Fantastic video Gary as surprising how overlocked Bluetooth Mesh is and the Thingy 53 is a neat little dev board!

Very nicely explain dear ....Thanx💝

Wow Gary im learning so much from your channel Love all types of tech And the film with Dudley Moore with I.O.L was "Arthur 2 On the Rocks" ☺

Excellent short description. Can my iphone be a nnode in a Bluetooth mesh, or does it use a proprietary or special protocol for its airtags, etc?

Thanks for the video! Very cool! Is there any place where we could watch like play list tutorial to learn how to program the BT mesh? which is the smaller and cheaper devide, Thing53 is quite expensive if you want to make a big mesh.

Thanks for the good explanation!

Fascinating thing!

Only loosely related - but another piece of impressive wireless-tech imho is ZigBee. I only got into this home-automation lately after moving to a new location - but you have one central control-center connected to your home-network. And then every device in the "ZigBee-mesh" can act as repeater to extend the reach of the commands... I meanwhile have devices from three different manufacturers working togeather flawlessly... and the coolest thing imho: this wireless-signaling is so energy efficient - I have wall mounted controll-switches, which don't need ANY cable or battery at all. The power I generate when pressing the switch is sufficient to send the command into the ZigBee-mesh 😮

Really cool demo! My first question is "we have known about this method of networking for a while, why don't we deliver mobile internet via a mesh network?" I'm guessing if every phone was a relay, battery life would suffer. Most internet traffic is encrypted, but maybe privacy? how much latency do hops add to the requests? Might try my own demo to experiment with this!

Great video, and we got to see Gary's place too hahhah

Sounds like an interesting enhancement of the MQTT publish/subscribe model.

Gary please add a thanks button

I remember a student flat advert mentioning IOL, indicating they wanted a flatmate with a sense of humour, and perhaps some film knowledge. I was intrigued. It didn't have many other features other than running water and dubious heating.

Can I get access to a bluetooth battery management system via my phone app called Smart BMS over longer distances than the direct connection?

Nice! It would be Interesting to try to get existing BLE devices to use this protocol, if possible? Also, what are the advantages of BLE Mesh over ZigBee and Z-Wave? .. perhaps lower power usage?

Arthur 2: On the Rocks

What security is enabled to secure your network?

It was the movie "Arthur ". It was hilarious!

Great tech for your IoT but if I got it right so is this tech also used for those things you put on your keyrings and that also abused to track people. Should be possible to have close track on people by knowing the Bluetooth id on the phone like most dont shut down Bluetooth when not in use. If used for IoT Network, is possible to bridge it to the Wi-Fi Network too?

Yes but why this protocol and not IP/Matter over multi modal?

When will you update your speedtest G?

i can only think of two Dudly Moore movies. Arthur and 10. i'm thinking Arthur may have had the IOL

So it is like the apple button or what ever it is called. Good video Thanks.

What do you think about quantum computer/processors

what a mesh

We've lived in the Mesh since Jan 2021..

The analogy of a string of lights belonging to a string and all turning on when the string is switched on does not do it justice.

63$?? Hell nah bro..

Is it when my mums so annoyed getting her speaker to work her teeth fall out?

NSA Mesh 🥴

mesh = LAG

Hi thank you for your great work 🤌🏻
