ESP BLE Mesh v0.5 Beta has been released

[SombraRPK]

Wangcheng, thank you very much. I think this topic is all about ble mesh, my issue is more like just obtain the UUID of the board. I give you this link, is the topic I opened to try to solve this issue of mine. I'd be so glad if you could take a look.

Hello
I still have a question about the power consumption of a low power node. I use the ES32 NodeMCU board which consumes 33mA. This is far too high for battery operation. How can I further reduce the electricity? Are there any meaningful settings in the menuconfig?

What is the plan for zephyr mesh vs nimble mesh going forward? Will both be supported? Is there still a plan to finish porting the full btdm zephyr stack as an alternative to bluedroid?

Hi Espressif SDK Developer,

I have checked last status of BLE MESH v0.5 Beta branch and found that there is no any further commit after 2 Nov, 2018 into that branch.

So, Would you please let me know like can we use this branch as stable branch to continue development for BLE MESH related stuffs.

Also, We have one request in which our client is looking for a commercial available BLE (5.0) Mesh GW on which he can do application development for BLE and other services to support his sensor devices.

So, Please suggest me to move further for that to meet our client's requirement and how it can be fulfilled. Also, Please suggest me from license terms as well like is there any conflict to use it.

Hi,

I am new to ESP32 development, but very much interested in the BLE Mesh technology. I own a couple of ESP32-PICO-KIT V4 and wanted to know if they too are supported for running BLE mesh example code from here: https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tr ... -mesh-v0.5

Thanks for help in advance!!

Hi,

The board (ESP32-PICO-KIT V4 ) is supported for running BLE mesh example code.

Thanks Wangcheng!!

I have programmed an application with an LPN. Measurements of the current have shown that the LPN works only in the light sleep. The current is 2.5mA. Why is the LPN not in the deep sleep that is a mistake in my application or is a deep sleep generally not possible?

1. We only use the zephyr mesh now.We have done a series of improvements.
2. We have no relevant plans for the time being.

we are working on it，will support ble mesh low power later.
