On the surface this "appears" very similar.
EDIT: Yes I'm aware the software layer is different, I was inferring the radios are the same.
- oflannabhra 7y agoThis is incorrect. Openthread uses nothing from Zigbee, but does use 802.15.4 radios, the same as Zigbee does.
- supergeek133 7y agoOK, let me be more specific since that is what I was inferring. Yes the software layer is different.
- oflannabhra 7y agoright, but Zigbee just uses a generic 2.4GHz radio. There is nothing about the radio that "involves Zigbee". Some silicon vendors sell 2.4GHz radios that can run a BLE, Zigbee, or Thread networking stack.
