IKEA Introduces Matter support for the DIRIGERA Hub
IKEA is taking the next step in creating a better and simpler smart home experience with the introduction of Matter support for the DIRIGERA hub. Starting September 11th, any smart products connected to the DIRIGERA hub will be compatible with smart home platforms that use the Matter standard.
Matter is the smart home industry’s new standard that allows smart products to connect and work together seamlessly, no matter which brand they’re from. As the first step in adopting Matter, the DIRIGERA hub will be updated to become a Matter Bridge, enabling it to support any Matter-enabled system. This update will allow all IKEA smart products based on Zigbee – the protocol powering IKEA’s smart products since 2012 – to communicate with other Matter-supported devices and platforms, further enhancing the convenience and accessibility of the smart home experience.
IKEA products within lighting, sound, air purification, remote controllers, and sensors will be supported by the new Matter protocol, ensuring that users can create a connected home that meets their unique needs and preferences.
