Industry’s most comprehensive smart home solutions

For smart home product manufacturers, these highly integrated solutions dramatically streamline product creation, enabling up to 50% faster time-to-market. And for consumers, these solutions pave the way for secure, easy-to-use consumer products that are simple to setup, control and enjoy.

NXP offers development and evaluation solutions for lighting, smart home end nodes, evaluation kits and production ready modules. These solutions combine:

• End-to-end security to protect consumer’s assets and privacy from the node to the gateway to the cloud;
• NFC commissioning to provide secure 'tap and connect' communications between smart devices to the home network;
• Best-in-class algorithms for voice activation and context sensing features. These algorithms work with most third-party speech recognition software partners and feature low power MPUs to enable devices to stay active when in sensing mode to extend battery life;
• ARM-based i.MX applications processors for gateways, featuring complete software and hardware and supported tools; and
• Agnostic approach to wireless technology, enabling optimal connectivity and interoperability across standards such as Thread, ZigBee 3.0, BLE and BLE Mesh.

Olivier Harquin, General Manager, Smart Home Solutions, NXP, commented: “Today, service providers make it easily accessible for consumers to create their own smart home, but the complexity often comes with the initial setup of devices which are as diverse as the standards in which they operate. NXP provides a complete solution that embeds all of the key elements to enable secure seamless, convenient consumer experiences that people demand.”
