In the Internet of Everything, AllJoyn™ Enables the “Internet of Things Near You”
AllJoyn is an open source project that provides a software framework and set of Services that enable interoperability among connected products and software applications, across manufacturers, to create dynamic proximal networks. By integrating the AllJoyn framework codebase, manufactures can offer interoperable products and services that will engage and delight users in new, exciting and useful ways. The range of consumer products the AllSeen Alliance can enable is only limited by the imaginations of innovative companies – from the mobile devices consumers always have with them, to the appliances and media equipment in their homes, to the electronics in their cars and the office equipment in their workplaces.
