Multi-Protocol Smart Home Devices

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

THIRDREALITY Has Outlined Its Forthcoming Product Strategy

— December 31, 2025 — Tech
THIRDREALITY is taking the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas as an opportunity to emphasize a multi-protocol approach for its smart home devices. This product strategy selects either Zigbee or Matter connectivity based on specific functional requirements like power efficiency or ecosystem integration. The application-specific deployment of these open standards will help optimize device performance.

THIRDREALITY demonstrates its multi-protocol approach through a new sensor series that utilizes millimeter-wave radar for precise presence detection and a line of interactive fixtures that operate on the Matter framework to ensure cross-platform compatibility. The first category — the "Smart Sensing Devices Built on Zigbee" — includes the Smart Soil Sensor Gen 2, the Smart Presence Sensor R2, and the Smart Presence Sensor R3. The second category — the "Smart Lighting & Interaction Devices Based on Matter" — boasts Smart Presence Night Light Gen 2 with Clock, Smart Garage Door Opener, and Smart Water Leak Sensor KM1.
