Didn't know that Bluetooth can be used as a mesh network, super low distance for stable connection or ?

~30m or more. but this app relays as well, so could be much larger. implementing point to point wifi will take it to 300m or more. i'll implement that next. View quoted note →
We use Bluetooth intercoms using a dynamic mesh network on our helmets for snowmobiling. They’re usually good for around 1km or so before they cut out through open fields. In the dense forest it will be less. Once a rider catches back up to being within range, it automatically reconnects.
They've already begun doing it for our bodies. Jabbed and swabbed people are now emitting 1-4 unique bluetooth MAC-IDs. You can test it yourself with your modile device.
