    They do have example Matter projects for the ESP32-C3/S3. I assume it's over WiFi and not thread.

    From https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip#architecture... :

    > Matter aims to build a universal IPv6-based communication protocol for smart home devices. The protocol defines the application layer that will be deployed on devices and the different link layers to help maintain interoperability. The following diagram illustrates the normal operational mode of the stack:

    > [...] It is built with market-proven technologies using Internet Protocol (IP) and is compatible with Thread and Wi-Fi network transports.

    > Matter was developed by a Working Group within the Connectivity Standards Alliance (Alliance). This Working Group develops and promotes the adoption of the Matter standard, a royalty-free connectivity standard to increase compatibility among smart home products, with security as a fundamental design tenet. The vision that led major industry players to come together to build Matter is that smart connectivity should be simple, reliable, and interoperable.

    > [...] The code examples show simple interactions, and are supported on multiple transports -- Wi-Fi and Thread -- starting with resource-constrained (i.e., memory, processing) silicon platforms to help ensure Matter’s scalability.

    Is there already a good (security) comparison of e.g. http basic auth, x10, ZigBee, mqtt, matter?

    Bloaty is a nice tool.

    When I worked on Matter a couple years ago, we had the problem that its backend http://www.capstone-engine.org/ did not support Xtensa, and produced some Python tools that could take output from bloaty or similar data from readelf or elftools, and produce several kinds of report.

    My two cents from someone who has dealt with product name changes. Most recently I worked on the Chip repo which is now known as Matter. There are numerous references in the repo to chip despite the name change. See https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip

    Not sure if I'm asking in the right place so I apologise ahead. I'm trying to get one of the example projects from Matter onto my esp32 (ESP-WROOM-32) using espresiff. I am doing this on my raspberry pi btw. The problem I'm having now is that it get's stuck when I'm building (idf.py build command). It's always around 800/1135 and it doesn't go past it. The one where it is currently stuck is: [804/1135] Building C object esp-idf/bt/CMakeFiles/__idf_bt.dir/host/nimble/nimble/nimble/host/src/ble_gatts_lcl.c.obj.

  • Building examples from project-chip/connectedhomeip repository and Matter community of developers
    1 project | /r/MatterProtocol | 17 Feb 2023
    I'm trying to build basic examples (light device for ESP32, Python controller for Raspberry Pi) following the guides on the official repository (https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip). After solving some build errors, I managed to flash the ESP32 and run the controller on the RPi. However, I couldn't manage to commission the ESP32 from the RPi, because I kept getting a weird "mDNS: Timeout" error. Did anyone here have success with it? What am I missing?

    The HomeAssistant wormhole is a deep one, and the learning curve is steep. But it's definitely worth all the pain. I currently have all our lights, doors, blinds, robot vacuum, tv's, and 3d printer integrated with HA. Looks like there's already Wyze device support for HomeAssistant as well if you wanted to start before upgrading your devices, to see how you like it. Also, I don't know much about Wyze devices, but a majority of internet connected smart devices utilize a ESP32 board or similar. You can usually flash them and run open firmware such as WLED. I currently run a few of those boards with DHT22 temp/humidity sensors to get the temp readings you saw. Like I said, the wormhole is deep, the learning curve is steep, but I think it is by far the best option when it comes to smart homes.

    As for home automation, I think you meant home assistant, if not correct me. I found this through a quick search: https://github.com/JoshuaMulliken/ha-wyzeapi. Might be helpful.

    I haven't had much experience with it but you could give https://github.com/JoshuaMulliken/ha-wyzeapi which is an add on for home assistant which allows you to unofficially control / view cameras. Of course if wyze goes offline or your network goes offline this extension won't work as it's cloudbased.

    Gotta love open source, here ya go. Seems like it'll integrate with the cameras and lights, and at least normal doors. If there as an API for it, there's probably and HA integration for it.

    I would recommend checking out a few YouTube videos on how to setup home assistant with a raspberry pi. Once that is setup, you can use the Wyze integration ( https://github.com/JoshuaMulliken/ha-wyzeapi) to setup some native stuff but you will need to install the custom RTSP software (https://support.wyze.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026245231-Wyze-Cam-RTSP) on the camera and set it up with your home assistant.
