Though more commonly associated with audio streaming and wearable devices, Bluetooth® technology also plays a key role in large-scale device networks. Whether connecting smart home devices and electronic shelf labels in large retail environments or supporting condition monitoring and networked lighting control systems in industrial and commercial settings, Bluetooth Device Network solutions reliably and securely connect tens, hundreds, or thousands of devices within a network.
The recently released 2024 Bluetooth Market Update, developed in collaboration with ABI Research, outlines current trends as well as five-year forecasts for verticals supported by Bluetooth Device Networks. Below, are a few highlights from the annual report.
Bluetooth® Electronic Shelf Labels (ESL) have emerged as a new, high-volume market. ESLs provide always-accurate pricing, increased access to real-time promotions and product information, and a more gratifying and cohesive omnichannel experience. For retailers, they can streamline picking and fulfillment for click and collect shoppers while also accelerating shelf replenishments to optimize product availability on shelves and avoid missed sales.
Bluetooth® Networked Lighting Control (NLC) is experiencing mainstream traction. The proliferation of LEDs, a desire for greater energy efficiency, faster deployment capabilities, and a higher-quality occupant experience are driving the demand for Bluetooth commercial NLC solutions.
Smart home devices continue to play a significant role in the market. Today, Bluetooth® technology is the radio of choice for commissioning in all smart home devices, making it the dominant radio in the smart home. Now, with its inclusion in the Matter standard, the role of Bluetooth technology in the smart home will remain unrivaled for years to come.

2024 Bluetooth® Market Update
The 2024 Bluetooth® Market Update provides updated forecasts and trends in key Bluetooth solution areas and highlights Bluetooth use cases that will drive future growth.
Bluetooth®技術と言えば、一般的に持たれているイメージはオーディオストリーミングやウェアラブルデバイスとの関わりが深いかもしれません。しかしBluetooth技術は、大規模なデバイスネットワークにおいても重要な役割を果たしています。スマートホームデバイスや小売店での大規模な電子棚札（ESL）の接続であれ、あるいは製造や商業環境での状態監視やネットワーク照明制御システムのサポートであれ、Bluetoothのデバイスネットワークソリューションは、ネットワーク内にある数十、数百、数千台のデバイスを確実かつ安全に接続します。
このほどBluetooth SIGがABI Researchとの共同調査で発表した「2024年Bluetooth®︎市場動向」では、Bluetoothデバイスネットワークがサポートする各垂直市場の現在の動向と、今後5年間の予測を明らかにしています。以下に、年次レポートからのハイライトをご紹介します。
Bluetooth®電子棚札が新たな大規模市場として台頭しています。 電子棚札（ESL）は、常に正確な価格表示、リアルタイムプロモーションや商品情報へのアクセスの向上に加え、より満足度が高く包括的なオムニチャネル体験を提供します。小売業者にとっては、クリック＆コレクトの買い物客対応におけるピッキングと配送を合理化する一方で、棚の補充を加速させ、商品在庫を最適化して、販売機会の逸失を防ぐことが可能になります。
Bluetooth®ネットワーク照明制御が主流になりつつあります。LED 照明の急速な普及や、エネルギー効率の向上、迅速に導入可能な機能性、より上質な利用者体験に対する欲求が原動力となり、Bluetooth®業務用ネットワーク照明制御（NLC）ソリューションの需要が高まっています。
スマートホームデバイスが引き続き市場における大きな役割を果たします。現在、Bluetooth®技術はあらゆるスマートホームデバイスのコミッショニングに採用され、スマートホームにおける主要な位置を占めています。さらに Matter 規格に採用されたことにより、スマートホームにおける Bluetooth 技術の役割は、今後数年にわたり他の追随を許さないものとなるでしょう。
