Mesh beacons set to replace iBeacons



Ubudu, based in Paris, is due to launch its first U.S. implementation of uBeacon Mesh, during the first part of next year.

The current standard beacons, such as the iBeacon by Apple, operate by shining a signal to advise you of your current location. These devices are usually mounted on walls or ceilings, by retailers. The beacon sends out small loads of data that send messages, such as ‘Hi, I’m here’, with limited information describing its exact store location. This message is ideal as the customer, when entering the store, will have limited GPS positioning on a smartphone. An app on the phone is able to transmit the data via a data network or Wi-Fi to its server.


For this information to be effective, the store requires expensive networks, and the beacons can only be monitored and controlled within that store.


Mesh beacons are able to convert the current beacons into two-way net-connected networks. The capabilities of mesh beacons would allow a customer standing in an aisle to relay a brief message through the smartphone app to the store, should they require assistance. It will however, be necessary for customer phones to have Bluetooth 4.0.


In both systems, coupon graphics and other components are based in the app. The uBeacons are able to receive the information, such as product info and pricing, through the mesh network and relay it to the customer. It is not necessary for the customer to have cellular data or Wi-Fi as is required with the standard beacons.


Retailers can use a third-party app or create their own. The mesh networks can be controlled through a browser-based dashboard. Ubudu provides both the beacons and the server software.


Conventional beacons transmit the same message at regular intervals, but the mesh beacons transmit messages to various devices, such as smartphones and other beacons.
