Sundar Pichai described it as an "end-to-end complete solution."

Google's Brillo answer is meant to make a more complete solution for IoT.

The company partnered with Nest, Android, and others to build out the system. It uses minimum system requirements, making it easy for small devices like door locks connect to the system. Additionally, it uses both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth low energy.

Brillo will use a new language called "Weave." This common language is meant for connected devices to more seamlessly communicate with each other.
