With the Internet of Things (IoT), you can no longer ignore the energy-efficient Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). This is used to address all possible IoT devices from your mobile phone or tablet (with any operating system). From your smartwatch and smart lamp to medical technology and intelligent toys. In addition, BLE is used for small transmitters (beacons) for, for example, targeted advertising on mobile devices.
With connected lightning, Bluetooth Mesh can perfectly show its greatest advantage: the transmission technology can be used in parallel. In practice, this means that connected Bluetooth lamps can be installed that also support the Bluetooth transmission technology for the use of beacons.
Jurgen van der Kolk from Helvar gives a lecture in which he explains how the Bluetooth Low Energy mesh originated from the well-known BLE technology that has been available for many years. Not only does he discuss why you should choose a mesh network, but also where it is well applicable. Of course, he also discusses the advantages and disadvantages.
