leave is the communications layer by
which the Internet of Things can
actually talk to each other you need a
common language a shared understanding
so that devices can not only talk to
each other and to the cloud and to your
phone so what we are doing is we have
standardized schemas schemas are nothing
but a semantic blueprint for all these
devices to have a common language for
example a camera can define what does it
mean to say take a picture and all
devices around it can understand that a
door law can define lock and unlock as
two phrases which all other devices in
that ecosystem can understand and work
off each other so we will have
standardized schemas developers can
submit custom schemas and we will have a
weave certification program to make sure
anything that is leave certified and
work together V is available
cross-platform so you can use this is a
modular approach you can have brillo and
weave together or you can run beam on
top of your existing stack and wait the
powerful thing is leave exposes
developer API is in a cross-platform way
so if you're writing a recipe
application on your smartphone the
actual application can now turn on your
Smart Oven set it to the right
temperature right and any connected
device your oven can be voice enabled
easily because we provide voice api is
