ZOI
Almost 3 years ago, DSR announced the launch of the ZBOSS Open Initiative, a first of its kind community of companies working on a common Zigbee® PRO software platform, ZBOSS, with a goal to overcome, together, the challenges around interoperability, security, testing, and optimization of Zigbee®-enabled products and solutions. ZOI’s members include silicon chip vendors, consumer product companies and system integrators. To learn more about ZOI, visit https://dsr-zoi.com.
One of the main challenges currently facing the IoT market is to achieve interoperability across the vast ecosystem of smart devices and manufacturers. The key solution to this problem is a shared software platform, utilized and maintained by chipset vendors and consumer product companies, in a collaborative environment. ZOI provides the best on the market Zigbee stack to its members and sharing the development efforts between multiple companies creates a more robust product that benefits all participants and their customers, along with users who utilize the products built on ZOI. Members can prioritize new features and provide the code for the implementation. These features are implemented swiftly by making pull requests, thus benefiting their customers.
Multiple silicon vendors are already supporting this initiative, and it continues to expand. It utilizes modern ways of working with Git, Confluence, and other tools to create a current code base that gives developers a huge benefit as they can fix things and collaborate faster, significantly reducing the product development lifecycle. Join ZOI to gain access to ZBOSS r23 and Zigbee Direct and greatly reduce issues of interoperability, simplify development for manufacturers, and lower your R&D costs.
