Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Connectivity Solutions

Energy-Efficient Short-Range Wireless Connections

NeoMikro’s Bluetooth Low Energy implementations deliver reliable, energy-efficient connectivity for battery-powered devices and applications where power consumption is critical. Our expertise spans from simple sensor connections to complex mesh networks and advanced beacon deployments.

What is Bluetooth Low Energy?

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), also known as Bluetooth Smart, is a wireless personal area network technology designed for short-range communication with significantly reduced power consumption while maintaining similar communication range to classic Bluetooth.

BLE is optimized for devices that need to operate for long periods on battery power, transmitting small amounts of data periodically rather than continuous streaming. This makes it ideal for IoT devices, wearables, and sensors.

Key Benefits of BLE

  • Ultra-Low Power Consumption: Extend battery life from months to years with efficient implementations
  • Ubiquitous Compatibility: Connect directly to smartphones, tablets, and laptops without additional hardware
  • Short Connection Times: Establish connections in milliseconds rather than seconds
  • Simplified Protocol Stack: Reduce complexity and overhead compared to classic Bluetooth
  • Robust Security: Implement AES-128 encryption and secure pairing methods
  • Mesh Networking Capability: Create scalable device networks that extend beyond point-to-point connections

BLE Implementation Approaches

NeoMikro offers comprehensive BLE solutions across multiple implementation models

Peripheral Device Development: We create custom BLE devices that broadcast data or respond to connection requests from central devices.

Central Device Implementation: We develop systems that scan for, connect to, and manage multiple peripheral devices.

Mesh Network Design: Our BLE mesh solutions enable many-to-many device communications for scalable networks.

Beacon Deployment: We implement specialized broadcast-only devices for location services and proximity marketing.
