Development Tools for Bluetooth Mesh

Complete solution

For developing your Bluetooth Mesh product

If you are developing a Bluetooth Mesh product it is wise to evaluate what the #1 supplier of Bluetooth Low Energy System-on-Chips (SoCs) offers, as Bluetooth Mesh is built on top of Bluetooth LE.

We offer a broad portfolio of SoCs supporting Bluetooth Mesh. The SoCs have different memory sizes and capabilities, enabling you to select the perfect match for your product's requirements. Complementing our SoCs, we offer development hardware, software, and tools to make it easy for you to build your product, while also reducing time-to-market. We offer a qualified Bluetooth Mesh stack with all mandatory and selected optional features supported, in addition to a wide range of application models and samples for lighting and sensor networks. Use this as a foundation to build on top of. We also offer a mobile app, nRF Mesh, available as free source code for both iOS and Android. This is a great starting point for your own app. The app can be used to provision, configure, and control Mesh nodes in evaluation and test.

We offer our excellent technical support to anyone developing a Bluetooth Mesh product with one of our SoCs. We guide you through the whole product development process.
