BlueRange Mesh is an open-source mesh networking technology based on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). It is used in building automation and other IoT environments and runs on embedded microcontrollers such as the nRF52840 with typical network sizes of 100 nodes.

Mesh participants communicate via BLE connections in a tree topology. Main features include automatic meshing with no manual configuration, self-healing, 128-bit AES encryption, automatic message queueing, splitting of large messages, low power consumption, different device types and a modular software architecture.

BlueRange Mesh was initially created during a masters thesis in 2015 and is now actively developed by BlueRange GmbH in Stuttgart and open-source contributors. The core software is licensed under GNU GPL and available on GitHub.^[1] Additional modules such as mesh-wide over-the-air updates and Modbus support are available with a commercial license.

The innovation is patented as the first connection-based BLE mesh technology.^[2]
