PARIS, Jan. 04, 2017 – 

At CES 2017, the Zigbee Alliance will demonstrate dotdot as a universal language for the IoT, making it possible for smart objects to work together on any network. Members of the zigbee alliance and Thread Group will also showcase the first demonstrations of dotdot devices running over Thread's IP-based networks.

"Dotdot represents the next chapter in the Zigbee Alliance's continued commitment to create and evolve open standards for the smart networks in our homes, businesses and neighborhoods," said Tobin Richardson, Zigbee Alliance president and CEO, in a statement.

"The application layer that is the core language of zigbee devices has driven significant growth in the IoT," Richardson said. "Recognizing the opportunity to multiply that growth for members and the industry, market leaders within the alliance have come together to transform it into a universal language for the IoT, making it available to everyone, everywhere, across their network of choice."
