The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) has just released the core specifications for the latest version of its namesake wireless technology. According to the organization, Bluetooth Core Specification version 6.0 introduces new functionality and enhancements to existing features. However, the standout feature of this release appears to be a new option called Bluetooth Channel Sounding.
The Bluetooth SIG claims that Channel Sounding brings "true" distance awareness to Bluetooth-compatible devices, a potentially transformative innovation with significant benefits for the wireless ecosystem.
Supported by a "robust" security layer, the consortium states that Channel Sounding will greatly enhance the user experience for "Find My" solutions, allowing users to pinpoint the exact location of accessories with high accuracy.
Channel Sounding can achieve centimeter-level precision over considerable distances. Moreover, the technology ensures that only authorized users can unlock doors or access secure areas in buildings equipped with wireless security systems.
