Interoperability Through Standards

WotThings is built on the W3C WoT Architecture and Thing Description standards

📡

Thing Descriptions

Structured JSON-LD documents describing a Thing's properties, actions, and events — standardized by W3C for universal IoT interoperability.

📋

Thing Models

Reusable templates that define common capabilities across device categories. Build once, instantiate many — reducing duplication in IoT deployments.

🔗

Linked Data

Every Thing Description is a JSON-LD document with semantic annotations. Things can reference each other, forming a web of connected devices.

🔐

Security Metadata

TDs include security definitions (OAuth2, API Key, Basic) so consumers know exactly how to authenticate before connecting to a Thing.

🌐

Protocol Binding

Each interaction (property, action, event) declares its protocol binding via forms — HTTP, MQTT, CoAP, Modbus, or any protocol.

🔍

Discoverable

The WoT Directory serves as a searchable registry. Find Things by type, category, or capability — enabling truly dynamic IoT orchestration.
