Adam Kos Njengoba kungenzeka ukuthi uqaphele ngesikhathi se-WWDC22 Keynote, i-Apple iveze ukuthi i-iOS 16 yayo izofaka ukusekelwa okugcwele kwezinga le-Matter. Sesivele sine-iOS 16 lapha, kodwa i-Matter akulindelekile ukuthi ifike kuze kube ekwindla noma ekupheleni konyaka. Akulona iphutha lika-Apple, nokho, ngoba izinga ngokwalo lisalungiswa.
Kwakungomhla ziyi-18 kuZibandlela 2019, lapho leli zinga limenyezelwa ngokusemthethweni, futhi eliqhamuke ku-Project Connected Home over IP, noma i-CHIP ngamafuphi. Kodwa uyawugcina umqondo. Kufanele kube indinganiso engenanzuzo yokuxhuma ezishintshayo ekhaya. Ngakho ifuna ukunciphisa ukuhlukana phakathi kwabathengisi abahlukene futhi izuze ukusebenzisana phakathi kwamadivayisi ahlakaniphile asekhaya kanye nezinkundla ze-inthanethi Yezinto (IoT) ezivela kubahlinzeki abahlukene nakuzo zonke izinkundla, ngokuyinhloko i-iOS ne-Android. Kalula nje, ihloselwe ukunika amandla ukuxhumana kwamadivayisi ahlakaniphile asekhaya, izinhlelo zokusebenza zeselula nezinsizakalo zamafu, kanye nokuchaza isethi ethile yobuchwepheshe benethiwekhi obusekelwe ku-IP ukuze bathole isitifiketi sedivayisi.
Kungaba njalo okuthakaselayo
Abakhiqizi abakhulu kunawo wonke emhlabeni kanye nendinganiso eyodwa
Ngempela iyimbangi ye-HomeKit, kodwa i-Apple ngokwayo ingenye yezinkampani eziholayo ezizama ukukhuthaza leli zinga. Lezi zihlanganisa i-Amazon, i-Google, i-Comcast, i-Samsung, kodwa nezinkampani ezifana ne-IKEA, i-Huawei, i-Schneider nezinye ezingu-200. Yilokhu izinga okufanele lidlale kumakhadi, ngoba lizosekelwa kabanzi futhi akuyona iphrojekthi yeqembu elithile elincane lezinkampani ezingaziwa, kodwa ama-giants amakhulu kwezobuchwepheshe ahilelekile kuwo. Usuku lokuqala lokwethulwa kwalo lonke uhlelo lwaluhlelelwe u-2022, ngakho-ke kusenethemba lokuthi luzokwenziwa kulo nyaka.
Uhlelo lokusebenza lwasekhaya oluklanywe kabusha ku-iOS 16
Inombolo yezesekeli zasekhaya ezihlakaniphile ezivela kubakhiqizi abaningi zihlushwa ukuthi kufanele usebenzise ngayinye nesicelo esihlukile esisebenza ngokuhlukile. Imikhiqizo-ke ayikwazi ukuxhumana yodwa, okuphinde kuthinte ukusebenza okuzenzakalelayo kwasekhaya okungaba khona, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi othile usebenzisa ama-iPhone kanye nomunye womndeni wamadivayisi we-Android. Ngakho-ke uncike ekusetshenzisweni kwemikhiqizo evela kumkhiqizi oyedwa, nakuba kungenjalo ngaso sonke isikhathi, njengoba abanye besekela kokubili ukusebenzelana kwabo siqu kanye ne-HomeKit ikakhulukazi. Kodwa akusona isimo. Inguqulo yokuqala yesistimu kufanele isebenzise ngokunengqondo inethiwekhi ye-Wi-Fi ukuxhumana kwayo, kodwa kucatshangelwa lokho okubizwa nge-Thread mesh, okuzosebenza nge-Bluetooth LE.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, njengoba i-Apple izoletha ukwesekwa kwezinga kwiphothifoliyo ebanzi yama-iPhones ku-iOS 16, amanye amadivayisi akhona azofunda i-Matter kuphela ngemva kokubuyekeza i-firmware yawo. Ngokuvamile amadivayisi asevele esebenza ne-Thread, i-Z-Wave noma i-Zigbee azoqonda ukuthi i-Matter. Kodwa uma njengamanje ukhetha imishini ehlakaniphile yekhaya lakho, kufanele uthole ukuthi izohambisana yini ne-Matter. Kuyadingeka futhi ukunaka iqiniso lokuthi kusazodingeka ukusebenzisa isisetshenziswa esisebenza njengesikhungo sekhaya, okungukuthi i-Apple TV noma i-HomePod.
