" summary

Market numbers claim 5 billion devices shipping yearly and 7.7 billion by 2029 with 9% CAGR, and the roadmap lists Bluetooth Channel Sounding gives distance only, High Data Throughput and Ultra Low Latency HID in active development. Channel sounding is connection‑oriented, measures range not bearing unless combined with direction finding, and relies on a central initiator to schedule measurements so they don’t overlap. Use cases target warehouse asset tracking; scalability and hardware limits are explicitly discussed.
