Mesh networking is blue
Bluetooth mesh enables the creation of large-scale device networks. It is ideally suited for control, monitoring, and automation systems where hundreds, or thousands of devices need to communicate with one another. Bluetooth mesh was designed from the beginning to meet the strict requirements of commercial and industrial environments where performance, reliability, and security are of the utmost importance. Advanced commercial lighting control is one use case that has rapidly embraced Bluetooth mesh.
