Ryder EMS receives Apple MFi 6.4 license for design & manufacturing
Ryder Industries has announced that it has recently received Apple’s MFi 6.4 license for design and manufacturing. This new license is a further endorsement of Ryder by the world’s most valuable company and means that Ryder is ready to bring the very latest smart devices to market, with its usual quality, speed and service.
With the MFi 6.4 manufacturing license, Ryder is now able to use Apple logos in product packaging, design and manufacture products for the iPhone, iPad and iPod lines, purchase parts and accessories from Apple agents and access full technical support from Apple, including product design and development, product certification testing and manufacturing.
What makes the MFi 6.4 license special is its updated HomeKit function. HomeKit is a framework for communicating with and controlling connected home automation accessories that support Apple's HomeKit Accessory Protocol. HomeKit apps enable users to discover compatible accessories and configure them. Users can also create actions to control accessories (such as a thermostats or lighting), group them together and trigger them by using Siri. HomeKit supports remote access to accessories, multiple user devices, and multiple users. HomeKit also ensures users’ security and privacy.
Ryder will be able to build products that support HomeKit and iOS 8's new framework for smart devices within the home, and has just signed their first customer in this space.
