-19 pandemic has forced more people to work from home, the role of the Internet of Things has become increasingly important. However, the Internet of Things is provided through competing networking standards such as Zigbee, BLE, Thread, Apple Homekit, Samsung's Smart Things and Google's Nest, which represent different ecosystems. This fragmentation has prevented the Internet of Things from realizing its potential. Consumers are waiting for a unified "concept".

Now, good news has come. The CHIP (Connected Home over the Internet Protocol) protocol can solve the above problems.

With the arrival of Wi-Fi 6, terminal devices will always be within the range of Wi-Fi networking.

The CHIP protocol and Wi-Fi 6 technologies will help popularize the Internet of Things. Let’s take a look at why these two technologies can promote the popularization of the Internet of Things.

CHIP will enable end devices (the “things” of the Internet of Things) to talk to the “Pods” of the Wi-Fi 6 network, and through those “Pods” to talk to the Internet. Sensor end node data can be placed where it is needed.

As a result, there will be an explosion of CHIP devices connected to Wi-Fi 6. According to consumers, everything in the home will be "Wi-Fi connected", which will be achieved with Wi-Fi 6 Easymesh, and end devices will talk to the WiFi 6 network directly through the Wi-Fi radio (those with keyboards and screens) or through smartphone settings and IEEE 802.15.4 radio.
