Matter: Design, Architecture and Protocol

Oct. 30, 2024

Matter is an IoT protocol to rule them all. It actually does nothing by itself but rather works in conjunction with other IoT protocols and links multiple subnets together at a higher level than the underlying protocols.

The articles and other content in this TechXchange examine the architecture and Matter protocol. The Build with Matter Handbook and Matter Specifications are good resources when considering the use of Matter and related protocols.

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
