New Logo for dotdot by Wolff Olins
Established in 2002 the zigbee alliance is a global membership organization that works to create and develop universal open standards for smart objects or, in popular parlance, the Internet of Things (IoT). The alliance has developed the ZigBee protocol used to create small personal area networks that allow objects to communicate with each other instead of using the more energy- and resource-consuming Bluetooth or Wi-Fi and they’ve applied it to a wide range of products. Their latest effort is dotdot, a universal, open source language of the Internet of Things so that smart objects from different brands can work together using the same protocols instead of building walled ecosystems that limit possibilities. In other words, dotdot aims to be as ubiquitous as the USB or Bluetooth icon
