MediaTek Announces Two Software Development Kits for Apple HomeKit

MeidaTek has released two software development kits (DSks) that will support Apple HomeKit. Apple HomeKit is a framework built into iOS that enables secure home control from iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or Apple Watch and lets home accessories work together in smart ways.

SR Tsai, General Manager of MediaTek’s Wireless Connectivity and Networking Business Unit, said:

“By adding HomeKit support, MediaTek takes another step in our mission to connect the world’s next billion people. Customers have been looking for innovative, simple and secure technologies that power their home and our new SDKs with HomeKit support delivers that to them.”

MediaTek’s new SDKs also support two SoCs, the MT7688 and MT7687. The MT7688, for smart appliances runs on Linux and powers higher performance, more complex use cases, such as wireless speakers and webcams. The MT7687 is a low-power WiFi SoC, which enables any home appliance from garage doors, power switch to thermostats, and runs on the FreeRTOS operating system. This means all such appliances and uses can now be securely controlled from an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch using the MediaTek SoCs.
