Abstract

Lamp equipment having a LED, a driver and a bluetooth module is disclosed. The driver is connected to the LED to control thereof, and the bluetooth module is connected to the driver for receiving power. The bluetooth module supports a mesh-network mode and a beacon mode and switches between this two modes periodically. When working under the mesh-network mode, the bluetooth module is able to execute peer-to-peer transmission with other bluetooth modules within its transmission range, and adjusts its beacon mode's status and beacon content based on received command and data. When working under the beacon mode, the bluetooth module is able to broadcast the beacon content, so as to push message externally and provide micro-location function for the outside.
