nRF BLE devices to wireless connect ARM linux embedded computers

[Andrea Aizza]

Hi, 

any suggested way to utilize nRF52840 dongle as a wireless (BLE) connectwion between multiple ARM linux embedded computers (nodes) ?

nRF52840 would be utilized from each node to both collect data from BT sensors (other simpler devices) and trasmit data to others nodes: ideally with a mesh, else with a star topology. 

If possible/good solution: is there any example to start from? What doule be the expected wireless range (in open air) and bandwidth (bps)?

Thanks,

Andrea

Hi,

ARM linux embedded computers

If you can run the BlueZ Bluetooth Host on these linux computers, then you can use the Zephyr HCI_USB sample, and use the nRF52840 as the Controller.
