Any update on a NORDIC development kit that has an array of antenna for direction finding capability introduced in Bluetooth 5.1?

[NORD44]

Hi, 

1. How soon a DK or something like that with an array of antenna to support the direction finding capability introduced in Bluetooth 5.1 will be available?

2. Provided that a DK mentioned above is availabe, can I use any other nordic kit that is upgraded to Bluetooth 5.1 in order to use it as a tag in conjunction with the DK to implement a Real Time Locating System?

Thanks

Hi,

 

1. As we have said throughout the year, we hope to have this ready by Q3/Q4 of 2019.

2. You can use any Bluetooth 5.1 device that supports AoA/AoD and has been programmed accordingly to implement the tag device.

 

Best regards,

Andreas
