Description
Growing up, one of my favorite shows was the Jetsons. Now to be clear, while the antics of George, Jane, Judy, and his boy Elroy did make me laugh, it was really the gadgets that got me hooked on the show. Okay. Yeah. I was a nerd from way back. Their lives were filled with technology, but how much did the show get right about future home life? Well, let's see. They had flying cars that turned into suitcases, a maid-shaped robot named Rosie, and more home automation gadgets than we could name. Well, today we don't have Rosie, but we do have a short circular disc named Roomba vacuuming our floors for us. Prototype robots are folding and putting clothes away. 3D printers are making estates, and we can accomplish a lot just by speaking out loud to Siri or Alexa, and the list goes on. Now, the problem with all this in today's world is that it takes feats of technological gymnastics to get Siri to talk to my Ring Doorbell camera, or to get Alexa to control my Nest thermostat. They simply don't speak the same language, and as much as the hacker in me enjoyed putting the pieces together, this situation may all be coming to an end soon with the release of the Matter specification. On this episode of The Tech Between Us, we are joined by guest Chris LaPré, Chief Technical Officer at the Connectivity Standards Alliance, to talk about this one protocol to unite them all.
