Tyco Joins With Nest To Build Out Smart Home Portfolio

Tyco is working with Nest Labs to develop “useful integrations” between Nest products and Tyco’s “expanding smart home product portfolio,” it said Thursday. Tyco has “multiple projects” under development and Nest’s Weave communication protocol will connect “disparate devices in the home,” said Tyco. Tyco’s participation in the Works with Nest program reflects the company’s commitment to the home automation market, it said. Tyco provides security products and interactive services in more than 5 million homes worldwide, it said.
