Unlike traditional point-to-point BLE connections, mesh networking scales to thousands of nodes, making it ideal for smart lighting, building automation, sensor networks, and industrial IoT deployments. The Bluetooth SIG standardized BLE Mesh in 2017, and since then, multiple open-source implementations have emerged for building self-hosted mesh networks without vendor lock-in.</p>
