We are developing a product based on ble mesh. We are planning to select NRF52832 chip. Currently what is status of ble mesh on this chip. Does nRF open-mesh support this chip? .Is it production ready or stable version?

Hi Nazar,
our BLE Mesh, which will be released after the Bluetooth SIG ratifies the BLE Mesh Specification v1.0, will have support for the nRF52832.
We have a proprietary Mesh implementation, nRF OpenMesh, that supports the nRF52832 with its SDK v12.0.0 framework. The nRF OpenMesh is not being developed further as we are working on the BLE Mesh, but you will be able to perform Over-the-Air updates to update from nRF OpenMesh to our BLE Mesh implementation once it is released.
Best regards
Bjørn
Hi Bjorn, When do you expect to BLE Mesh support up and ready? When will BLE Mesh Spec v1.0 is expected to get ratified? Thanks!
Can you support for me? I met the problem.
I dom't hane Nordic Thingy:52 - IoT Sensor Kit. I only have SoC nRF52832 module. I need problem and need help everyone.
I use Nordic-Thingy52-FW, Nordic-Thingy52-mesh-demo, nrf5_SDK_for_Mesh_v1.0.1_src, s132_nrf52_4.0.5 and build for introduce link:
github.com/.../Nordic-Thingy52-mesh-demo.
I built code for bridge and node. I flashed s132_nrf52_4.0.5 using nRF go studio and firmware using Segger..
Following everyone, I work the method for SoC nRF52832 module. I only show mesh activity and button event on nRF Mesh App.
1. Does it create mesh Network? Can it interface with nRF Mesh APP?
2. To full system can working. Do I need use Nordic Thingy:52 - IoT Sensor Kit ?
Thanks,
Holly,
Hi Holly,
the example is built for the nRF Thingy:52, hence it will probably not function correctly if you flash it the nRF52 DK.
Q1: Yes, the example creates a Bluetooth mesh network, but you need the bridge device to communicate with the nRF Mesh app. The mesh node cannot communicate directly with the nRF Mesh App.
Q2: Yes, for this particular example you will need to use Thingy:52s if you want it to work properly.
Note: This example is based on an old version of the nRF SDK for Bluetooth Mesh, v1.0.1. We have released a newer version, v2.0.1, and I recommend that you take a look at the Light switch demo which can be run on nRF52 DKs.
Best regards
Bjørn
