Why have you chosen to use Bluetooth mesh technology?
Bluetooth mesh redefines what's possible in wireless lighting control. It is the first low-power communication standard that solves the three pain points of connected lighting systems: reliability, scalability, and simplicity. Wireless lighting control is an extremely challenging environment for radio technologies. More complex installations include hundreds or even thousands of nodes. Energy-efficient lighting control strategies require a constant exchange of data between luminaires and occupancy light sensors. As a result, we are facing significant network traffic that must be handled by a low-throughput technology. At the same time, there is a need for instant responsiveness and fully synchronous operation - because this is how traditional wired systems have always worked. Bluetooth mesh has a long list of unique features that allow us to meet these requirements. The most important ones include high data rate, small packet size, information-centric architecture, and concurrent multicast. On the end-user side, having Bluetooth radio in all smartphones is a huge advantage. You don't need a gateway or any other hardware to set up or manage such a network. Everything you need is already in your pocket.
