Design Problems Engineers Face

Mesh nodes need low-power capabilities as well as extended range

Battery-powered applications, such as sensors and door locks, need ultra-low-power mesh node operation
Depending on the application, mesh nodes may be far away from neighboring nodes

Bluetooth hardware design is complex with high certification costs

Low volumes along with lack of RF experience make chip-on-board designs difficult
Regulatory certification of Bluetooth designs are costly and very time consuming

Proper implementation of mesh requires extensive resources for software,

firmware, and mobile development

Standard Bluetooth Mesh implementation is needed for interoperability
Mobile applications are a must for configuration and management of mesh nodes
