We're kicking off the new year by welcoming Chris LaPre, Head of Technology at Connectivity Standards Alliance, back to The Signal. Chris shares his insights on all things Matter over the past year and tells us which devices represent the biggest opportunity for the protocol. We discuss the different device types that will be added to future releases, and how connected devices can create significant energy savings in home and enterprise environments. Chris also tells us that there are 1,300+ Matter certifications over Wi-Fi and expects to see even more this year. Listen to this episode to learn more about Matter and predictions for CES 2024.
